Description Not sure whether to call this ‘‘Viridian Forest’’ or “Catch That Pikachu!”
This scene was all to familiar to me when the Pokémon games first came to the USA. In all of the Kanto games my first two Pokémon would always be Charmander and Pikachu who is located in the Viridian Forest. Coded in as a rare, I always had the hardest time trying to catch one considering my Charmander would be a Charmelion when I finally found one.
Last month I was looking through my old games and found my Pokémon Blue. It had no data so I decided to play it for a while. I found out why to because when I saved the game after beating Brock and cut it back on all the data was gone NEVER BUY SECONDHAND GAMES. But the blast to the past brought this image to my head and I grabbed my sketch book and started drawing.
I can’t draw most Pokémon in the anime style like the show so I have to draw them in my own style. I like it but I still have a long way to go on my inking TT^TT May upload the sketch I don’t know yet but I wish I had a program to color it

You could call it "Pikachu Gone Wild", "Into the Viridian" or something similar XD This is an awesome drawing even if it doesn't look like the anime ^0^

I think there are some free programs like GIMP. I think Inkscape works too.

KikiFlamer In reply to Sameunagi [2013-06-29 11:36:53 +0000 UTC]

i like the title "Into the Viridian" ghaa there are so many options XD
i tried GIMP but never could firgure it out. inkspace? i'll have to check that one out

Sameunagi In reply to KikiFlamer [2013-07-18 02:29:00 +0000 UTC]

*Inkscape


I've used it for vectoring (although I have never posted a vector here) but it should work for colouring

and GIMP isn't that hard. If you had experience with any other tool like Photoshop or SAI (I only had the month trial of SAI ;-; ) then you should be familiar with the interface.


I haven't used GIMP in a long time so I don't really remember it much.
