Squirkishi

Squirkishi by CRwixey

Description

Sixth in a five-strong chain of Squirrisu evolutions (please see www.fanart-central.net/pic-718900.html).
The name is derived from the words Squirrel and kishi, Japanese for knight.

Drawn with a 0.5 mechanical pencil, inked with a 0.3 drawing pen, coloured with felt tips. Background added using Microsoft Photo Editor and Microsoft Paint. Comments welcome! :)

This slightly mad squirrel thinks he’s a knight. So much so, he’s even made himself a sword, shield, and a suit of armour out of origami paper. He’s not so much a knight in shining armour as a knight in wafer-thin papery armour, but that doesn’t stop him from believing it’s “stronger than tensile steel”.
Far from being chivalrous and noble, Squirkishi fight dirty and use every trick they can think of to get the upper hand in a battle. One of their favourite tricks is to hide in bushes or tall tress and mug passers-by.
Just don’t expect them to come galloping along on a white horse to rescue you if you ever get stuck in a castle tower...

Very good work.

I'm sort of reminded of the movie 300 when I see this.

It's very nice work.

CRwixey on January 29, 2009, 4:23:05 AM

Thanks! :)

I've never seen 300... I'm curious now...

TheHexGirls on January 28, 2009, 1:08:24 AM

pfft. how 'cute' XD and silly too.

TheHexGirls on January 29, 2009, 4:30:41 AM

key word 'consider' I think the entire bunch would be kinda easy for me since they use origami paper in battle, and I train mostly fire types.

CRwixey on January 29, 2009, 4:48:42 AM

Oh, and Squirkishi, since he's part Steel type. Poor thing wouldn't last five minutes...

CRwixey on January 29, 2009, 4:47:14 AM

Ah, well, they're all nuts. Although elementally speaking, only Squinsane should be bad against fire moves as he's part grass type. Really though, they should all be dead easy to knock out. Their weapons are only made out of paper, after all...

CRwixey on January 29, 2009, 4:27:12 AM

Yeah, I know. ^^ The Squirrisu bunch were never really meant to be taken seriously (although they like to consider themseolves very serious and powerful battlers).

Thanks! :)

*points up* I commented on my own comment. XD;;;;

Gadoink on January 28, 2009, 8:49:32 AM

you have way too much fun making these. now that you are done with eeveelutions, you thought 'now what? oh i know more evos of Squirrisu!'

did it go something like that?

CRwixey on January 29, 2009, 4:25:31 AM

Heh, you said that after I submitted Gloreon, I remember...

I've still not a few more Eeveelution ideas, which I stopped drawing when I started the Zodiac series. I'd been intending to draw Squireal for a long time, but couldn't get it right for ages.

Thanks for the comment. :)
