Blind Pokeball Fan Art

Description

First time here on DA.

I created something simple on Illustrator just for fun.

I used Illustrator mainly because it's tools are better when making digital art than Photoshop.

There are a few flaws with Illustrator however; there is no history or history logs, so I had to manually create a log on notepad X_x. The second flaw is that gradients work better on Photoshop mainly because I have more control over them than in Illustrator.

Oh well I'm not really complaining, Illustrator is a wonderful program, though I'm not used to it yet, it does seem easy to use considering Photoshop/Illustrator are related.

I welcome any and all critiques!

About the image itself, I went with seer memory itself!
Basically I did a blind drawing on my head and created it as I went on. I wanted to make it simple, kinda like a logo of sorts.

Originally I wanted to make it kinda like a button pin design [like the ones people wear on their shirts] as well as using simple non-gradient colors, but the edges (which was a white border at first) didn't match well with the white bottom of the pokeball. Now that I think about it maybe if I had used very light gray instead of white it might have worked...

P.S. If anyone can show me the ropes on DA I'd appreciate it!

Edit: I don't know how to include extra files or if it's possible so if anyone wants to know how it was done I will PM you a short mini-tutorial.

Talk about being late to the party on this one, I was just wondering if I could use this in some videos? (as the icon for party members in a nuzlocke I'm doing)
