have you been asked to review the Tapu pokemon yet?

As a whole, I really like the Tapus. It's neat to have one guardian per Alolan island, and the designs themselves are well thought out. I really like how each one has a set of white triangular markings with a darker border, which allows each one of them to be very distinctive with unique designs and palettes while also making sure all three look like they belong together in a group. This is also enhanced by them carrying tiki-inspired masks, with each one being based on a different animal that also influences the creature itself to some degree. Good stuff.

Thematically, the Tapus are also based off of the four main Hawaiian gods (Koko, Lele, Bulu, and Fini seem to be based off of Kūkaʻilimoku, Kāne, Lono, and Kanaloa respectively). I'm obviously not Hawaiian so I don't feel qualified to judge these guys on accuracy, though it seems like Tapu Koko is the most on-point with the feathered look while Tapu Fini is the least, having little to do with the deity it's based off of aside from a vague connection to the ocean.

Regardless, all of these designs are distinct and do a good job standing out from other legendaries, as well as tying back into their region. There was clearly a lot of thought that went into them in terms of both functionality and visual aesthetics.

Tapu Koko is my personal favorite of the bunch. Vaguely based off a rooster (side note: I'm amazed we don't have a rooster 'mon yet. I guess Blaziken counts but it's only a rooster in the vaguest sense of the word), it sports feathers, a beak-like structure on its face, and a mask that it forms a beak with using its pincer-like hands. Really neat! I also like the mohawk becomes the rooster's comb when the mask is closed.

The orange and yellow palette is also nice, as it's very high-contrast and pops well against the black body. My only nitpicks would be that the two pairs of chest markings feel a bit too busy, as do the lines in the yellow part of the eye (though granted, they all have those). Otherwise, this is a very neat design.

I like Tapu Lele because it looks all cute and pretty and then it turns out it's an incredibly cruel nature deity that does not care about the suffering it causes. It and Beautifly should be friends.

Anyway, Tapu Lele is meant to resemble a butterfly head, with the hair curls becoming antennae and a tentacle emerging from the bottom that resembles a proboscis, along with two wing-like structures on the back. I don't think it reads quite as clearly as some of the others, and I do wish the body took after its animal more (the creature itself having no insect-like traits, compared to the other Tapus where you can see the animal influence outside of the masks), but it's still neat.

Tapu Bulu probably resembles its animal the most in terms of body shape, having a bull's signature nose piercing and hooves, as well as horns. Most interesting is the long tail, which not only matches the hooves but becomes the bull's nose ring when the mask closes.

The colors are nice and high-contrast, but I do wish it had been green instead of red. Koko is yellow and orange, Lele is pink and red, and Fini is purple and blue. Having Bulu be red and gold feels too similar to Lele, even if it fits the angry bull idea. It also would've made sense from a typing perspective, as Tapu Bulu is the grass-type of the group (even the horns kind of look like pencils/wood).

Otherwise I don't have any real complaints, outside of the face markings feeling a bit busy, as you have the nose, ring, and three different eye markings. I feel like they could've easily dropped the white eye markings and not lost anything.

And finally, Tapu Fini is probably my least favorite of the group, though it's still a good design. I like the body shape (kind of siren-like, though I don't know if that was intentional) with fin-shaped accents in the hair, on the hands, and on the body.

When it closes its mask it resembles a swordfish of sorts, with the hair strands becoming the side fins and the hair fin slotting into the mask's purple ridge to form a dorsal fin. Something about the fish itself feels a little off though; maybe it's just that it lacks a tail fin, or maybe it just looks a bit too plain compared to the others because it's meant to be viewed more from the side. Still a pretty solid design all around though.

Anyway, overall, I think these guys are great. They're cohesive but distinct, have unique visuals and themes that set them apart from other legendaries, and designs that work from both a visual and mechanical standpoint. Good stuff.

I never did post this Tapu Fini because technically it's unfinished (shell does not have pattern) but it still looks pretty cool and is otherwise done

Tapu Fini -- 5ban Graphics

[poniquest]

Poni Breaker Coast 6:35 pm high tide_

You aren't sure what drew you here. But you aren't complaining -- it's a beautiful evening. The sea has been tinted purple by the pink and orange sky above, and nary a sound can be heard aside from a faint breeze. It is a blessedly quiet moment, and the waves are surprisingly calm.

...

Doesn't it seem a little too quiet? They don't call this the Poni Breaker Coast for no reason.

Maybe you sh-- huh?!

A thick mist has covered the area!

You hear a voice, but you cannot see anything ...

As quickly as the mist appears, it parts ...

When did it start storming? Who is that?!

Lunala: I CAN'T DO IT!

Solgaleo, laughing: I CAN'T EITHER!

Lunala: I CAN'T FUCKING DO IT ANYMORE.

Tapu Koko: WELL I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, YOU CAN EITHER GIVE UP NOW, OR YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT. BECAUSE WE CERTAINLY CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU, AND WE KNOW YOU CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT US.

Lunala:

Lunala: I appreciate it,

Lunala: BUT LOOK WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH-

Tapu Fini: Lunala-

Lunala: YOU GOTTA DRAW THE LINE SOMEWHERE!

Tapu Bulu: Lunala we gotta-

Lunala: YOU GOTTA DRAW A FUCKING LINE IN THE SAND. YOU GOTTA MAKE A STATEMENT.

Lunala: YOU GOTTA LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND SAY 'What am I willing to put up with today?'

Lunala, motioning to Necrozma: NOT FUCKING THIS.

Good to see your blog is popping off today! I appreciate you encouraging people to draw, but have you got any tips for us first-timers who struggle with anything beyond stick men?

Also. GanglexRagatha? You're onto something there chief. And I don't think the world is ready for something that incredible.

Tips.. tips.. I’m not good with advice other than telling you to suck it up if you think your art sucks because it gets better the more you do it

But.. I could say, don’t.. don’t be afraid to use other art as reference or even consider tracing, ofcourse only use it for practice and never post it saying you did it by yourself but it helps. It also helps to draw it off to the side after tracing it the first time and keep doing it over again. Study what makes a style a style, how do people draw noses or how do certain artists draw hands bc Leme tell you everyone draws them differently I promise.

I can’t say I’ll be much help because I was self taught, I learned though repetition and doing things over and over or just observing the way other people draw and try to replicate it for myself… I’ll admit this some of my style is bouncing off of sm-baby’s. (My style drifts from my favorite artists and I tend to try and replicate.. that’s also the fun of learning, trying to copy styles. I’ve done so many and I’ve gotten better at making them look somewhat similar, for instance, tis a few stained glass murals I made a while ago for a Pokémon rp me and my friend decided to make lore for (I love the tapus so much)

And YES, see I’m telling you guys it’s such a good ship, they would be so sweet to eachother and they would actually talk thinks out
