For Lack of a Witty Title

Energy Storm · Oct 17th, 2010, 10:50:57 PM

REQUEST AT YOUR OWN RISK

To be done:
Magikarp vs. Ubers (and Inconsistents) for Iggdrasil
Smug Snivy for Tataki
Satan Clefairy for LevitatingLamprey

Finished:
Hollywood Undead for Homeslice

The title says it all. Fatecrashers: Art Thread of Fate. Icepick: nICEPICKtures. Scepticallistic: Scepticallifragilisticexpealidocious. DougJustDoug: ArtJustArt. Energy Storm: ... ... ...Well. I suppose that one would come in due time.

With all those epic artists like Yilx and Fatecrashers running amok Smeargle's Studio, I guess my art is probably the NU of the artistic tier.

Nevermind that. Just got my tablet yesterday, and came up with some sketches to test it. Definitely not the best art around, so...don't get your hopes up.

Staraptor, the first bit of art I created.

...

Pikachu's Enlightenment

...

Even the mighty Gyarados stands no chance against the even mightier Clefairy

...

Forretress used Rapid Spin! Forretress blew away the pointed stones! Forretress blew away the spikes! It's super effective! Skarmory fainted.

...

Kingdra for Sever_Crash

...

Triple Battle

...

Random Sketch Time!

Voltorb and Electrode

...

WTF is Maggyo anyways?

...

Jirachi whips out his Scarf and Troll Face for another successful day of trolling.

...

Dragonite recalls his former glory days

...

Mamoswine for Persistence

...

WIPs:

Seed Bombin'

...

I like it, it has a style that is different from the other artists. It is pretty BAMF imo.

Nastyjungle · Oct 17th, 2010, 11:01:10 PM

I like it a lot!

The background has good contrast and the shading style is very unique.
Keep up the great work, I can't wait to see more!

**Fatecrashers** · Oct 17th, 2010, 11:03:25 PM

a cool concept with a nice execution
i can see a lot of potential here
keep it up

Energy Storm · Oct 17th, 2010, 11:09:36 PM

Oh and by the way, does anyone know why these aren't showing up as PNG?

Astruvis · Oct 17th, 2010, 11:13:48 PM

Irony.
Anyway upload it to imageshack and link it that way, it should work if you do that, though I'm not quite sure. I believe smogon encodes all it's images in jpg because it saves bandwidth.

Energy Storm · Oct 17th, 2010, 11:17:35 PM

LOL I know right? Ok, I'll do that. Thanks Astuvis!

Xav · Oct 18th, 2010, 4:08:34 AM

I really love your style, it's different from all the other artist here on Smogon. I especially like Clefairy and Gyarados and Forretress using Rapid Spin.

DeadSub · Oct 18th, 2010, 4:16:08 AM

Yeah love the art, and like other have posted unique style. Hope to see more coming. And WTF is maggyo?

Fatecrashers be stealin' art critique criteria!

Anyway I love these, especially the expression on Skarmory! How about a Mamoswine, just to test you ;)

Charmed · Oct 18th, 2010, 3:04:43 PM

That Staraptor is so high fashion <3 And the Skarmory/Forretress is hilarious.

I do love your Sceptile avatar, as well. Chic.

Energy Storm · Oct 18th, 2010, 6:51:18 PM

Oh, Sceptile was made by Fate (it's all in the siggy). He's one of those epic artists that makes me feel bad.

Persistence, I'll work on the Mamoswine after I get some Smog work done.

Snorlaxe · Oct 18th, 2010, 6:54:48 PM

lol, i love the forretress + skarmory piece, skarmory looks so distraught that it's really rather cute. keep it up!

Bucky · Oct 19th, 2010, 12:32:15 AM

That Gyardos is awesome-sauce.

Energy Storm · Oct 20th, 2010, 5:48:57 PM

Oh, and requests are perfectly welcome, but please note that I only have time to work on them on the weekends.

Energy Storm · Oct 23rd, 2010, 10:59:38 PM

Here's a Mamoswine.

Never hide from your problems; look them straight in the eye!

...

Server_Crash · Oct 24th, 2010, 1:44:49 AM

Fun fact: Electrode is white on top and red on the bottom

Anyway, all of them look sweet. Can you do a kingdra of some sort?

I'm pretty sure the eyes on the red 'top' of the electrode are supposed to look like they've been drawn on with a pen or something, disguising itself as a Voltorb, even though it's real eyes are visible on the white part.

Oh, I didn't realize that, thanks.

Energy Storm · Oct 24th, 2010, 2:18:17 PM

Yep, if you look closely, you can see Electrode's big grin underneath the "eyes".

keys2tkingdom · Oct 24th, 2010, 4:42:19 PM

The Mamoswine image made me laugh

Energy Storm · Oct 30th, 2010, 10:51:16 PM

Here's a Kingdra for Server_Crash.

KidX · Oct 30th, 2010, 10:53:18 PM

Can I get a Doryuzu?

Energy Storm · Oct 30th, 2010, 10:55:44 PM

Sure!

By the way, here's a triple battle Ononokusu, Desukan, and Shibiduron vs Koromori, Pokabu, and Munna.
