Bing Rewards is doing a promotion right now where you can spend 100 points and get a 6"x4" bamboo print of an image. I'm not very artsy, but I figured I would take advantage of the opportunity and make some nice wall art out of some of Ken Sugimori's original Pokemon illustrations. My inspiration was the original Pokemon games for the Gameboy, so the tiles are in the order the games were released (Green, Red, Blue, Yellow). That also happens to match up with the numbers of the starters in the original Pokedex. The images are included below:

I would like your guys feedback on the background of the images. I want with a watercolor background so that it kind of went with the watercolor style of the original illustrations. Does it seem too bland? Can any art wizards here improve on it?

Further, an unrelated question, but what the hell is that orange lump on Charmander's back?

    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma

  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
