As the creator of Grayster and Doroslien, I have a few comments about Xenith... and theyre good ones! You see, for a while I had been thinking about expanding the Grayster line, and your Xenith is a wonderful idea. The name is also very fitting. I dont know if this was intentional, but it reminds me of the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise, which also sport elongated heads and dark bodies. One thing, though: I see it better as an evolution for Doroslien rather than for Grayster. I propose you this: how about making it evolve from Doroslien, and since well be going D/P style, adding the Dark Stone to the mix? That way, it would evolve by using the Dark Stone when Doroslien has low happiness. In that case, I already have a counterpart in mind that would evolve with high happiness and the Light Stone. What do you say?

Finally, Id like to know if you dont mind if I make a new sketch for Xenith, with a few changes I have thought of.

Sorry to keep you waiting, but the past weeks have been very busy for me. But I finished both sketches at last, I hope you like them. First, a modified Xenith:



Ive given it skeletal fingers to make it look creepier, and in tune with the UFO stories about these creatures. But if you don't like some of the changes, please tell me and I'll see what I can do.
And now, its Psychic/Light counterpart. After some thought, Ive decided that its species will be called Enlightened Pokmon:



Super Saiyan head, I should have said. The idea of this line is not to make them too muscular.

As for your question, Pokeaddict:
I draw everything using a mechanical pencil. Afterwards, I ink the lines with a stylographic pen to make them stand out for the scanner. Once scanned, I use MS Paint to color the picture. Sometimes I make mistakes with the lines, and when that happens I correct them in Paint as well. So even though the computer gets some credit, all my drawings are made on paper, and by hand.

Ah, great question. I use the filling tool indeed, and to get rid of those areas I do the following: first, I scan the picture in shades of gray only. Then, I save them in Paint as a 16-color bitmap. That leaves all the drawings in black, white and two shades of gray. Then, I only have to remove the lighter of them and usually the drawing is ready to be filled that way. But if I have to use dark colors, I also have to remove the dark gray from the insides first. Also sometimes there are pixels which look awkward and that I have to correct.
I reckon that this is not the best way to get clean lines, but it has worked for me so far!

I'm glad you like them!
The eyes are red indeed, but in a darker shade, to match its previous form's black eyes. But I guess they can be made a bit brighter in the sprite.
