FFFFF POKEMON, I WILL NEVER ESCAPE YOUR GRASP :icondesiremeplz:

Characters from left to right: May (Ruby/Sapphire), Lyra (HG/SS), Red (RBY), Ethan (HG/SS), Dawn (Diamond/Pearl/Platinum)

Because I've been playing since the RBY days, I decided to keep all the character designs old school (ie, Red doesn't look like the revamped one in FR/LG and Brawl). I also went by the official designs, so Dawn's hair is gray and Ethan's is blue.

I included a pretty healthy mix of generation I-IV pokemon, but I focused more on the second gen since HGSS is the current game out. I love drawing pokemon, they're so ridiculously fun :happycry:

As for the Cameron Photography logo, anyone who has played HGSS should hopefully recognize Cameron, the creepy old man/photographer that wanders around Johto and Kanto to take pictures of you and your party. He pops up at the most ridiculous places, like Ice Path and Mount Silver. I don't even know how he gets there 8|

A MILLION THANKS TO :icone1n: FOR MAKING THE MOST FANTASTIC LOGO FOR ME and helping me with the anatomy... and hands... and everything else. The logo is my favorite part of the drawing, srsly :heart:

This is an incredibly beautiful piece, I have to say.

I almost didn't notice that the picture's color was done by markers! So crisp and clean! I myself know for a fact that I could never color a picture with markers, lest it look very sloppy.

But this artist? Never. No streaks, no mistakes, and smooth shading. Did I mention how impressed I am by that? Especially on the hair! Love it!

I also love how the artist took the time to include members from each generation of Pokemon (although I know this was drawn long before Black and White came out, but regardless). I do miss seeing the third generation of Pokemon, it seems like they don't get enough love these days!

Final thing: the inclusion of the Cameron Photography Logo. So creative! I would never have thought to put a custom logo like that in the picture. Great job!

Overall, the piece is wonderful. I don't know what other words I could use to describe such a magnificent piece!

This piece is very beautiful, as a marker artist myself I can tell the artist put a great deal of effort and skill into this piece.. The the amount of detail and precision in the textures and shading is alot of work and requires an equal amount of experience to pull off, this artist has accomplished this aspect with perfection. As for the drawing itself, the artist's style is very refined and professional, not only being able to take on the designs of the trainers but the Pokemon themselves creating a picture that fits together perfectly.

The theme is something that the fans of the games will get right away; it being a feature from the newer games in which a photographer takes photographs of the player's character on certain days. As for the characters themselves the artist included at least one from each generation, with a addition being the new female player character from the HeartGold & SoulSilver remakes of the second generation games. Another thing to note is that the artist included at least one starter from each of the four generations and some of the various Pokemon encountered throughout the games.

All in all this is a wonderful piece that allows the the viewer to reflect on the previous generations just in time for generation V. This an excellent piece from and excellent artist!

omggg so good!!
I personally like Dawn and May's character... Lyra is somewhat too childish ( the original design of gamefreak)

But your drawing made Lyra look much more better ;)

I love those characters, and I love pokemon. Cameron reminds me of the random photographer from Earthbound with the way he pops up everywhere.

I love this, but I do have one complaint. You should have put all the Pokemon each trainer has. But I'll give you that one because it is time-consuming.
