I made these images back in June last year, but I was not satisfied with how some of these drawings came out. So a couple of months ago, I decided to redraw some of these pictures and rework the image overall. How did that work out?
You may have also noticed that I built a new background for these images. This change was a nod to Pokemon's unusual original release history. The short version is that in Japan, the first two Pokemon games were Red and Green, not Red and Blue like the rest of the world received. The Pokemon found in the international Blue version are the same ones found in Japan's Green. There was a separate Blue version in Japan as well, but I will talk about that when I record, and I will refer to the game I play as Green in recording. To reflect that (and to make the red and orange characters pop out), I decided to make a new green background for these pages. I did not want to make it a grass green or a chartreuse, though; I still wanted more of a teal color to reflect how you could call this game "Pokemon Blue" or "Pokemon Green" and probably be right.
Hmm... maybe it would have been less trouble to just play this on the Red version. Ha ha ha...
So, folks, I would like to hear some thoughts on this week's images and last week's. Which version did you like better? Old or new? Blue or green?
Pokemon is a tradmark of Nintendo, GAME FREAK, and the Pokemon Company. Though I drew these pictures, I claim no ownership over the characters contained in them.
