This has to be my best drawing to date. I love it so much! These are my mascot entries for . I would enter this in the shiny contest at but a rule for the mascot club is that the entry must not have participation in any other contest. So... darn...
The Leafeon (left) is named Tierros, which is a reconstruction of earth in Spanish. The Glaceon (right) is Hielos, a reconstruction of ice in Spanish. These two brothers, when they were still Eevees, left on separete journeys to explore the word. Both of them stumbled across their evolutionary methods and changed to there current forms. However, each shifted into a form different from the average forms of Leafeon and Glaceon. Eventually, the two met each other and journey together across the lands, searching far and wide for new things.
Tierros
Tierros loves rocks and stone. Eventually he came across a leaf stone and had it turned into a necklace. Symbolically, the stone rests over his chest leaf, showing his harmony with the earth. Ever since he did so, whenever he paws over barren ground, instead of leaving an impression in the ground, moss almost instantly grows in that spot leaving a paw print of moss. Along his journeys, he found some green feathers that complemented his "shiny" self. Now he wears them all on one side of his head.
The personality of Tierros is calm and gentle. He views himself with his special and unique powers as a guardian of the earth rather then a fighter. However, he is very fit and muscular and could easily take most Pokemon he comes across if needed. He is also serious, taking things literally.
Hielos
Hielos prefers the cold so much that he chiped off fragments from the ice stone that triggered his evolution and now carries them with him at all times. He has one around his neck and another around his tail, thus creating a full air conditioned effect. Even with temperatures in the triple digits, he comfortably stays in a field of 60 degrees if there is no wind. Like Tierros, Hielos leaves special prints. His paw prints are covered in a layer of black ice. Somehow, he never slips on ice. He eventually became jealous of Tierros when he found his feathers to Hielos found some himself. Now he has a single feather mounted upon his forhead and four tiny feathers tied to his legs.
Proud but humble are the traits of Hielos. Like Tierros, he is also fairly strong and powerful but he is not reluctant to use it. If a conflict arises, Hielos is the one to step forth and fight. When he is severely angered, the land around him begins to freeze as the air around him plumits below zero (F). Though a serious warrior, he cannot help but tease Tierros for no particular reason other then to take a break from being serious.

Looking at Tierros just made me feel really, really happy. The leaves, feathers, and beauitful creaam-colored body look so nice together, a fusion of plants and animals, not just a few leaves slapped on. They compliment him almost like a crown of royalty, but he still looks humble and a part of nature. They even look oddly natural down by his feet. Oh, and his face looks great, not flat at all!
Hielos is naturally very graceful, though the flowing parts that come from the side of his face confused me for a minute. The one on the viewer's right looks strange, like it should either be behind it's face on the other side or have flopped a bit in the wind. I kinda doubt that entire side of it would be seen. Also, the head seems to turn too much, his head's angle appears to match his brother's. i guess it would be possible but there is so much shading underneath it looks almost cut off.
Other than that, haha, he's sorta pretty. The feathers are great, all nicely dangling, the top one so imperfect with a chunk taken out. Ears look good, floppy, and the tail being dragged along with the cold wind.
It's nice to see your pride! You should be proud, embrace it, you've created something.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
