Art Trade - Faria - Poke-ing Around

Description

Task 4 for Round 6 of OC-training
Draw the dream or wish/goal of your assigned partner's OC.

Faria is a Pokemon Trainer from the Alola Region (Pokemon Sun & Moon).  She is also the Alola Champion (following on from the storyline from the game).
Surprisingly...
She doesn't want to be the very best,
Like no-one ever was...

*Embarrassed Pause*

Though she enjoys being the Alola Champion, Faria's dream is to discover ancient or lost knowledge.  Here, she finds an ancient lost temple.  Who knows what treasures it might contain.
(In the original version there was a guardian, something huge, at least three times Faria's height, hidden in the darkness.  Only the blue-green eyes were visible...)

Her decidueye is a Shiny Decidueye, which is why it has that particular colour scheme.

Art-wise, I'm trying to work on my backgrounds more.  I do like the overall effect here.  The Palm tree came out really well, and the ocean is both the part I'm most proud of, and the part that could use the most improvement in places :P

Pokemon belongs to Nintendo/Niantic/it's creators.
Faria belongs to :iconcelestialwolf66:

Though I'm not really a fan of Pokemon, I like the visuals in this one! ^_^ I also love how you color and shade her hair. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Here is a list of things you can improve on:

- I think you should have added more detailed actions instead adding huge gaps between action that'll leave viewers scratching their head and say "Where did that trap come from?"

- Something weird about the mouth. First, it's gray. Second, the way the mouth seem to curve inward from the sides. It's kinda scary. :/

- Wait, in the first panel clearly shows that's that she's at the beach. But at the panel, where Faria is falling to her possible doom. It looks like she's in a completely different place! It's like she was at the edge of a dirt wall all of a sudden...

Overall, I think you did a great job on the visuals. But the story is very confusing. It's hard to tell what's going. Where's the temple? Where did the symbols come from?
