Wow, I thought I should hold off until the Cerulean was released to praise your excellent work on that beautiful cover. Fantastic job, as always.

I suppose the best advice I can give is to not get frustrated with the pen tool. Most people find it pretty hard to use at first and give up pretty quickly.
Also note that the pen tool works a little differently between Illustrator and Photoshop. But either way, with time and practice you'll find it to be pretty handy!
Thanks a bunch! Frankly, I think it's one of my best works so far. But hopefully they'll keep getting better
With that said, I've got a new item to add to the gallery:
Pokémon TCG Energy Symbol Pack
Just like the last one, I've included symbols for Illustrator and brushes for Photoshop. I also threw in the raw images for anyone who has trouble loading the files.

Could you possibly make a version of them for GIMP somehow?

OK. Be sure to google "How to convert Photoshop brushes to GIMP brushes" in case you dont know how to.

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 12.29.10]
...you could have just as easily googled "how to use photoshop brushes in gimp" instead of asking AadmM to do the dirty work too. I'm not going to spoil the fun so I'll just say this much: You dont need photoshop to convert an .abr to a .gbr
FYI latest versions of gimp should have some extent of .abr support so you could try putting those brushes in the same directory where your place your gimp brushes and see if it works as per normal

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 12.29.10]
True that. Someone on deviantART mentioned that my Smash Bros. brushes worked alright with more recent versions of GIMP. And as far as the TCG brushes go, I also included the raw .png images in the ZIP file for anyone who couldn't load the brush sets.
But I'll still see about getting GIMP, if only for testing purposes...

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 12.29.10]
Well I doubt there's much to test on gimp unless you are planning on compatibility of assets that you make... gimp is basically a poor man's photoshop ironically I have photoshop but use gimp as I'm lazy to install the latter.
If I had some magical power to combine software features, I'd probably take SAI's rasterisation+brush controls and clipping groups function, and then put it in gimp. That's ideal enough for me. I dislike having to open up SAI purely just for inking (I dont like its tools enough for me to want to do entire art pieces from start to finish in SAI)
EDIT:
There you go pokemaister899, like I mentioned gimp supports .abr. You can thank me later for saving you 5 minutes of doing it the hard way via the abr-gbr conversion.
damn the native resolution is huge. at 1.00 brush size, it slows my gimp to a crawl. Not to mention straining my GPU enough to spike the temperature by 3-4 degrees.

Yeah I just noticed that... sorry btw. Now that I see this I might get more PS brushes.

I for some reason have not commented on the genius that is AadmM. Seriously man, your work is dope, I love all of it. I also saw something by you on the cover of the Cerulean this month, that was sick, too. I don't know if you're still taking requests, but if you are, I certainly wouldn't mind a Regigigas typography piece
Really, nice work, I can't wait to see more!

Ah, yes- now a Regigigias typography would be pretty amazing. I second 6-D ;D

Thanks a bunch! Although "genius" is definitely an overstatement
As for that Regigigas design...sure thing! And while we're on the subject of those, I have a couple new ones to add:
Blastoise
Torterra
I noticed I've been doing a lot of the starters lately, so I figured I'd just go ahead and finish up the rest of them. Next up is either Charizard or Infernape.

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 01.06.11]
Oh wow, those look absolutely stunning, AadmM. The Blastoise typography looks amazing, from the font to the coloring. The Torterra typography was nothing short of epic, either. I like how that turned out, with the trees an' all ;D

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 01.06.11]
Torterra was spectacular; great designs on the text itself. Can't believe I haven't said anything until now. And I loved the SSBB pack as well, that was genius. Cannot wait for future work! Please, keep it up!

Psst You should do Daft Punk lol

For the Torterra Vector, I think it would have looked nicer if the text was Green. The contrast would have looked sharp especially with the brown outline around.

RE: path::AadmM.art//design [Updated 01.06.11]
Haha, working on that one gave me a new appreciation for the color blue, I think.
One of these days
True. For the type, I experimented with that, a mixture of green and brown, and of course the light brown I stuck with. In the end I tried to create a nice transition from the greens on the upper part to the browns on the lower.
Although looking at it again, there's not much green in it to begin with aside from the tree...hm.
Thanks
You mean, like the one I made for lilsparks? Sure.
