This is how I drew Charmeleon using a pen, a fine pen.
Charmeleon is number 5 on the Pokedex
This is the youtube video that shows the timelapse process of how the drawing was created. Charmeleon took a bit longer to draw than Charmander, but still managed to complete it around 5 minutes
Process
The paper is size A7
As mentioned before on other posts. I start with the head of Charmeleon. I am used to start with drawing the head, as it creates a great positional start and allows me to continue drawing the other parts of Charmeleon
After the position of the head is complete, I can then work out the size of the body, the hands and legs. I am a bit more comfortable with the proportions on this drawing. The downside is that me lines werent precise. you can see that I had to redraw some parts and some lines are not even connected properly...
This is a pen drawing, so it is difficult to add in shadows with different tones, hence I have to express it with lines and the closer the lines the darker the shadow... I am still working on a way to express this...
I hesitated adding that shadow lines around the mouth, as it turned out badly... it looks like Charmeleon has a beard as opposed to a shadow... I will need to work on some way to add in the shadow a bit better... maybe it would have been better to just leave out the shadow or to fill in the parts completely...
Here is the youtube short of the video. This is speed up around 16-20x so that it fits in the short...
And that is it... Subscribe to the channel if you enjoy this. Thanks
