Scizor’s an interesting Pokemon that has captured the hearts of artists for its bold red and it’s steel type inclusion from G/S. Here’s some art picks for excellent Scizors from the near and far past

The contrast behind the background and the sharpness of the drawing makes for a great piece of art. I love the glove in Scizor’s eyes!

Scizor in this piece looks fearsome, and the color scheme makes it look even scarier (or cooler…). The details and the effects in this piece make it outstanding!

Next, we have a nice picture of Scizor on the attack. The use of color and shadows in this piece make Szicor come alive.

Lastly, in a piece from about 3 years ago, Scizor is attacking… you! This great piece of art makes Scizor look mad and really puts the viewer in the perspective of another pokemon in battle.
