To tide you over while you wait to hear more about the newest Pokemon release, check out this awesome artwork by artist Tamtamdi. In a year, they were able to create all of the first generation Pokemon as “gijinka” and have already started on the second generation. The humanization makes for some pretty cool ideas of how you may want to dress up as your favorite Pokemon, should you be hungry for cosplay ideas for that next big convention.
Here’s some of our favorites.
What’s so great about these pictures is that even though Tamtamdi has given us a reference of who the Pokemon is in the bottom left, oftentimes the characters are drawn in such a way that you don’t even need it. Not only that, but the personality gives extra weight to each of the drawings.
Look how sassy this Vileplume is! Note how the attire is both simple and immediately identifiable due to the color themes and bonnet. I love that about these pieces. The next one is also pretty impressive.
This piece has every single one of the Unown letters and symbols, and still only took about five hours to finish according to the artist. Talk about dedication.
If you’re looking for some unique and fun ways to represent your favorite Pokemon at an upcoming con, be sure to check out Tamtamdi’s page to see each of the generations separate album.
