KAY-9 Contest – Discussion and In Progress Thread

Hi! I would maybe suggest you change up composition for a bit. It seems to me like standard/rectangular format would work better for what (I think) you’re going for.
It would allow you to utilize the depth of space you indicated here better and rearrange character in more dynamic way. When they are like this it seems like they are all crammed in one line like the’re posing awkwardly for a photo xD If you place them more into the space like I put on the right, it’s just seems more dynamic.

Basic and boring = great foundation to develop something interesting. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. This may seem basic but it tickles imagination 😉 (you may be onto something with that cane)

[Yuushin7 Dramicanin]

Aa~ it’s bit quiet in here 😀 Oh well, from the past experience it gets the wildest near the end anyway :p
I was getting better feel of my characters more in meanwhile and I have base for what my possible final image might be, so I’ll be working on establishing my final comp for next week. And their weapons. I have idea what they might be, but I still have to design them :3

(CLICK HERE) 

P.S. I’m hoping I have a clear up of time to really work on this so I can try entering.. but if not I hope everyone else gets to a finished point! 🙂

You have some really cool ideas there, canta wait to see them finished :D.

I specially love the first comp in the little rectangle, there is something about it…

cheers!!

[Jerry Chu]

Here is what I have so far…. looks like some part of the concept is already used xD

Here is some scrap ideas

[Jerry Chu]

they all look so good, I like female 3 male 6

[Jerry Chu]

he looks perfect for an over size weapon IMO =0

[Mr Dessin]

@Gordana Really like your last doodle ! But I can guess the bottles background will take you forever to finish ^^’

Otherwise I really like the 3rd image (guy alone), but his weapon dart not so much. And the sort of 1920′ fashion costumes (on the other designs) is really cool, and sure those cute masks.

@JerryChu Your 1st design look stylish…but maybe it needs some weight on his shoulder to be more interesting ? Could be a floaty coat or something. Weapons look pretty cool too.

[Yuushin7 Dramicanin]

Hahah, I’ll do my best to avoid those bottles (not have them as much). I’m gathering refs of some night clubs at the moment for that purpose xD

O yea, 1920’s, I was reading Baccano novel recently, plot taking place in 1930’s focusing on local gangs in NY, so that has pretty strong influence. :3

[Jerry Chu]

Thanks for the point it out, I think I might have a solution to that =)

Hey guys!

I have a question about the Kay-9 contest.

I was thinking about doing a character with a Foo dog mask. Is that still valid?

😉

[cody rasmussen]

any dog, any kind! as long as its Canine themed.

[Daniel Bustamante]

I finally got my final comp, I will be finishing this one. I am still usuree about my hand-painting skills but I think it looks good enough for now. 

Greetings! 😀

Im not sure why it looked so small in the entries’ page. But whatever 😀 Here’s my entry! I thought I’d share it here 🙂
