Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
thxx :D
by corel i assume you mean corel painter and not corelDraw, but no. everything here is done by photoshop. nothing is as wonderfully flexible as good old photoshop. :)
@pirika: lol no i dont have a deviantart. im not a serious enough "artist" to have my own gallery rofl. in fact i hesitate in applying the label "artist" at all. i would much rather be a draw-er xD
@NiLink: no no take your time :O
i wanted to draw cynthia since she's super badass, and of course i wanted to include her trademark pokemon, garchomp.
so here is cynthia (who looks a little funny but i cant quite work out why)
here is garchomp
here is cynthiachomp
wait wtf? they look like they have absolutely nothing to do with each other. cynthia is just looking goth-emo/umbreonish as she always does and garchomp is just loitering in the background. i might as well just draw them as two separate pics. what do you guys think?
edit:
hey what about this!
...
huh...
it looks a bit like some bizarre human-pokemon interspecies relationship.
I totally agree that they both look strange together in the same pic, but what if you turned garchomp's head so that it was looking at the viewer? That way it would bring some unity to the picture!

this sounds about right; it was my first thought when you raised the complaint that they didn't sit well together in the same image. cynthia looking aloof seems fine by me since she is the trainer so long as garchomp seems engaged
the gyarados seascape is incredible, i love the dark, broody colour scheme. positively chaotic!
i think that maybe if you had some more character interaction the picture would look much nicer! they both look great man, you have some really fantastic talent, but i think its always interesting when there are two characters responding to one another in the same image
