Ladies and gents, as a side note, I am open for Gijinka and regular commissions.
Espeon, the Sun Pokémon.

Esa is like the gentle mother of the Eeveelus. Everybody knows she's a sweetheart; a pacifist, she doesn't like to fight, but she will if she's called out. She's not as shy as Flareon and Umbreon, but she has her moments. She's the second oldest, next to Umbreon, and they're constantly seen together, and are very close. They're constant fodder for Vaporeon and Glaceon's gossip moments. (But you can never get a straight answer out of those two. Umbreon blushing when she whispers in his ear is the only clue to anything that happens behind the scenes.)

Generally very relaxed (see her incense bottle?), she rarely ever gets angry. Even if she does, it's just sternness. Vaporeon wuuuuuuuuvvvs her, and the clothes that she's wearing was probably Vapor's idea. Leafeon and Eevee constantly compete for her attention, Flareon goes to her for advice (because Flare gets these serious bouts of insecurity...), and Glaceon likes to have intelligent conversation with her. Jolteon is on tip-top best behaviour around her, strangely enough.

Fun fact! Espeon is also very ticklish, so don't touch her exposed midriff or she'll psybeam you.
Well, she'll apologize, but... get yourself to that pokecenter. XD

Espeon is my unabashed favourite 'lution so I spent a good deal of time on her. Look at those damn finger and toe nails.

Espeon always struck me as being obscenely exotic. So here she is as a belly dancer. All her colours semed to mesh together in a nice way :) I drew her second, after Eevee, but my friends and watchers voted her fifth to colour XD. I also threw in the incense to add to the exoticness.

I love her sleeve. :D Her headband was fun too.

Thanks to ~TheAngelic for help with deciding what colour her dress was. After fourteen trial and errors, we found the right shades. The background was a happy accident. Long story short: brush tool, got upset, too much gaussian blur, suddenly happy again.

Each eeveelu gets more and more saturated... ?_?


Thanks for viewing :)

I don't normally write critiques but this one deserves all the stars one can get! I love the color, the form, and the design. Your other pieces are very lovely, but this is my favorite by far. The gentleness of the girl's face is so beautiful.

I love the green sleeve as well, it helps bring the eyes to the center of the picture. I like the way you drew the tuffs under the ears of both the humaniod and poke form. It makes you want to tickle them, good thing I read that warning about the psy beam retaliation.
