Hello and welcome to the special challenge, that takes place this month!

The challenge for August is over, the results can be found here:
viewtopic.php?f=277&t=127513
Last month's winner was RamonMiranda.

Your task this month will be to draw Kiki, the Krita mascot.
Be creative and create a unique Kiki artwork!
The winner image will be printed on the Kickstarter reward t-shirts and the winner will receive a shirt.


The image must be safe for work since it will be printed on Kickstarter reward t-shirts.
To make printing easy, good proportions for the image are 3:4, 4:3, A3 and A4 (landscape and portrait).

You can find a lot of reference images by searching for "Krita Kiki" images with your preferred search engine.

As always, I wish you a lot of fun drawing.

--==How the challenge works==--

You can submit your image until the 24th of September, 12:00 UTC, by posting an image as answer in this thread.
For posting images, the same rules as in the Gallery section apply.

After that, a poll will be created and forum users can vote for the winner.
The poll will run for 7 days, the winner will be the one with the most votes until the end of the poll.

By posting your image here, you give us permission to print it on Kickstarter reward t-shirts.

Hi all !

Back to monthly drawing challenges, here is my participation:

Image

Testing Tyson Tan's workflow was a real pleasure ;)
to be fair, the link : http://tysontan.deviantart.com/art/Krita-Free-Painting-App-Tutorial-466497166
Thanks to Tyson for this detailed tutorial !

You can notice the reference to Kickstarter theme, and animation features...
The original file is a 8K image, so no worries if printing is needed. You can download it here : http://nylnook.com/en/img/kiki-2015-challenge/

My best wishes to all challengers !

Hi, new user here! I learned about the drawing challenge through Krita's main site and Twitter account and decided to participate. =)

Here's my entry:

Kiki the Cyber Squirrel
(Sorry, currently unable to embed the image here) *Edit: here's the image!

Image

Just a disclaimer, this was also done with MyPaint, Gimp and Blender in addition to Krita (wasn't sure if there's anything in the rules that the work needs to be done exclusively in Krita). Also, full-resolution/no background versions are available if needed.

I've actually known about Kiki for a while at deviantART and have been meaning to create fanart for her before. Learning about this drawing challenge finally got me to do so!

Thanks to the Krita dev team for their hard work on an excellent painting program! And good luck to the other participants!

Hi everyone!

It's been a long time since my first post, but learning to paint is a long and hard road (and I'll still be busy for a few months).
But I had an idea and wanted to give it a try.

Disclaimer: I'm not an illustrator, an artist, or whatever. So anything on this draft can be changed if needed - ghost Rembrandt can go away if it is too out of place.
Anyway this is still very rough, so if anybody likes it I'll try to bring it to a properly finished entry.

Thanks to the Krita team for making this possible!

Wow! I might want to have a T-shirt made for myself with this even if it doesn't win.

It's great to see many different rendition of Kiki! I happened to draw Kiki for Krita this month so I will also share mine here. I'm not competing for the t-shirt design, though! Just to join the fun!

So many incredible artworks posted already! Great job, guys!
This is actually my first post in the forum, and I had a great time drawing Kiki, as I was already searching for a reason to (as I'm a big fan of Krita and Tysontan's drawings). This challenge fitted like a glove to my needs, so there it is, my part in it!

Image

And here's the full version link.

Made entirely on Krita and with some liberties with the character's design, but I think it turned out not as bad as I thought it would. I'm feeling quite proud of it, to be honest!
Well, I hope you all like it, and I sure am waiting for more awesome artists to participate!
