(Pokémon SwSh) WIPs and sketchbook scraps (Patreon)

 Here's a few recent sketches of my latest hyperfixation!

I started a little sketchpage of Raihan to get his looks down in my style and you can actually read my incoherent thirsting for him on it (YES there are invisible elements that I didn't draw please excuse me)... also ended up making a tiny Raihan hairstyles catalog as I tried to translate his hair to my style. As a non black artist I'm at fault for not being nearly as skilled at drawing textured hair as I am at straight hair, so this was some pretty necessary - and fun!! - practice.

Leon and Piers probably come in 2nd and 3rd in my heart respectively so I tried jotting them down in my style as well. Still don't know what to do about Nz's hair but I love everyone's artistic interpretations. It's so full and luxious!!

Aand I didn't love Leon *that much* until I actually drew him. Now I'm obsessed with his princess Peach hair and stupid little beard.

On a related note, upon revisiting my raileon search challenge comic you'll notice I made a few edits - mainly to Raihan's hair as I first drew him with straight strands and that was bothering me. The original version can still be found on the progress post!
