"Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo~!" (She's a Lugia, so I suppose that sorta explains the lung capacity...also she's really happy to see you c:)

Meeeeeeeeeep, meet Lila! She's a big ol Lugia that's full of love and joy~ She might be a bit naive, clumsy, and talkative at times, but Lila's still a sweetheart, enjoying hugs and being a playful gal overall. (There is also more possible lore to her if I bother to write about it in a story or something in the future, but that's the main gist for herrrr)

I-if you couldn't tell, I had a lot of fun drawing herrr~ :) I ummm, seemed to increase the canvas size over and over while trying to emphasize her (belly) size through sketches until I realized that the way I was doing proportions made that kinda hard to achieve, just kept running into the same feeling of "mmmmm, need to make this canvas bigger"...but then I never scaled down for the lineart, eheheh.. But anyway, it was still a neat draw! Not perfect, but neat nonetheless. I hope to draw Lila more in the future, she feels like a fun character to me~ Also I could say this about a ton of character posts I've got, but while it'd be neat to do ref sheets and go more in detail with bios, I'll just have these introductory drawings for nowwww.

Fun Facts
-Ever since I saw this series of posts on Cohost, I-I guess I've gained an interest in ummm, "big slappy tails", so to speak >///////////> So I reflected such in Lila, meeeep.
-While drawing this and listening to a MIKA album on Spotify, MIKA - Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) came on, without me realizing that such was in the album, aaaaaaaaaaa
-A tiny bit late with the timing of this post, but happy belated Lugia daaaay c: I was honestly unaware until I found out about such in a server and yes, I now understand that Pokemon days mostly come from pokedex numbers correlating to the dates and usually aren't just made up; If you're aware of the context of this clarification, you're entitled to a veteran's discount...also sorry
