What's the HahBah joke? I don't get it
Edit: I get it now
The shipping costs make it a bit too much for my wallet to handle, which is sadly not subjective 🦆
Thank you for inspiring me to start my own Pokémon channel and not giving up, I hope to draw on your level in the future! :)
Next region fakemon water shark? starters
i'm just waitin for my paycheck lol >:3
I will sleep better knowing that Jack watches Shiny Catherine.
Listen, I love me some shiny hunting content
I will sleep better knowing that Jack watches AsumSaus.
I deeply appreciate your take on fakemon advice, mostly that it's just incredibly solid art and character design advice. The emphasis of theme and storytelling is a great inspiration
I deeply appreciate your deep appreciation ❤️
I like how Meracostra & Quetzillian are both dancers with both looking more feminine & masculine respectively. And with how the pokedex describes them, I can so vividly imagine the two preforming together in a synchronized dance
Aw, it makes me so sad to hear your struggles! As a young artist, I love your videos and love your work, and I honestly appreciate how chill and relaxed you are. You're a calming presence, so please, don't feel bad you lack a huge fire in your life. You're already amazing, if my word for it is worth anything :]
See? Loving, encouraging comments like these are why I do it. Thank you so much ❤️
the way Meracostra would be my all-time favorite starter if it was real
hard same; never expected to find a design that i would love more than, say, swampert or chestnaught, but meracostra is such an incredible design. i need one Right Now
meracosta would be probably be my favorite water type and maybe one of my favorites, knowing that one of my favorites is pheromosa
You tricked me; this isn't a turn brain off Pokemon video, this is a well put together piece about character design! Dang it, I'm learning helpful tips to integrate into my own art! Can't believe the deception.
This is Fakemon, not Shaman King!!
I think youre forgetting the second half of that quote 'Jack of all trades, master of none...but often times better than a master of one!' Dont downplay your skills just because you know people better in any one area. Your unique combination of video editing, drawing, and enthusiastic but reflective fannish joy makes you the best artist i follow bar none! And every video is a joy for that reason ❤
You may consider yourself a master of none, but you are a huge inspiration regardless. This has been my favourite youtube channel for the last few years and I absolutely love these insights into your process.
Absolutely agree!!
Passion is a buzzword - it's easy to regard other people's work as passion, but it's hard to "feel" passion in yourself.
But you've already taught what it means to be passionate in all of your videos (especially this one and the Elorimanda one): it's taking your time to make a design as much to your liking as possible, because nothing quite hits like a well-done design. Maybe you still don't feel it in your gut, but that passion already flows through the blood of your work, both your designs and your videos.
I've rescued many of my own fakemon designs by applying your lessons from the Elorimanda video. Don't know if you'll see this, but I owe you a big thank you for my learnings!
I definitely relate to "jack of all trades, master of none", I'm fairly decent at a lot of things but it seems like I take a hit in how fast I develop skills past a certain point because I can't keep a sustained and focused effort on just one thing. Learning to be okay with that is maybe something I should focus on :-)
"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." this is the complete quote, so yeah, keep being a jack of all tradess :D
I know this is silly but don't ever get discouraged if you find yourself as a "master of none." The full quote ends with "but oftentimes better than a master of one." !!! Your art and storytelling is really inspirational for so many of artists out here :)
I still hope that these starters could make it into tha mazah game as an easter egg for completing the dex or just some post game side quest
Yes, and I still want to know what is Jack’s team from Mazah region
The professional poke artist be like: hmm we should take notes
They better
Um, I'm pretty sure they are good. Yeah, they could get inspiration from other designers on TH-cam and such. But they are professionals. With all the help of the actual Pokémon company.
@@Magdalena8008s I don’t know about that most of the fan Pokémon are knockouts I can’t say the same for most of the recent official designs. But to each their own
@@albertlewis4903 The vast majority of Fakemon designs are just straight up bad. But if you find a great Fakemon artist that aligns with your taste, it's only natural that you like their designs more consistently than the official ones.
The official Pokemon artists try to appeal to all sectors of the audience with different designs, but they can only include 100-200 Pokemon per game because they're rushed and there's a whole development pipeline to put a single Pokemon into the actual game. So, there's probably only gonna be a few Pokemon in the whole game that you really love.
