Here we are: the greatest picture of marker work I have EVER done. I almost didn't want to give the original up after I finished! This was a trade I agreed to with teknicolortiger months and months ago, in exchange for a picture of my own Pokemon team (which you can see HERE. Seriously go look at it, it's freaking marvelous).

But I've never attempted anything to this scale of detail with my markers before, and if there's anything I want to brag about, it's that freaking tree. I used about ten different colours of Copic on it alone to get the lighting effect. This was also the picture where using bounce lighting with traditional media finally... clicked, and now I want to do everything in marker.

I'm a bit mad that the scanner chewed up the mixed yellow/blue-green layers that I used for the lightest areas of grass. It looks way nicer in real life and almost watercolour-y... Eh, c'est la vie!

From left to right: Pandora the Scolipede, Tsukiyo the Noctowl, Tachi the Floatzel, Geeves the Herdier, Cassie herself, Luma the Luxray, and Zap the Galvantula.
