I'm protecting her pichu from an evil pokemon, for I don't fear any pokemon no matter how scary they are. Many of you probably don't care for this, but I liked the idea and felt like I should post it here too. I used Fireworks for my linearts, and the background/shading done in photoshop. The bg is lineless here, which I felt appropriate and I kinda like the grass but I feel there's still more room for improvement.
Please let me know what to improve, whether it's the style or linearts.

Sparks! Protector of the Diapered! Hehe <3
Very nice, I actually rather like how this came out, you took a few little nicks and worked with them - IE the paws sunk into the grass, something that most artists would probably've neglected in a moment of absent mindedness...
Meaning I probably would've forgot o 3o.

u and your friend look very good, and so does the grass and sky ^_^
u got the BG absolutely whipped (in a good way haha) =3
the dog anatomy seem a little off, but the only way to get better is to keep doing it, so is still pretty good, and improvement over earlier ones for sure >wO
colors on u and the other chu seem a little bright for night, but as above, one step at a time gets it done =3

Doesn't seem a little rip off of Ashley's photoshop style of background, only in my own style?
I couldn't quite pinpoint what was wrong with the anatomy of the hound, though digisushi said the head was a bit big for the body. Anything else you think may be off?
Also for the characters they may be a bit too bright for when I started I was gonna make this look more like a late afternoon scene, but thought a night scene would be better.
Thank you bro for your detailed comments! ^_^

well, for suggestion, the back leg could use some more 'animal hip' to it.... i.e., it looks too much like the front leg, like straight down and not enuff of the round curve... but no, i dont think u ripped off anyone's art, your just getting better is all >wO
dats all i can think of myself, but yea, agree on the head... would be OK if it was facing us, but perspective is kinda opposite there ^^;
rest is pretty awsome tho =3

awwww... that houndour doesn't seem that evil!! it looks so cute!!
k-puz is right at the anatomy of the houndour, you made its head very big. I can't blame you for that though, as dog anatomy is difficult ^_^ (at least for me)
At the other extreme of the critic, your pichu has an awesome expression!! very cool!! you should study more tha official art for pichu though as you did his arms too wide.
The strawberry cream colored pichu at the back seems very delicious!! (I think I'm hungry right now)
About the background, it is too dark to see the details but I think it's done very good, like in a non-moon night were there's no moon to illumine.

lol, houndour are evil because they love to chase pichus *runs*
I find dog anatomy to be very difficult because I don't have a dog at home to observe, so all I got is references from photos and official art. Houndour I thought would have a bigger head since its smaller and cuter than houndoom, but I see it's still too big if I were to picture it at a different angle.
I also think the pichu arms look a little big, once now that I've seen it closer, but I guess more reffing is needed. I used to look at official art a lot more before and I didn't reference this one so maybe I should study it more.
But thank you for your comments, they're always fun to read! ^_^
