While this isn’t strictly the first time I’ve drawn any manner of rubber/rubber suits, I’ve never actually properly… nailed down nor practiced any technique for rendering rubber, in my style at least. Like… actually try to make a rubber suit look like rubber, or something akin to so? Not just add a big highlight, ya know?

Well… that’s what I felt like, at least. So… that’s why I did this pic. To figure out and practice rendering a rubber suit~ Plus… I get a chance to draw a rubber Riolu suit. And I ain’t gonna pass up a chance to draw that. XD

Hmm… I feel like I can do a lil’ better, but… ehh. Still looks good to me. Learned quite a bit too. So at least that. :3
