gijinka houndoom

Submission for yo.

Normally I wouldn't bother drawing something that's been drawn about 50 times already, but I couldn't refuse gijinka Houndoom. Houndoom used to be my favourite Pokemon, back when Crystal was breaking grounds with - gasp! - a playable female trainer. And then Ruby and Zangoose came along and bumped Houndoom down to second favourite. Oh, the competition~

I had to keep going back in the middle of colouring/shading to fix the lineart, because it was kind of unproportional. I was also originally going to keep to Houndoom's colour scheme, but then half-way through I established that orange-and-black made for a hideous outfit. (Some of these Pokemon colour schemes are rather questionable, if you ask me.)

Seriously though, if Pokemon were real, all I'd need is a Zangoose and a Houndoom and I'd be set... and maybe a flying-type Pokemon too, so I wouldn't have to walk all over the place or pay for public transportation. *cheapass*

[EDIT]: Tweaked the colours and lineart a bit, because it was annoying me. >;[
