Did a small valentine for my mom a few days ago. Why not show it.
Aaaand Happy Birthday to my mom too. Both my parents have November birthdays so it's time for complementing presents. My mom is really pretty and has all her shit together ^^
I was going to make my mom a card and buy her some flowers, but I bought her a card and made her some flowers.
Mamuuuu - Digital
This is the Valentine I made my mom. It says 'I love you Mom', except the conjugation of Mom is wrong; when I was just a child, I wrote my mom a card and I didn't know how to conjugate properly then so I wrote Mamu instead of Mamy. So now it's our inside joke. And of course, I had to make this pun.
I tried to make it really cheesy and I think I succeeded ^^
I've already posted these up on my DA but I wanted to post them here too because I'm really proud of them. (also I should post something whilst I'm still working on new art) I always make birthday presents for my parents in pairs, even though they're divorced, because both their birthdays are in November. It's a little stressful to make two unique presents in the same month(usually I paint), and I was also working on some Christmas presents at the same time, so I decided to make them cards in Illustrator, which I'm pretty good at, if I do say so myself. They looked a bit different in the final print because I had to shift the shapes in the background to make the characters easier to distinguish. I also went for a more cutesy, simple style because that's what looks best in Illustrator, to me.
My parents aren't familiar with Pokemon so they just thought they were cute; Pokemon are also easy to draw and I like playing around with how they look. And of course, everybody loves the 'mons. :D
I took breeding rules into account here so my mom and I are both Lucario and I wanted my dad to be a water type but still be in the same breeding group. Luckily, one of my favourite Pokemon fit!
