I've seen another topic regarding Video Game Fan Art but I wanted to start a thread where anyone who loves drawing can share their own art. Critiques are welcome (just be respectful). I'm majoring in Game Art and I make comic books for fun. I love drawing and really want to put myself out there. I know I have lots of work to do to be a great artist and I strive to do better. Here's two pieces I've worked on since I began attending my college. This is one I worked on yesterday and into earlier today. Took me awhile to work on the trainer. I decided to just use art from Pokémon Dream World as it works better with my art style than the standard Ken Sugiromi's. I've been wanting to do something like this for awhile and I'm glad it turned out good. I regret 'rushing' through it though as the trainer could have looked better had I spent more time. Maybe next time I won't have trouble drawing him again but spend more time tweaking and fixing things. Oh, and he's supposed to look like me (in a 'cartoony' sort of way- like a caricature but not really if you know what I mean. I'll be practicing drawing my favorite Pokémon instead of simply importing them over. I had fun putting in the Pokémon as I had to adjust their height correctly ex. I'm 5'6 and Meganium is 5'11- though I'm not entirely sure they are measuring it standing on it's two back feet; Golem is 4'07 and Carracosta is 3'11 which I made a mistake as it seems that the two are the same height but they're not supposed to be. I also regret not putting Torkoal in as I love turtles and it's one of my favorites. This is one piece I made awhile ago. It was supposed to be a street with a clock tower in the middle (you can at least see the clock tower in it in some form) and working on perspective. Then, I found the ruler tool in Sketchbook Pro and decided to just draw lines and came up with this. You can see different 'faces' in it as well which I thought was pretty cool as one of them wasn't intentional and reminds me of a character from Super Paper Mario. One of my friends said it reminds him of the Black Eyed Peas recent album because of the choices of color I made. This only took me 2 hours to make since it's really simple. I call it "Perfectly Imperfect". EDIT: Fix'd the size of the second picture. Sorry about that TBD.

I'm currently in the middle of doing a little personal drawing (that I plan to have up here pretty soon!) and I just want to say to any of the artists here who can draw noses and mouths: how.

I cannot begin to tell you how long it took to get a smug expression right, that's a pain I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

Currently I am working on a Halloween diorama. Those are the pumpkins that will be on top of a hill (that is currently drying) and those with faces will be lit from inside with diodes and the wiring will be below and have a switch. The big one will have red light and the other 2 will be green.

The hill they are sitting on will also have grass and autumn leaves that I gathered from the streets around here. I will cut them up in smaller pieces and varnish them

@Zuljaras That looks rad, reminds me of this episode of Power Rangers (one of the best episodes of the whole show).

@Snatcher @Kermit1 Thank you both! I think I will add some fences and stuff around the pumpkins in the following days.

But before that I will start my special project ... Gravelord Nito from Dark Souls!
