[KevinReijnders]

Goin' to give this a lil' sunday bump

[thepenmonster]

Here you go.

[KevinReijnders]

Oh wow this is great!
Love the tight graphical style!

[KevinReijnders]

[thepenmonster]

Thanks. There's a lot more polishing I'd like to do with it. But if I gave into that urge you wouldn't see the thing until 2025

[KevinReijnders]

Haha fair enough, I know the urge all too well. Besides, 2025 would have just missed the deadline

[KevinReijnders]

Shameless self bumping

[KevinReijnders]

Just Kyara bumping this challenge, featuring a concept outfit

[KevinReijnders]

Friendly reminder that the contest portion of the DTIYS challenge has just two weeks remaining.

Hey hey

I'm not much of a visual artist, but I stumbled over your comic and I loved it. Kyara is one of my most loved types of characters, strong, explorative, brave,... a bit chaotic.
So I tried my hands on your DTIYS and hope you like my drawing a bit. Didn't dare to alter much, only simplified some things so I could handle it.

Hope you get a lot more art of your wonderful Kyara!
Best wishes,
Hel

[KevinReijnders]

Ah I love it!

a bit chaotic

Only a bit chaotic you say?

[helldancer]

So happy to hear that! 🥰

Ah, weeelll... Maybe a bit more chaotic.

Right, here’s my entry for Kyara DTIYS! It took a while since I’ve been travelling, and I could’ve done a better job if I were at home.

The reason for this attire an pose you ask? My favourite scene in the comic is when Zack wants Kyara to try out the new practice bot he made and she takes off her jacket. To which we see Zack’s hilarious expression: “Is that really necessary?” And she replies “No uniforms in the dojo Zack…” XD XD XD I laughed out loud when I first read this. Here’s the reference:

Also, all the glowing stuff I’ve added is just my cyberpunk style of art.

The colours: I’ve never used so much orange / yellow / brown in my art and wanted to try something different. Took reference of some League of Legends Project Skins splash art.

Hope you like this version of Kyara @KevinReijnders !

[KevinReijnders]

Omg this is so cool!
It's really interesting to see her in a more realistic style, can't imagine how difficult it had to be to make sense of her cartoon nonsense hairstyle haha

Also really like that you were inspired by the first fight scene, if just so we can all admire her abs again haha.

[Glofernwolfe]

Thanks!! Yay!

Naw the cartoon hairstyle is well designed... it was easy to reference! Her expression was the hard bit.

And her abs yeah!! Had to draw that...

[KevinReijnders]

Her expression was the hard bit.

Oh I get it, I break the rules of anatomy with their facial expressions haha.

[Glofernwolfe]

Like all good cartoon / comic artists do !

[KevinReijnders]

One more week before the deadline!
At least, if you wish to be elligable for the price

[ThunderChicken]

I'm a-cookin' something up...

[KevinReijnders]

Looking forward to seeing the completed version!