In mi opinion, Galar was the region with the weakest designs so far, but Paldea is going pretty strong (even with the wasted potential of most future paradox forms).
@@albertlewis4903 that's because you're only exposed to the best fakemon designs on the internet. the best out of like hundreds of thousands posted.
Everytime he's like "idk if I'm passionate enough" I'm just like, bro you made a whole region, did multiple redesigns, and put a lot of care and research into each design/redesign. I can confidently say you are passionate plenty lol! Also what a great video as always! I'm definitely keeping this in mind when I finally think of my own pokemon region or just character design in general.
these all look great! i love that you made both humanoid and animalistic final evolutions for people who enjoy either ones. I'm team merracostra all the way though, the key art is just perfect
🦀 💃🏾
My new favorite emoji combo
Meracostra is actually fire as hell. The posing you gave them with the extra arms gives such a nice vibe that I love. Realized I was really digging it when I started thinking to myself what hidden ability would be sweet for them. Great designs all around, and insightful advice as always, excited to see what the Project Untamed team has cooked up since the early demo.
Thanks for the Digimon tips!
Big Thanks
This is for yokai watch actually.
@@chunkymonkey7983 my mistake
Digimon tips be like: full black shadows and zipper 😊
"Faker!"
I feel like not enough people acknowledge that passion can be quiet. It's easy for us to point to the most animated and vocal people as demonstrations of passion, but quiet persistence and dedication are markers of passion as well. This video was great, and hopefully I'll be able to convince myself to get back into art soon so I can follow the advice you shared!
I love getting to see new Pokemon designs but I would also really love to see you break down and tackle the Digimon design philosophy
That would be a looooooong video
that'd be awesome but as Jack said it'd be a very long video and I understand if the relative lack of audience would deter anyone from making smth like that, it's hard enough finding people who draw fan Digimon as-is lol
Fakemon and fakemon tips? What a treat
As someone who is a budding Fakemon designer this helped out a lot. I got like 5 regions in the works (too many ideas flowing in my head lol) and ive enjoyed designing them. Im very passionate about it. I do have slightly different steps but it works for me. But this helps with some confidence which tends to waver off and on..
Fantastic job! Tomlock is definitely my personal favorite, but they've all got something to love about them

(Can we get a turkey gun chain???)
Finally something to compete with my other favorite pokemon 🐢🔫
@@nubujubu4388Now all we need is a grass one of some kind and the “trifecta of perfecta” shall be complete.
The fact that you're making a half an hour long video pretty much proves you're as passionate as whoever you're comparing yourself to.
Passion fades. You're persistent; that's the real superpower.
the gastronaut figure looks so insanely good
1. this is really solid character design advice in general which is what i look for in fakemon advice, so i really liked this video
2. i love the gun bird A Lot
Honestly this made me feel so relieved. I'm happy you are talking about this. As someone who feels as though they aren't as passionate as others and continuously wonders if I am a "true fan," and or fake autistic for not feeling like I have a hyperfixations as strong as most people. This really hit home for me.
Its nice to know that, yeah, I'm not alone in feeling this way. And just because someone may be more passionate about the same thing you like, doesn't mean you like it any less, or that the art you create is less than theirs.
Art is art, and as long as you enjoy the things you create, and the stuff you are into makes you happy, then that's all that maters.
Contrary to what most people think, you don't have to prove yourself to others if you like something. it's just enough to enjoy the things you like.
I have no clue what kind of specific value this could hope for the designs, but i love the idea that the transition between the middle and final evolutions is a HUGE difference, like a crazy glow up. I might be exaggerating, but I find it reallt interesting because finding a good middle evolution is very difficult. The one thing that I find amazing here is how clearly the designs are focused, shown greatly in the final evolutions. I have no clue what each one says or means, but each final evolution feels like its telling me "I'm who I am" in a human way like when you can a badly written character from a deeper person. Each final form feels like a person that you would be able to long a long, good chat to, which I personally enjoy and love that idea. My favorite part about art is not being a great drawer but still being to love and appreciate it!
man, I love so much the design of meracostra. his details hit me on personal level.
As soon as you said the Hahbah region was based on New England, my heart soared! I'm designing a *currently unnamed* fakemon region based around my home state of Maine! This video is an absolute savior for me! I've been working on it on and off for at least 5 years, with many of the designs not getting past a theoretical name, but watching this has definitely boosted my confidence! Thank you sincerely from a very enthusiastic Maine artist!!!!!
