Drawing Pokemon as military soldiers for a class final, can you guess who this is? (there is some hints in the sketches)

its been a while since I took part in a challenge ! felt inspired by the pics and drew some ideas, not sure if i'll finalise any of them though 🥹

🌟Andromeda, the divine caretaker of stars. She's part of an automaton species of interstellar beings who watch over planets and celestial bodies to ensure they maintain stability. With her gauntlets, she can manipulate the energy of stars and nebulas to prevent calamity. The material of her form has high-temperature resistance to withstand the strongest of stars and the cold of space. The inside of her skull holds a star representing the sector of the galaxy that they maintain, being able to communicate with other caretakers of the same galaxy. These references were super pretty to use as inspiration! For Andromeda herself I mostly referenced the shiny purple helmet and the cog as a hat on a mechanical android-like base. The gauntlets are based on the rock, and the helmet reference also inspires the open plates on the palms. This was an enjoyable way to exercise my creative exploration skills. I hope to be able to join the next one ehe ^^

Adathan and Yadathan, the Guardians of the Gate of Life Lost souls that travel the divine realm to reunite with their heavenly counterpart face many challenges across the Arcs of Descent and Ascent. At the final Gate, the judge and executioner await: the last Guardians, Adathan and Yadathan. They either grant passage to the world of light, where the weary spirit may find eternal calmness and be reunited with their heavenly counterpart, or they condemn the soul to eternal nothingness, making it part of Adathan's Damoclesblade. and that's it, calling it done with this. I ain't a story writer so please excuse my weak biography for the concept, but it was cool reading up on all those religious texts and concepts, great material for concept art

Hello! ,;//;, I thought it would be nice to show this rough progress here wahh- I'm currently trying to work with a design for a mech/robot figure and using different elements of the refs for pieces of the armor and the huge gauntlets. Still kind of playing with colors and accents - and I might try different designs from what I'm coloring atm, but overall trying to go for something elegant.. ✧
