Yeah he disappointed me after his stance on unsolicited critiquing when it was very much a man bullying a woman just to put her in her place&even though I settled with him after he said he didn’t have the context or whatever I was still too ick’d by the situation, the context was irrelevant 🙄

The longest time Pinterest always used to advertised this dress to me (probably a dupe since the Etsy shop didn’t sell it anymore) even though I already had it?? It just didn’t fit anymore

…but now it does again! 🥹🥹

Hang onnnnn let past me cook she had better ideas what happened to me between then and now 😭😭 I think csp crashed when I made these so some things I lost. This is all basically it though!
More sketches to get a feel for drawing characters in the pokemon world but also keep them really outdoorsy and swim with their pokemon in the water! First concept sketches I think. I wanted to make the game take place in the past at first?

A young black pokemon trainer girl possibly to native to the island of the hypothetical game. A young black pokemon trainer boy possibly to native to the island of the hypothetical game, unfinished sketch because I always leave the boys for last Various sketches of the characters and friends dancing/partying together probably near the end of the game. They wear special traditional outfits of the country/region

I didn’t like how the boy came out I think and that is so true about how I always feel for the male option in the games so maybe it’s accurate 😂 Trying to find more sketches/concepts of it. Apparently this was back in 2021 and a bit of 2022??

Uhhh?? I forgot I made these two! I was trying to make my own head-canon characters for a Pokémon game set somewhere in the Caribbean! I know the idea also was for them to climb up trees and change into their swimsuits which is underneath their main clothes! I tried okay! 😭