As an artist I’ve had times where you start off really enjoying drawing certain things but then eventually feeling stuck drawing that. All I can say is don’t feel guilty for wanting to do something else, I’ve taken month long hiatus’s and sometimes even left it alone for a year just to focus on drawing other things. I absolutely love your style and find your videos relaxing and fun. So I’m happy with whatever you choose to do 😊
I've recently gotten into design/concepting after years of working exclusively in 3D making production art and vids like this are a goldmine! Thankyou Jack
It doesn't hurt that the designs themselves are incredible too! I honestly can't pick a favourite, any of em could end up on the team.
I would consider you to be one of the best Fakemon artists I know of and it's wild to me that someone I consider to be one of the best feels the need to preface the video with "I don't think I'm that amazing at this but here are my opinions on it". I'm a pro artist in the games industry and constantly battle the imposter syndrome but you're right, it is kind of comforting to know that people I think of as amazing artists struggle with it as well. There's the assumption that every other artist I admire knows that they're great and that's why their art is so good. We're definitely all harder on ourselves but it's something I'm getting better at and I hope the best for you as well. You're REALLY good at what you do
Chillbilly isnt a freakishly muscular humanoid start *nooo!!!!!!!*
In all seriousness, I love both this video and its designs! Your thoughts on art anf imprivment really resonate with me, and hearing what you habe to say makes me smile. Also, Tomlock is so badass, i love it! I also like how the water final had two sets of arms for extra expression! So cute!
i enjoy the prideful and proud promotion of the gastronaut figure, very fun
I am a fakemon artist myself but this helped me really get that good sugimori style. Thanks.
I GOOGLED HOW TO DRAW FAKEMON LITERALLY YESTERDAY HOW DID YOU KNOW?????
Jack knows all
he is the man behind everything
Bleatdown is a fantastic name
I LOVE TOMLOCK! holy cow what a cool design!
I learned after art school that I wasn’t passionate about being an artist, I’m passionate about being good at anything I do. Whether it’s oil painting or balancing numbers on spreadsheets, I like applying my unique skills and creativity to different challenges. I like being good at stuff. I like showing off my work… I like looking at everything as my craft.
Just enjoy what ever you are currently doing and don’t beat yourself up for having diverse interests.
i've actually been thinking about revisiting a fakemon design i worked on a few years ago, this video is genuinely such a help with my struggles on it!! definitely gonna rewatch once i get back into the nitty gritty of the design process tbh
I've been struggling a lot with the idea of being a perfectionist. For me, everything I make has to be the best thing i've EVER made. This philosophy of creating is super unhealthy and it makes me feel as if i'm losing passion for making things. I've slowly been trying to come around to the idea of "done is better than perfect" and hearing your take on being passionate and doing things you enjoy is extremely comforting.
I've been watching for years now and you've been a huge inspiration to me and a driving force in why I started my own channel. Thank you for all the fun, comforting content! 🥳
I'm not an artist but I still love these sorts of videos where artists break down their process of creating something. I love learning about what inspires artists and how they translate that inspiration with their art style.
Jack was one of the driving forces behind me deciding recently to make my own fakemon drawing channel and it is so comforting to hear that even at his level those feelings still creep in. Thank you for your words
Decided to actually take notes and this whole video was filled with so much amazing advice. Not just for drawing Fakemon, but general character design tips as well. Thank you so much for this! Also, Tomlock looks SO sick!
You are the guy that made me appreciate all fakemon content. I didn't really know it existed before you. You are great and so are your drawings. Keep up with your amazing content!
You Are good at what you do. You are by far my favorite fakemon designer! Your concepts and execution always make me wish the Pokémon were real and I could put them in my team in a playthrough. And that is ultimately what you want from a design I feel.
I appreciate the honesty and openness regarding your passion. As a writer (who works veeery slowly) I’ve asked myself a lot of the same questions. I see other writers pump out loads of incredible work and win awards and such, and I feel like I’m just not as dedicated.
But then I remember that passion isn’t just enthusiasm or productivity. I think true passion is the willingness to commit, to keep working even if you don’t feel like it that day or aren’t having fun.
Jack, I don’t think you have any less passion for what you do than those other creators. You wouldn’t be able to see a three year project to its conclusion without intense passion for your craft.
