Nano Block Johto starters and gift Pokémon done. Woot!

Cyndaquil joins the collection as a nanoblock figurine. I also have Eevee, Totodile and Chikorita nanoblock figurines that I’ll put together later. The collection grows!

After putting together Cyndaquil I checked what Pokémon figurines exist and realized only five are available in America (Pikachu, the three Kanto starters base form, and Charizard). After the three Johto starters I had to get two packs of two 20 by 20 plates and that’s when I grabbed Eevee. Might as well have as many figurines as plates.

I installed GIMP so I can use layers (I was using the Windows 10 built-in drawing pad before) and I can’t decide if Turtwig 「ナエトル」「naetolu」 looks better with an outline or without.

I had some free time the past couple of days, so I hooked up my drawing tablet and sketched a couple of starter Pokémon. Being in Japan, Pokémon just felt right.

I think Chikorita looks better. Here are the Japanese names:

• チコリータ 「chicorita」「chikorita」
• ゼニガメ「zenigame」「squirtle」

Only snapped a couple of quick pictures, but I’m at Sunshine City and was just at the Pokémon Center. There’s a lot of stuff in the store, too much to choose from.
