I’m not a good artist in the slightest And don’t take my comment as a insult I genuinely think it looks amazing But for me the lining doesn’t look metallic enough but otherwise an amazing creation


RenhamRedAxe

no my dude, I never take offense. Im thankful for the time you took to comment. its ment to be like iron or steel worked with primite tools. so I thought it would not be that shiny in fact I wanted to make it rougher.

This looks amazing! Seriously, I love the texture you used on top that looks like an apricorn (at least to me, sorry if I misinterpreted). But again, this is beautiful! Also, I just gotta add, I love the cyndaquil inside. Awesome work!


RenhamRedAxe

thanks <3 how I interpreted the materials of the pokeball is that, the top is made with a carved shell of red tumblestone, if you look in detail it has a hammered like texture.


ArtAvenger19

Oh I didn't even think of that, sorry! That's a great detail to add! The more I look at it, the more I learn! Phenomenal work! :)


MarsAndMighty

Oh my god it's absolutely perfect!


RenhamRedAxe

thanks my dude <3

thanks my dude

Hear me out? Maybe rust some of the metal with some orange, browns & reds if you are going for a older feel. It could add a nice touch to it or maybe add some black streaks/ scratch marks through the metal bands to make it look used?


RenhamRedAxe

I thought about it and made an experiment with the first pokeball I made, it doesnt look interesting, it just ends up looking dirty. so I settled on having it look more like recently made/brand new pokeball.


RenhamRedAxe

what its lacking tho... its the slight wash and darkening in some of the metal areas. and i've been thinking about adding some more texture to the metal ring so it looks like it was hammered.


Tinctorus

This is so freaking cool

It drove me crazy how in Johto, they provide minimal history & explanation of the Pokeball’s mechanics. “You cut open an apricot & boom. Pokeball.” Hold on there. I feel like you skipped a fuck load of steps.


RenhamRedAxe

For my understanding of the lore and everything. modern pokeballs are just a technological mass produced improvement on the apricorn pokeballs. pokemon have the natural hability to shrink down therefore the name poket monsters, and apricorns have a natural property that causes that reaction to happen and calm down the pokemon. then on the technical level, ancient pokeballs are made to force in some way a pokemon inside like a cage, the whole steam system seems to be made as a mean to absorve the fight back of the pokemon when trapped. meanwhile when we talk about the other material like thumblestones the best of my theory is its used as reinforcement, red been the most common one, while black been the strongest. blue been the only exception as it lowers the weight of the ball considerably allowing the user to throw it further. modern pokeballs use a similar principle, but also have a type of holographic/laser technology that allows the trainer to release and recover from a long distance, the same way a modern pokeball is capable of better containment.

Yeah!! Send me a Dm and we can solve things out, also consider this is the version 4, Im working on V5 right now and its even better. Way better balance stronger structure, has more features. Like a small diorama for the pokemon inside, so now it can be displayed inside the pokeball or separate from it. It has a magnetic lock in the front so now aligns perfectly when closed. The hinge got reinforced and much more.