Some passion burns bright, some burns steady. 🙂
The final state of the fire type starter is really cool. I really don’t like any of the official newer starters (the last good looking ones I really like were in Gen 4) and wouldn’t have them in my final team. But if that fire turkey was a real mon than he would be in my champ team for sure.
I love snipster so much 😭 he’s just a moody lil teen that needs to be told he’s loved ❤️❤️❤️
Bro underselling himself insanely man come on you’re the goat don’t talk down abt urself like that fr
Great video that hits home! Especially about drawing Pokémon that makes us feel like we’re reliving our childhood memories. The reason why I “quit” drawing Pokémon is because I was so insecure of my art-style. It’s not Sugimori and others can duplicate Sugimori-style so much better than me. However, your video inspires me to focus on my own creativity and my own style. Thanks Subjectivity team for always being my #1 inspiration to draw!
Man is that lobster hot
I recently grabbed the gastronaut figure Im usually a grass type guy with the occasional water type but for some reason I really like Tomlock 😅
I didn’t know I needed a flamboyant lobster, but now I know that I indeed do need a flamboyant lobster
Shirmple's final evolution is chefs kiss! I want that in my pokemon line up
Wonderful video - I love everything about the crabs head, the shotgun turkey is incredible. Ordered the figure too, thank you for everything!
I am diggin' the hunter turkey Poke'mon! Inspired me to head back to my Fake'mon region for NY that I started a month or so ago. These tips were very helpful. :)
How lucky am i to see a new subjectively video aobut pokémon the day before my birthday? Btw fantastic video as usual jack.
I am someone who always tries to draw Fakemon, but gets frustrated I cannot mimic the actual style and end up moving on to something else.
You giving the advice of it not having to look just like the Sugimori style is something I really needed to hear. I will actually try to stick with it now! Great video, and amazing advice!
I found this video immediately in my feed after i drew a pokemon that looked like something a 6 year old would draw. thank you.
I LOVE THE SHRIMPLE LINE!!!
Thank you for the wise message at the beginning 👍🏻
I'm currently trying to get into many creative hobbies which I could end up liking. But often I secretly condemn myself as attention-seeking or passionless. It's humble to hear from such a great artist like yourself that even professionals doubt their motivation from time to time.
So don't worry people - you are not the disgrace that your inner voice gossips about occasionally. What ever your intent or your motivation is with creativity - don't hesitate because of steps you dislike or won't take - enjoy your feelings and ideas that started a creationary piece. 👌🏻
these starters are funny AND THEY ARE SOOOO HYPEEEE
I love the final evo of the fire-bird starter.... its so cool and its silhouette is awesome, especially the big belt looking pieces coming off it
THIS IS MY DREAMMMM POKEMON VERSE!!! And the water lobster is far and beyond my dream starter. This video is a field day for someone from the same part of the world, I hope you indulge yourself more often lol
Tomlock and Meracostra could exist today and become amongst my 15 top favorite Pokemon. Your designs are splendid.
great fakemon and great informational videos! i think the one passion that sticks out the most to me about you is storytelling. i think you’re very good at it and you’ve shown me how important it is to give each piece of art its story no matter how little or grand!
just ordered two of your figurines! one for me and one for my best friend who shared with me your mazda series almost three years ago. couldn’t be happier to be supporting a local artist from lil Rhody!
Thank you so much for the content you make. As someone who really struggles with comparing myself to other artists it’s so refreshing to see someone I look up to so much that struggles with the same thing from time to time and overcomes it. I’ve learned so much from y’all over the years and I’m looking forward to many more!
This is one of those videos that remind me on why I followed to get the view and opinion of a senior artist and see how they thought through a problem that I'm having
Tomlock is a dinosaur mix with a gun. That is so awesome
Nice touch with the Tuliyollal theme. Can't wait for the next Fakemon video.
Bleatdown is a hilarious name. Designing a fakemon is all the steps that were listed above, as well as naming it. It does a lot to describe what the fakemon actually is, even if the design might have multiple inspirations. For instance, my grass starter that I've been designing (and redesigning) is called Actilure, coming from Actias(scientific name for most moth species) Act, and Lure. As a Grass/Electric type, it disguises itself as a moth-based creature in order to lure in birds, then electrocutes them in order to get an easy meal. One of my favorite fakemon that Ive done.
