I’M DONE THE LINEART!!!

I am GLAD you asked because I LOVE sharing the process of creating stuff!!! I won't be explaining everything there is you need to do to make a skin, since there's plenty of tutorials for that.... (this is the one I followed that uses Blockbench for making the skin)

ANYWAY

I tried to explain specifically the stuff I bumped into on the way but hope it's any helpful nontheless (and that more people would try doing this. I'm telling you making cpm mod skins is VERY fun more people need to try it!!!!!!!! The end result is especially worth it)

SO my first mistake was to look at the boy. The second was thinking It'll only be just one little sketchie. The third being thinking I could try and put a gradient in there without trying to actively shade it.

But all the while no regrets

Woe your boys upon thee!!! @naivesilver @lizardthelizard

If you could give advice to any artist trying to improve, what would it be?

Study from real life! Even if you're not wanting to draw realistically, if will give you a better understanding of how the subject in question works. Heck, tracing is a really good tool for better comprehending how to draw things. I used to avoid this and I cannot even begin to tell you just how more easily things clicked into place just by doing some proper figure drawing. This is also something you'll always need to be doing! No matter how skilled you are, you'll always need a good reminder of the basics.

I also recommend doing practice sketches on the daily. And by that I don't mean churning out fully finished art, I mean just doing simple warmups. Just drawing a page full of shapes and squiggles is good enough to keep your drawing hands limber!

And!!!! Lastly I'd say make sure to draw outside of your comfort zone whenever possible. Sometimes you gotta make that push, and it WILL look wonky and incorrect on the first few passes, but if you persevere and try something new, you'll find yourself more on the road you're wanting to go anyways. I like drawing simplistic but shooting for stuff that's more detailed and realistic has helped me fine tune my style a lot more than I anticipated! Try something new! You'll suprise yourself with what you've learned :]

Art is a constant learning process and no matter where you or anyone is at with their skill, we all got a long road ahead of ourselves. Keep trying new things!

sorry if this is a strange comment but i literally never see characters drawn with anything but perfect hairlines so your scar design noted to not have that makes me quite happy :"3 your art is awesome and full of transgender swag

YAY!!! no yeah hes fuckign. bald (hes not). it started as a recurring unintentional character detail when drawing him i noticed but frankly he looks good like that so i should really start pushing it further. i summon 100 loves for all patchy haired and bald(ing) people youre so attractive its unreal

💬 can I be silly and ask for Blue. Like I know you said they're best friends but gotta know more about Jaide's thoughts (/lh

OHHH IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED, THIS IS ACTUALLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE IMPORTANT ASPECTS ABT THE COLOR PALLET TRIO

i have a couple of old loreposts under that tag (#color pallet trio) about the trio's development but I'll focus more on blue and jaide here.

jaide was once a neighbor to both blue and red, they were all friends before red and blue set off to be actual trainers - jaide wasn't interested at the time. they were the usual neighborhood best friends doing whatever dumb things together.

between jaide and blue, blue loved to flaunt his victories to jaide, and she was always there to cheer and celebrate about it because... they were friends! though this was a bit on the negative side for red, who had a little puppy crush on jaide - it was upsetting at the time for red. we all know how self centered blue was as a kid.

when red became champion but fled to mt. silver (this is explained better in other posts), blue was assigned to be viridian's gym leader which upsetted him, but it also made him learn to be more humble about his victories. he and jaide still continued to be in contact, however red was out of the picture for now. blue would come back to jaide and hang out with her again. they become closer, her sweet and friendly personality starts to rub off of blue and he becomes less bitchy and mean because of her. (which explains his friendly yet competitive demeanor in sun and moon). she also kind of. corrects his asshole behavior sometimes KAJSSJAKSKA

his pokemon also inspired jaide to learn more about pokemon in general, she wasn't much of a battling person but she came to appreciate the difference unique details about each creature which inspired her to be a catcher - to appreciate the colorful variety of pokemon. they would soon lose contact as jaide moves to johto but still maintained interaction through devices and e-mailing each other.

jaide became a remarkable catcher, and she was reccomended to professor oak under blue's suggestion which brought them together again as adults. at that same time, blue, with a more mature and composed personality - wants to bring back the whole gang together so he tries to reach out to red and asks for him to come back, since he genuinely actually missed what they had together as a trio.

while jaide did not directly meet red, blue mentions that red would come back which made her really happy. they'd plan to meet up together but jaide was quite the busy person, as she's already been to several regions for her catching profession and would still have her schedule full for a hang out session.

and then alola happened 💥💥💥💥
