Artist's Comments

This is Velotus, an original Pokémon character from my fan fiction, Lost Evolution. [link] Of course, to everyone not interested in my fic, it's just a badass-looking Grovyle, and that's fine by me too. 8D

Dedicated to :icongrovyle48:, as a... bribe, of sorts. Velotus is his (and mine, for that matter) favourite character in the fic, and he wanted a picture of him looking badass and Velotusy, so I was all too happy to oblige. :3

Pokémon and Grovyle are (c) Game Freak
Velotus is (c) me.

Whooo! Awesome. 8D The shading is awesome and he definately looks badass and Velotusy. Though I still don't forgive you for what happens in two chapters from the part I'm at. xP This does help a little.

And who says you're no good at smooth shading? At any rate this is awesome (and mine :3) and the leaf blades look great though it kind of looks like his head leaf is about to be cut by one. xP The more I look at this the more I like it. And instead of risking sounding like a fanboy, I'll now end this comment. Ahem, Velotus is awesome.

Oh, and I still don't forgive you!

Yay for badass and Velotusy! I think the light sources and shading particularly helped bring that out. I still say I'm no good at smooth shading, though - seriously, where on this picture is there a particularly decent example of smooth shading?

The Leaf Blades are a large part of what made me turn into a gibbering fangirl while I was drawing this, I think. I just fiddled with various tools and things and suddenly they looked all sharp and shiny and vicious and sdghfghjfrghjfg <3. Velotus is awesome. Though heaven forbid you risking sounding like a fanboy!

And now you're contractually obliged to read those chapters on Friday. Both of them. >:3

As for the smooth shading, the light dimming on the trees as it moves away from the leaf blades and how it's darker around the corners of the picture.

Yes, he is awesome, but I'm not a fanboy!

Can't I skip over the second one and read the one after it instead?

*is not like Velotus... or maybe he is. he doesn't know. But he doesn't want to be psychologically tortured by that chapter*

That smooth shading is hardly decent. I just randomly attacked it with a tool that gives a really faint, wide spread of colour. It's not much use for anything except vague lighting effects.

Of course you're not a fanboy. :> You just keep telling yourself that.

The one after that chapter has Velotus going through all sorts of psychological fun in the aftermath, anyway, so you really can't escape it. Best to read 26 first, though. =P

And, well, we'll see how much you're like Velotus when you read it. :3

Why don't I just curl up in a corner right now, or better yet, stare at the ceiling?

You're too sadistic for your own good! D:

It isn't sadism. It's more along the lines of this: [link]

(TV Tropes? Ohnoez.)

Yeah? Well *grumble*. Tomayto-tomahto, if you ask me!

(Luckily I was on there anyways.)

You better hope that I'm not eating while reading!
