Reshi is bored again. Sketch dumps 'n' such.

Because I must be active somewhere.
[hr][/hr]Hello.
My name is Sapphire, commonly known as Rapid or Reshiram in other places. I’m an avid gamer, although I tend to drift from place to place and have difficulties staying grounded or committed to one activity. However, I am fond of drawing and partake in the practise often. Unfortunately I do not leave my artwork for show anywhere often enough so I am prone to losing my work. I have decided to take action by making a thread here to leave my nonsense, in hopes that I will also become a regular to the PMU site again.
(I see the roleplay section is looking rather baron again.)

So without further ado I will put some of my more recent works up. Please remain aware to the fact that I mostly sketch and will rarely see any of my artworks through to a presentable level. Regardless criticism is appreciated.

[right][spoilerWingull Practice:u50cl4v5]Long story short I was drawing a Wingull Gijinka and some friends sent me images of Wingulls to copy. Including a certain Tales character. The writing was explanatory for them because my mic was off.

Oh! I think I have seen you around a looong while back.

Your art is really good! I like it a lot and I home to see more from you c: If you ever take requests let me know c:

Ayyy. Sapphy! Welcome back. :)
It’s nice to see people post in the art subforum again.

[Waits for more art.]

Hello, your name seems familiar too, but yes it would have most likely been quite a while back.

Thanks for the compliment, as my artist’s block is down I’m doing a lot more work as of late so for the time being you can expect frequent updates. I can take requests but I cannot guarantee anything will be made unfortunately, but I suppose it doesn’t hurt to ask.

Thank you. The creative section can always do with more activity.

I didn’t really do anything much of mention during September but most of the sketches were me trying to figure out Pokemon anatomy.

dat potedo tho , haha
Those sketches all look very cool! I can’t wait to see the finished product of the Pidgeot!!!

ALSO, HI THERE! HAPPY TO SEE YOU PERUSING THE FORUMS!! :D

Hi! Long time no see. Or speak rather, I’ve seen you all around this place.

Thanks for the comment, I haven’t posted it yet but the lineart has been completed and the colouring is halfway done for the Mega Pidgeot.

I think the fusions look really neat! I don’t really look at them often, but these are cool.
Also, potatedo. On a couch. Best part, clearly.

Oh, and of course, hello again Sapphy. I haven’t seen you in a while.

Potayterrr iz mah pryyde.

Thank you, I do enjoy doing the fusions, it helps me remember Pokemon designs. I normally draw off from my own memory, with exception to that and body studies obviously.
(Sapph does not recommend drawing without references.)

Hahaha, yeah. I’ve been all over the place as of late. To be honest I mostly lurk when I’m playing PMU and I normally just used the forums for RPs as it were. ( :':OTZ) Hoping to see some more familiar faces, as well as new ones.
