Ok as an estimate i think this peice was 100 hours total on work.

Lame arse commenters
Alright i am going to bark at those of you who just deliver the lame ass comment. And you should'nt be pissed that i'm being 'mean' and should'nt whine on the fact you have 'no time' if you have no time don't come on here then.

Fave and runs
The act i spent twice as long on this peice then any other of my big things i'm so gonna chase use up :3 And still you better not think i'm being evil because i'm here to get comments/critisism/get noticed. All the things artsy people want..and what's the point if someone puts it in their favourites and most likely never even looks in their folder.
if you say 'i'll do it later' NO DO IT NOW WHILE YOUR ON DA
seriosly the last person who said they'll comment later..i'm still waiting and oh how long has it been..hmm about 3 months now. Yes i am very picky when it comes to this because it's the only thing i'm really serious about.


Ok now rant parts over heres why i did this.

1. Well mudkip is my favourite pokemon..have been since i saw it and raised on on sapphire, so please don't assume i just like it because it's 'cool' and for this you can probly tell i more then like mudkips i love them ^^ I can sit drawring them for 90 arsing hours i think that's more then like..but not so much that it goes into the creepy 'i wish mudkips were real, i wanna be one' kinda way.

2. You know that meme well..now that kids are using the word hate so much i have to find stronger words so i despise/loathe that meme ¬¬ i took out from my stamp collection ones that say that stupid phrase (ecept the one with a mudkip axolotl..because axolotl's are my second favourie animal to lemurs..that's why i based pudolo on one)

Heres why i despise this meme
Probly half the people who say this don't know what the hell it means, i've read it..and from what i see it means like them as in want to have sex with them. because in the meme the mudkip plushie gets humped by some retard. So if someone askes 'i herd you leik mudkipz'..no..no and that's not how you spell 'leik' and 'herd' and who the hell tells someone 'hey that person likes mudkips did'nt you hear?'
And heres somthing i realised while searching mudkip on here..half the stuff is'nt to do with just mudkips..it has that phrase in it..or is to do with that april fools joke which i seriously wish did'nt happen T-T it's made everyone think of that phrase more now while it was starting to be forgoten..or at least not said as much.
Why can't people just draw a mudkip because they liek to draw them and not be influenced by somthing from 4chan.
Plus i don't like that face mudkips so popular, i prefer to favourite things no one else knows of or likes..such as lemurs and axolotl's. Why can't the spot light be on pikachu again..i don't like pikachu so go whore him instead or some other pokemon ): make their reputation an aura of a meme some kid wrote.

At least marshtomp's not being whored..that's my second favourite now, and no one really draws them on here as much :3

So please DON'T mention that pharse in a comment here all it'll tell me is that your one of those who are ruining mudkip pokemonness..asking me if i like mudkips in that way..and well did'nt read the thing above. so i will gladly rant at you about the phrase :3


Nooww~

Heres how i tried to work it our time wise.

58 mudkips, (not inclusing rosie) each taking on average 1 hour and 30 mins (adults took 1.30-2 hours babies took 1-1.30 houres)
= 87 houres
rosie took 4 hours (vector style takes ages)
background took around 9 houres so in total it took about 100 hours.

Most the things in the background i found incredibly hard to draw such as: the river, the effect of somthing splashing out the river, sticks and puddles.

If you are a short commenter AT LEAST say which is your favourite posed one..mines the crouching baby next to the blushing muddy

and heres the thing on why their different colours (i know i keep having more X3)

ok in school i do biology and in that were learning about genetics and DNA.how it's replicated, transfered, inherited etc.
like all animals they have variation. because of evolution of things i decided mudkips can have variation to :3 but i only did it with colours since..i liek the shape of mudkips. so i make the skin colour from green, to turquoise, through cyans to a more royal blue. bellies i went from turquoise to NOT a purple..it's actually a very light royal blue :3 and cheeks from redish orange to yellowish orange. plus cheeksizes differ on some, and feet 9but that's because after doing the first 20 muds, i looked the anime and refs more closly and realised their feet are quite smoothe).


OH and the mikdip that looks liek it's doing down a water fall..it's supose to be what it looks liek underground (did'nt knwo how else to show a clear iamge of an underwater mudkip)
