Artist's commentary
Original Request
Hiyoyo-san,
Thank you for the appeal. You have a wonderful artstyle.
I think I'm going to request two characters together: Rhea, my OC, and Fran, my friend's OC.
Rhea is a stoic girl from Alola who lived in Hisui. She rarely smiles, and even when she's angry, her face doesn't change that much. Her hair is a wavier and messier version of Akari's from Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and her eyes are gray.
Fran is Rhea's rival, a girl from Kanto who leads an "evil organization" called Team Transcendence. Despite calling herself a villain, she hardly does anything that's actually evil. She even wants Rhea to win their final battle, thinking it would be a really cool scene. She has purple eyes, and her hairstyle is based on Rice Shower from Uma Musume—without the horse ears.
Instead of their usual outfits, I'd like them wearing Japanese festival yukata, like the "seasonal theme" you suggested. Fran is wearing a fancy yukata and has a Zoroark mask on the side of her head. Rhea is wearing a simpler yukata with a Hisuian Zoroark mask on the side of her head. Fran is posing and smugly showing off her outfit, while Rhea is staring at Fran, unimpressed.
Client Response
It looks like you drew Fran the way I wanted you to draw Rhea and vice versa 😅. But no worries, they still look great! Thank you!
