The journey begins

Well, many years ago (about 13) I accepted a challenge to draw all 150 pokémon. At the time there was only 150, no big deal right? Well I never finished, I don't think I even got halfway. Well I decided I should try to complete my challenge. Why? Because I like to draw and I like pokémon. I strive to finish what I start and I never finished this. Well, some things have changed in 13 years. They've added about 300 new pokémon. I have yet to decide if I will complete the entire pokémon list or just stick to the original 150.

So yesterday I started at #1 and completed through #7. The totals for yesterday are.

#1 Bulbasaur

#2 Ivysaur

#3 Venusaur

#4 Charmander

#5 Carmeleon

#6 Charizard

#7 Squirtle

My favorite to draw yesterday was Charizard, I like the tough lines.

The easiest yesterday was Bulbasaur, he's got a simple structure.

The quickest to draw yesterday was Charmander who has an even simpler design than Bulbasaur but was a little more challenging because of that. I do better on more complicated details.

The longest I think was Venusar because of the detail but I had fun drawing him.

They are all just pencil sketches right now and I have yet to decide if I will leave them that way or if I will ink then or even color them. I suppose I can decide that later. Let's just worry about getting through the 150 first.

Here's what I got done yesterday.
