Xerneas

My artwork for Xerneas. I'm not completely pleased with how it turned out, but that's to be expected since I haven't had much time to practice drawing it with all of my other projects taking priority. A second version is definitely something I'm going to make in the future.

Anyway, when coloring this guy in Sugimori's new stylistic touches for the sixth Generation became immediately apparent. The color choices, some of the ways parts were colored... Xerneas's Sugimori art introduced many, many new ways Sugimori colors his work. If I didn't know any better I'd say it wasn't colored in by Sugimori. It'll be interesting to see how these new touches are applied to future pieces of sixth Generation art.

If you wish to use this artwork, all I ask is that you credit me for it - no permission is needed. Thanks.

Enjoy.
