With the Community Day wrap up event in Pokémon Go I thought I would share all of the Community Day illustrations I've made this year!
drawin the dex collection 4!
#543 - #544 - #545. As Venipede evolves, its carapace becomes a dull cocoon as its insides liquify, and if anything tries to break it, it'll stab them aggressively until dead. It regains its lustrous carapace after evolving and becomes docile, giving rides to smaller pokémon and humans it meets.

I had a pretty solid idea for scolipede itself: Make it more buggy, reference centipede anatomy, but keep its horse whimsy. I did many study of centipede faces and anatomy to figure out how to place their antennae and ultimate legs (thats what the final pair of legs that look like antennae on the end of centipedes is named!). I wanted to keep some of the horn shapes, and also have the tail look like a false head like it does in many centipedes.
The weird eye shape of these guys is referencing the ocelli of centipedes: forming compound eyes. The spikes are actually referencing a milipede instead of a centipede, Desmoxytes purpurosea, who have big pink spikes. The empty spot is meant to look like a little saddle :) and the difference in color is because i think bright green feels more toxic paired with red than the greyish purple the canon one has.
venipede was easy, adapting the canon simplicity and then just adding some centipede anatomy like the antennae below the carapace.
whirlipede however, was pretty annoying. I didnt know what to do with it! i didnt want to just make a wheel but didnt want for it to just look like a venipede curled up. i decided to go the cocoon route: the carapace is protecting the goo inside. centipede dont go through cocoon phases but shhh. made it dull to keep its unique color from the rest of the line that the canon one has.

There is big text in the bottom left corner in a gradient of green to red which says, "Queers for Palestine". The background is a dulled grayish green with a repeating pattern of simple watermelons and keys, with the outline of a river running down the center. In the upper left corner is a watermark that says "TheCraftyDragonC". End ID]

[Start ID: A Stylized digital drawing of the character Darkstalker from Wings of Fire trapped under a mountain. The piece is in a lineless style with very saturated colors. Darkstalker is curled up in a cavern inside the mountain, confined by the blue rocky walls around him. His figure is a dark silhouette with some bright colors popping out like his white mane with cyan and magenta streaks, icey blue diamond stars along his back and tail, and cyan talons. His eyes are open wide, with pink and blue sclera, a white iris, and black hourglass shaped pupils. His wings and tail wrap around him in his confined pose. in the center his talons are flexed out as a bracelet with 3 gemstones on his wrist shatters with radiant magenta light beaming outward. The mountain he is trapped under is a bright blue, with two jagged peaks reaching into the sky. Directly above the peaks is a blue comet flying through the sky amongst 3 full moon. Th rest of the night sky is dark with some speckled stars and a magenta and blue gradient at the horizon. End ID.]
A year later, I wanted to make a follow up piece to this Darkstalker drawing!
