Black and White Sisters

Here's a quick picture I whipped up of Jo and I as Pokemon.
I was mostly inspired by Pokepark 2 for this one (like the first game, Beyond the World is horrible yet oddly amusing at the same time). I always play as Snivy (not only because she's my favorite of the four, but also because the other Pokemon are unbearably slow) and Jo always plays as Tepig. Tepig is Jo's all time favorite Pokemon, and while Snivy isn't my top favorite Pokemon, it's probably my favorite starter next to Charmander. Jo has a collection of Tepig merchandise, and I collect Snivy stuff. We both have plush, multiple figurines, pennies, and shirts depicting our favorite Unova starters. In fact, the day I started working on this, Jo and I both just happened to be wearing our Tepig and Snivy shirts. I think Tepig and Snivy's stereotypical personality traits fit us rather well, too. Jo is sort of a happy go lucky kind of person, but she also has a fiery temper and it isn't a pretty sight when she's angry. I'm more of a reserved, serious person, and I sort of see things with a sarcastic viewpoint.
I didn't spend a lot of time on this drawing. The lineart is pretty sloppy, and the shading was hastily done. I'm really not happy with how the Tepig came out, but I think the Snivy is one of my best so far.
Abnormally light sketch... o_O
I don't have a comparison image for Tepig, but I have several for Snivy... I chose the most recent one, which I've noticed doesn't stay very true to Snivy's design.

This is where I'll post and comment about my newest artwork. Yola has caused all of the pictures to become squished, so please drag the image you want to view into the URL bar to see it in full size. Full size pictures are also available on my deviantART, Ahnyo.
