Volpollie, the snowboarding arctic fox. It's name is a combinatin of volpe, Italian for "Fox", and ollie, a basic snowboarding move where the tail of the board is used as a spring to propel the boarder into the air.

Drawn with a 0.3 mechanical pencil, inked with a 0.3 drawing pen, coloured with felt tips. Background is an ink wash that has been darkened using Microsoft Photo Editor, and then skewed at an angle in Microsoft Paint. I found this pic on Google Images, and it was a useful reference: http://www.snowboarding-essentials.com/info/img/snowboarding/ap/1003729.jpg.

Comments are always welcome. :)

Volpollie use their oversized tails as snowboards – the underside is flat and smooth and allows for a good acceleration whilst travelling down icy slopes. It’s also good insulation, as Volpollie inhabit the coldest areas of the Pokemon world. Their garment-like fur makes them an unusual sight, but as you watch them careering down mountainsides like out of control toboggans, emitting their distinctive “waaaaa-hoooooooooooooooo” howls, you can’t help but think they really know how to have a good time.

rolla_roachThat is so cool! Your anthro Pokemon rock! I love how you draw hands! You make it looks so easy XD Very creative; ingenius design. I love the flow of the pose; it's so fluid and lifelike. Kudos to you for your creative Pokemon designs! They're so amazing!

CRwixeyAw, thanks! ^_^

I can only get hands and poses right if I don't think about how I want them to look while I'm drawing them. That probably sounds weird, but if I make a conscious effort to make them look a certain way, they go wrong every time. Probably a "trying too hard" thing...

rolla_roachDoesn't sound wierd at all! In fact, that's what my mom tells me XD She just says not to think about it, because if I do, I try too hard and the hands come out all wonky. If I draw it out without a second thought; low and behold, they look like hands that belong on a person rather then a T-Rex. I need to try that more...gosh I love this Pokemon... *stares*

CRwixeyI'm so glad you like it (him? her?).

I have the same problem with hands if I try too hard, I either get the fingers right but the hand's far too small or I get the size right but the fingers look deformed... is your mum artisically skilled too?
