"Just a happy Vaporeon on a happy beach."

I tried drawing Vaporeon the previous day using pens (so no eraser) and it looked AWFUL, like absolutely hideous, so I wanted to try to redeem myself. I'm not that great at drawing quadrupeds (or much of anything but little chibi cat dudes lol), I need to practice a lot more, but at least I feel like this was a large step over the earlier abomination!

I kind of regret my choice of highlighting on its eyes; I should have flipped the bottom highlight with the top, because from the thumbnail or at a glance, it looks like it's giving weird sexy eyes, and uhhhhh... no we are staying away from the Vaporeon memes here. 🤣 That's not what I was going for!
