I got tired of seeing that Hoenn Pokémon entry, so I decided to write a new one. :P (I do plan on doing something like that Hoenn Pokémon entry in the future, but it'll have to be after this Generation 6 stuff calms down.)

The main reason for my slow art turnout is the projects I'm working on, but with Generation 6 looming over us I've also been hesitant to start working on new art. When it hits I don't want to be in the middle of a piece of art. With the Generation 6 news coming this weekend, depending on what we get, I should have something to upload. As October draws closer we'll probably get flooded with news, leaks, and tons of Pokémon for me to draw. Like Unova, if many Pokémon are put out at once there will likely come a point where I won't be able to draw each Pokémon as it is leaked / revealed. When that happens, I'll just have to draw a few, then get to the others later.

As news is leaked and posted on the various fan sites, I'll know about it, so sending me notes about the news or posting about the news for me to see is mostly not needed (but appreciated). :) I check various locations in all hours of the day when possible (in the morning before work, after work, before bed) so I'm usually up-to-date with everything. For example, I'm keeping an eye on this Movie 16 "Mewtwo forme" news. If we get its Sugimori art, I can can begin making art for it. (I want to make some now, but the images we have block out too much of its body.)

Anyway, this entry is just a way to say "I'm keeping a close eye on the news and I'll be posting Gen. 6 art as fast as possible!"

I think it's pretty cool. The way it can fan out the parts on the side of its head into frills is pretty neat, as well.

The only tip I can really think of is to study his work often, to see how he shades certain shapes. For example, if you're making a Fakemon with a similar body shape to a real Pokémon, look at Sugimori's art for that Pokémon and study the way the shadows are shaped, and how he uses the colors.

Aside from that, all I can really say is to always practice whenever you get a chance. The shading is probably the hardest part to getting the art to look right, so it'll take a while.

Yeah, I've been looking over that picture since it was posted and it's definitely an interesting bit of information. I'm waiting until more information is released before making any artwork, though.
