Hey all!

As we all know, Voodoll already has some cool artwork provided by our Administrator, DougJustDoug!



I would like to have some proper sized updated artwork for Voodoll! DJD himself may want to come in and post some art too! I hope some artists have been fervently working away since this project started, because now is your time to shine! Remember, try and stay as close to the original design as possible, this is more about making a "full" art design, than updating/changing it so much. Check out the other updated artworks in the Pre-EnCAPlopedia or ideas on how it has been done in the past!

---
Here's all the rules for CAP art submissions. If you're a long-time CAP art submitter, you know what to do here. If you are new to the game, however, I recommend you give this a good read through; it's important information.

Main Design

The main design is intended to follow the same general posing and layout as the "Official Art" for existing in-game Pokemon. The main design is the definitive design for a given Pokemon and should be suitable for display in the CAP PokeDex section of the CAP Website and any other CAP propaganda where a picture of the Pokemon is needed. The comparison to 'Official Pokemon Art' is only applicable to the basic content of the main design; it does not imply any standards or guidelines regarding artistic style or rendering technique.

The following rules of content must be followed for the main design:

  • It must consist of a single Pokemon on a plain white background with no parts of the Pokemon cut off by the canvas.
  • No props, action effects, move effects, or additional objects can be rendered on or around the Pokemon. If a prop is part of the Pokemon's basic design (ie. Conkeldurr's pillars), then it is acceptable.
  • Any 2D digital or scanned traditional drawing may be used. It must be in full color. 3D media and photos are not allowed.
  • It must have a distinguishable outline on the entire subject in contrast to the background. No part of the design can be blurred into the background or blended into the background in any way.
  • The maximum allowed size is 640x640 and the minimum allowed size of 320x320.
  • It must be in a compressed digital format such as .png or .jpg.

The rules for main designs will be strictly enforced. Do not make comparisons to in-game Pokemon designs or to past CAP designs to determine if your design is in compliance with these rules. Some in-game Pokemon designs and past CAP designs do not conform with the current CAP art submission rules, and emulating those designs is not an acceptable excuse for breaking the strict interpretation of the current rules.

Supporting Material

While the rules for the main design are somewhat rigid, there are almost no rules when it comes to supporting material. Action scenes, movement studies, interaction with other Pokemon, animations, sculptures, and cartoon strips are all allowed. Virtually any supporting material you can think of is allowed, though keep it tasteful. Non-art supporting material is also allowed. This includes detailed descriptions of the art, background data, stories, etc. All supporting art and information must be related to the main design in some way. This rule is intended to prevent artists from posting unrelated art in an effort to gain more attention or promote other designs or artworks.

In Voodoll's case, you are more than welcome to draw supporting material. However, understand that it is probably better to focus on your main submission, as that will be the one that truly matters in the long run, since that will be the only image hosted on site. You don't need to convince people of your design this time around, but rather, your artistic talent.

Final Submission Post

All artists must make a final submission post in order to be considered for the art poll. The post must be titled "Final Submission". The post should have the Main Design at the top, and supporting material (if applicable) below it. All supporting art must be included as links or as linked thumbnails no larger than 150x150. Do not include full images of supporting art in the final submission. Only make one (1) final submission post. Artists are welcome to work on multiple designs and get feedback from the community, but only one design can be submitted for final consideration. If you wish to alter any aspect of your final submission, then edit your post. Do not make a new one, even if you delete your original post. Any deleting and reposting will be treated as bumping and is subject to moderation.

General Posting Rules


  • Artists can post any work-in-progress (WIP) artwork in order to solicit feedback or to help develop ideas. WIP artwork does not need to conform to the standards of a Main Design. It can be in any medium or stage of completion, but it must be related to an original art by the poster.
  • Do not spam the thread with excessive amounts of artwork over a short period of time. Apparently, some artists think they will improve their chances in the poll if they overload the submission thread with their artwork. Doing so will result in your posts being moderated.
  • Do not post inconsequential "updates" to previously posted art. Only if you have made a significant change and have not posted art recently can you post an update in the thread.
  • No post can contain more than 800x800 pixels of included art, and no single picture can be larger than 640x640. Past those limits, artists should post links to the additional art or use linking thumbnails. Each thumbnail can be no larger than 150x150. Any number of thumbnails can be included in a post, even if it passes the limit. All art must be in a compressed digital format.
  • No bumping or begging, especially for feedback. If your art is any good, people will comment on it. If your art gets no feedback, then your art is not very good. Consider the silence to be your feedback.
  • Do not declare any artwork as "the winner" or say that anything "is clearly going to win". It's fine to post praise or support for an artwork, but don't make a statement indicating the results of a poll that has not been conducted. Such posts are insulting to all the other competing artists.
  • Do not ask when this thread will close. CAP threads do not follow a set timetable. If you want to know the overall sequence of events in a CAP then go to the CAP website and read the process guide.
  • Do not post questions asking for help in making art. This isn't a tutorial thread.

Art Polls

All art polls will contain the main design and, if applicable, a link below it titled "Supporting Material". This will link to the artists final submission post. If the final submission contains no significant supporting material, then no link will be included in the poll below the main design. Art submissions for the art poll will be selected in a manner to be determined by the topic leader. There is no process for overturning the topic leader's decision. If you are not comfortable with this stipulation, then do not make an art submission. Do not post any complaints here or in later threads.

We also have our new abilities, which are the same as Voodoom's!

Final Submission



Here's a flat color with colored outline drawing done on MS Paint, as expected of my style. Voodoll doesn't have to be sad all the time, but he may want a hug from anyone who has contributed to CAPtonia.

EDIT: Finalized my submission.

WIP


Very preliminary sketches to get a good feel for the shape and pose I'm wanting Voodoll to have, plus a colored version to see if the form is going well with the colors. I wanted to give him the loner-y feel he gives off with his raggedy feel and sad face, so not only is he sitting down, but also all slinked into himself and in general in a pretty moody frame. I also inspired a bit on what poses you can get from something like a stuffed animal, like a teddy bear or summut.

I'll probably continue with this pose for the lining, but if there's anything you'd like to tell me about how its looking feel free to do so!

might end up being my final submission, since I'm busy

slight modifications:
  • head is larger
  • pins have a thicker needle
 
WIP

Still an early WIP I just want to get the pose/general design done before I polish this further.

Edits from the original:​
  • Added a Patch to its right arm.
  • Removed some stitches but I might add them back later.

I found all my old working images from my original Voodoll design. Here's the original sketch I used:

I have the original Photoshop layered file for the design too, and I plan to regenerate the design in full color at full size for submission here very soon!

Final Submission


This is just a larger version of the Voodoll art I included in my original supporting art for Voodoom years ago. The colors for Voodoll are slightly brighter shades of Voodoom's colors, under the premise that Voodoll is newer and doesn't have as much wear and tear as Voodoom. If you look at the two designs side by side in the OP, you can see the slight difference. It's a little thing, but an interesting tidbit for those of you into little details.

I love all the interpretations of Voodoll by the artists in this thread. Great work by all and I'll be elated with whatever we choose!
