Toy as Reference

A figurine gives you actual depth and perspective, unlike a 2D picture. It's genius, and I'm surprised that as long as I had a Nidorina figure, I hadn't done so until I made this pic some years back. If they've got some model accurate merch, I recommend this practice for any cartoon character. That said I took the liberty with expressions, though, and femmed her up. It's not her fault everything used the anime design, that's just the hand she was dealt.
