Description

Man, this took a long time! This time, I tried something different than my sketch-outline-color-shade approach. I made a sketch, but skipped the outline. I went straight to coloring and shading at the same time. I stuck to the basic shape and I like the result but . . . I think I'll keep doing outlines from now on. I'm bored of plain black outlines, so I'll try outlines of different colors and textures to match the picture. I'm excited for my next one: a feathery yellow Moltres! pokemon gif moltres 

Anyway, for the contest we had to redesign our least favorite Pokemon. Of course, I love all Pokemon, so I narrowed it down to Muk #089 Muk  and Lombre #271 Lombre . Muk would be hard to stick to the basic shape. Reasons why I chose Lombre:
1. They're the Jolly Pokemon.
I like Lotad #270 Lotad  and Ludicolo #272 Ludicolo  because they seem happy in most pictures. Lombre just looks grumpy.
2. They look like they're wearing pants . . .
Well, they do.
3. The beak looks kind of weird.
Self-explanatory.
4. The colors are pale.
I like blue and green, but shouldn't a happy Pokemon have brighter colors? Lotad and Ludicolo do.

Parts I changed:
1. BRIGHTER COLORS! I thought yellow, blue, green, pink, and orange would do. (Does his eyes look orange enough?)
2. PATTERNS. I still liked the idea of two main colors, but I rounded off his "pant-line" and pointed the patch on his head.
3. CUTER/HAPPIER. The original eyes looked bland, so I added a cuteness factor and a happy smile. I even gave him a little flower! Flowerpot :flowerrain: +plz-acc 
4. LITTLE BUTTON NOSE. To fix the problem of the beak, I gave him a cute pink nose.

That's about it! I hope you like it. For those who like Lombre, do you think I stuck to the main design? If you don't like it, I'm sorry. I assure you, I do like all Pokemon.

P. S. Does the water in the pond look enough like water?

I think the beak was part of the original Kappa-inspired design, but the nose is very cute too. Also, I think you're the first person to draw a Pokemon in its natural habitat so that's cool. Thank you so much for entering :D
