| ~Please Read~ This is a group completely for Pokemon gjinkas. Show off your works, comment others, and maybe draw or receive fan art (: WHAT IS A GIJINKA? Gijinka (擬人化) is a Japanese word meaning "humanoid", "personification", or "anthropomorphic", although the use of the word outside of Japan has come to be slightly different from the use of the word "anthropomorphic" in the anime/manga/furry/etc communities. Rather than referring to just any animal with human characteristics, a gijinka is most often a fan re-design of an animal-like character from an animation or graphic novel in a human or humanoid form, (ex: a Digimon or Pokémon) or of a humanoid version of the artist's own original animal-like character. (Source) Or, basically, when a human is draw with looks like an animal, pokemon, place, ect. Here, you draw them where the have the looks of a Pokemon. Our mascot, Vinnie, is a Luxray gijinka. Anyone can join this group. If you help the group out a lot (Getting members, submitting artwork, answering questions, suggesting favs, ect.) You could be made an administrator When you submit art, please, don't submit things with zero effort. There are currently three folders: Male Gijinkas, Female Gijinkas, and Females and Males. Females and males are pictures that contain both genders, not just a folder for any gender. You can upload an unlimited amount of deviations, but again, dont upload a bunch of zero effort picture. They dont have to be your greatest masterpieces, but no unfinished sketches or stuff like that. PLEASE NOTICE!: The Featured folder isnt a folder for pictures that are really great and are there to be shown off. No! I usually put pictures in Featured when Im unsure of the gender. I wont get mad if every once in a while, gijinkas with obvious genders get put in there. But please, the Male, Female, and Females and Males folders are there for a reason. Thankies (: |
