Pokemorphs: Ellimist

thingiverse

My "Pokemorphs" series of 3D models is a result of a strange thought experiment, namely, what if the aliens from Animorphs were Pokemon? This is my interpretation of the Ellimist as a legendary Pokemon. It would be the cover-legendary of one half of the fictional Pokemorph generation of Pokemon. Someone suggested Pokemon Chaos (the other cover-legendary, Crayak, being on the cover of Pokemon Order). The Ellimist is a Dark/Fairy type. Yes, I know, his design SCREAMS Flying, but keep in mind that he can choose his physical form at will, and the form he chooses is intentionally reminiscent of his former Ketran body (Ketrans, if I ever model one for the Pokemorphs series, would definitely be pure Flying types). The 'spiral matter' that he is holding is intended to be suggestive of a galaxy, but is not a literal galaxy. It's just some matter that the Ellimist is coalescing into, I dunno, a Pemalite or the Time Matrix or something. I'm still not super happy with his hair, but after four attempts or so I decided that it was as good as it was going to get for now. I may take another crack at it later.
