Este artista dibuja Pokémons como si existieran en la vida real

“Voy a comprar todas las entradas de la sala para disfrutar de la experiencia de visionado sin que nadie me moleste”, ese fue mi primer pensamiento después de ver el tráiler de Pokémon Detective Pikachu.

Me da igual la occidentalización del concepto Pokémon, tampoco me importa la transformada (o no) personalidad de Pikachu o la polémica alrededor de su renovada estética. Ahora mismo sólo quiero ver la película: ni siquiera me importa el aluvión previo de títulos Disney.

En esos pensamientos estaba mientras buscaba más información, más estímulos sobre la nueva película… cuando me encontré con la mejor cuenta de Instagram de toda la red social.

Joshue Dunlop, artista londinense, se adelantó (o quizás inspiró por aquello del live action) a Warner Bross. Y lo hizo proyectando su trabajo –Pokémon Zoology– en Instagram.

El trabajo se puede definir así: Joshue Dunlop coge a un Pokémon cualquiera; lo trabaja con Zbrush, Keyshot y Photoshop; le da apariencia real; lo publica en Instagram; y decenas de miles de personas reaccionan a la publicación.

Creando figuras tétricas, sacando alguna sonrisilla y haciéndonos fliparlo, Dunlop ha conseguido que la espera para Pokémon Detective Pikachu sea algo más llevadera.

When evolving from Oddish, Gloom's leaves wilt and make way for large pods that will eventually form into Vileplume's large flower petals. These unusual plants are generally solitary creatures and live deep in thick forested or jungle areas. Their powerful scent can be smelt up to a mile away. Hope you like this guys! Thank you for your patience!

As the sandstorm rolled in, I saw it emerge from the dust… a Marowak! It was scavenging the bones of a dead animal to build its nest after the male had left. Females lay enormous eggs, making up near a 3rd of their body weight when pregnant. They only lay one egg in their lifetime and sadly, due to its size, they die whilst birthing their egg. Giving Cubone the tragic title of Orphan Pokemon. Hope you like it guys and gals! This one proved to be more of a pain than I panned!

So a few people had some constructive feedback and I had to agree with them. I've done a re-render and I have to admit this one looks a lot more like a live fish rather than a model, and I'm really happy with how this one turned out! Obviously, I'm not going to make a habit of redoing art but if I see peoples points on things I try again in order to improve 🙂 Please don't request other redone, I'm happy with those and it's quite rude when people ask that 😉 Anyway, I'm happy with the turnout! Keep your eyes peeled for the next vote! And If you want to help the project thrive and grow, check out my Patreon and Etsy store: Link in my Bio! 😉 #Pokemon #PokemonZoology #Magikarp #JoshuaDunlop

Some of you have asked to see a front on version of Golbat. This is a raw render, so don't judge it too harshly! #Golbat #PokemonZoology #PokemonGO

These beautiful but dangerous flowers are one of the largest flowers in the world. Vileplume can produce incredibly toxic spores, as a defense mechanism, they release these spores that can close up their attacker's windpipe in seconds, suffocating them. The brighter the petals, the more toxic the spores. If you want to support the project or grab some merch, check out my Patreon and Etsy store! Link in my bio 😉 #Vileplume #PokemonZoology #Pokemon