I love all these designs, but especially the Fire starter, Tomlock's colours and vibe are just so cool.
Bro makes some of THE BEST fakemon I’ve ever seen, and he makes other vids to! I swear, stick him in a box, with a random peice of media, and some art tools, and let him do his thing for, like, a week, and he’ll have almost mastered the art style! Keep making more, man!
I’ve been making fakemon for a long time now and I’ve always seen you as a great inspiration I’m glad that you made this video for me to help Improve not only my art but also my motivation to finally work on only one region and stick to it as i have made so many failed regions and i hope to put my newest one on TH-cam soon also gobshots line is my favorite
I like how a lot of the advice you presented here can be used for art in general and not just for making fakemon / pokemon designs. Also the designs you showed in the video are great! I do feel like Bleatdown's scale is a bit too similar to kidkickoff, even though their silhouettes and overall shapes are considerably different.
The Gobshot line is my favorite, but I still really like the other ones too.
(Meracostra's design is quite similar to Quaquaval, but I don't think that is necessarily a bad thing)
Tomlock is defiantly my favorite. Its a fire turkey with a shotgun for a face. Whats not to love?
I actually really love that you went with a grass goat with a football theme, even though I'm not big on sports. But there are football stadiums that use goats to mow the grass instead of electric mowers.
Most of all, I love how you talk about art and design, seeing how concepts coalesce into an amazing finished product, and the process you put into everything you do. It's very inspiring as an artist. I'm (slowly) working on a game, and I can't help but keep coming back to your videos to learn how to better create my own creatures. Plus, you have successfully put Lovecraftian horror and Pokemon onto a single channel, and I cannot overstate how much I love that.
The final evolution of the little crustacean is so awesome... I can visualize it in 3d and in a pokemon game. Definetly hits the "this pokemon rocks" part of my brain
This video came right in time for me. I'm working on a project that involves creature design, I thought I had them, but looking back they were rather bland, I thought "I want them to look more magical, like pokemon!" I used to do fakemon (all be it very bad ones) when I was a kid, so this might just be what I need for my creatures! Thank you!
something i have noticed you being passionate about is improving yourself. this is especially apparent when you did reworks on fakemons you had designed previously and talking about how you could see yourself improving bit by bit
Have been using your Poketto brushes for a while now. Still not quite sure how to best employ each one, but I've enjoyed experimenting with them. I'm so glad you pointed out which specifically you use for line art and texture for your fakemon in this video. Also, Meracostra is prob my favorite of these. I like the whole line, but maybe I'm biased as I'm originally from New England myself and really miss those rocky beaches.
I LOVE THOSE DESIGNS! The fire starter is especially good!
I love Tomlock! my personal experience with turkeys is that they are SCARY, so the shotgun motif fits really well :D
I couldn't help but chuckle when you called yourself a /Jack/ of all trades.
I love Chillbilly, it just looks so big and lovable.
Also, thanks for the character design advice, it's really thoughtful.
This inspired me to get back into my Pokémon designs. I think something that you really hammered down as well is don’t only design Pokémon, but present them with emotion and make sure they feel like they can be your friend.
I absolutely adore Meracostra
James Turner is honestly such an inspiration to go for
He’s living the dream
Glad to hear the Tuliyollal theme everywhere I go ! ♪
Thank you for your video Jack, always so inspiring and full of widsom !
Whenever Subjectively uploads I involuntarily scream
These are great Jack! The middle stages especially are amazing. Literally some of the best middle stages I've seen official or fake. I especially love Snipster. Thanks for the great content as always!
I'm currently working on making a fakemon region/pokemon-like universe and your videos have always been a huge inspiration!! You have true talent, never stop making art ^_^
The design on Marracosta makes me want this to be a Gen 10 starter. My first choice. Gives me hope for a decent, powerful bug type. With the way it looks, it could have been either fighting or fairy as well.
Thanks for this video, I am a beginner fakemon artist (and character designer), this was really encouraging, thanks!
This video is really helpful. I've always had a couple of old fakemon on paper in the back of my mind, but I never touched them again cause I couldn't get good concepts and I always felt I couldn't make it work on paper. This video really helped me see what I could do to bring those concepts back!
Ngl the real life shiny hunting won me over and I ordered one immediately after hearing about those 1/100 odds. Can't wait for them to start shipping out!
