Description
It's been a while since I had spent this long on a digital painting, but doing this one was so much fun that I expect that I will be doing on soon again
I present the two mascots of the Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver versions: Ho-Oh and Lugia. I've drawn them here in the environments that you would find them in-game. For Ho-Oh: Ecrutreak City's Tin Tower, and for Lugia, a secret underground lake from which it emerges from a huge waterfall.
I've actually come to like both Ho-Oh and Lugia, although admittedly I was more of a Lugia fan at first. The newer Pokemon generations do have some nice designs, but I really think that the first two generations are the best.
I'd definitely like to do more of these in the near future

This is actually really, really great. The colouring and contrast works really well, so

This is awesome. I actually like Ho-oh better than Lugia, because HeartGold was the game that pretty much introduced me to Pokemon (yeah, I'm a pretty new Pokefan). And to think you did this all on the computer... it's amazing how much computers can do nowadays.

Thank you! I think computers are good and all, but I think it's more important to learn how to use traditional media first. Even now, I still favor traditional mediums

... I think I like Ho-Oh best. I especially like the black that looks like it's splattering from it's wings. Then there's the background.. with the Ecruteak buildings, sunset, Tin Tower.. Not to mention what looks like blood on the tips of the talons.
Two things I see that's off on Ho-Oh.. The ring on it's neck isn't white, but a light green color, and when flying, the wings don't look exactly as big as they should The feathers should be sprawled out more, fluffier looking, and overall a smidge bigger.. Compared to it's head, they're quite small. These are the only things about Ho-Oh that bother me a bit. Other than that, fantastic work! --You just earned yourself another Watcher! <3
The location for Lugia is 'Whirl Islands' by the way! c:
