Radian: @Makkon: I totally like this idea (and kinda jealous of your designs :\ )
But I have a little problem: if I try to make Katia BADASS she don't looks happy and then she's happy she don't looks even 50 lvl.
Also I think some of my previous pictures fit the challenge.

Radian: Anyway thanks, you "shake" my imagination and it gave me some cool ideas.

KillerfishSG: I really feel like drawing katia in some warframe armor :F

Makkon: @Radian: She doesn't particularly have to be happy, or even any or all of those things listed. They are merely examples to help illustrate the intent of the challenge. If you draw her at level 50 and she is badass but looks unhappy, then draw it! She just needs to be powerful, or at the very least look capable.

@KillerfishSG: Doooo eeeeetttt.

Vidiotdragon: That is a demon head of deep regret of life choices.

Geravind: Khajiit can't recognize the armor -- steel? ...orcish?
Looks cool anyway!

Kewot_Rokar: Katia's ancestor.

AMKitsune: Damn, by the time the comic updates, we'll have gotten so used to this new 'Badass Managan' that 'Regular Managan' will seem like even more of a noodle armed pansy (and pansy that tries her best though, and that's what counts).
@KillerfishSG: YES! I don't really follow the whole Warframe thing but if you're putting your hand to it, it's probably going to be awesome.
@Geravind: Probably modded.

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: @KillerfishSG: Better be Valkyr's frame!

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: @Radian: She kinda looks like she got bored of being bad ass all the time :v

Makkon: Larger textless version so you can see all the smudges and problems.

POMA: cheekbone and muzzle line look a bit off and legs are too long. Overall this looks very neat and I like that old-fashioned scandinavian/british outfit.

P.S. That challenge is about any character or strictly Katia?

Nyflex: @Makkon:No, it gives tough image. The new gear is fit for her.

woundedkneecap: Very uniform in style. I like how the fire is drawn as a set of defined shapes and angles. If I was to draw this, I would have drawn curvy fire shapes which wouldn't match this very angular and stylized appearance of Katia. It stands out and looks very well done. Also, Katia blep :P

TL;DR: You drew Katia better than I would have!

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: Well she definitely has adorable bad-ass going for her.

FateLyre: @Makkon Do you have any kind of art blog or something I can follow?

forestOverlord: @FateLyre: I asked myself the same question this morning. Here.

FateLyre: @forestOverlord: Thanks.

Makkon: @POMA my intent is for Katia, as she is particularly the biggest loser in cannon.

AMKitsune: Not only do you make her an awesome badass here, but she's poking her tongue out a bit to! You've somehow successfully combined baddass with derp.
Bad-derp? Derp-ass? Whatever the case, it's undeniably brilliant!

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Pizza time.

Vidiotdragon: How come drawn pizza is always 99% more cheese than in real life... its unfair.

SameButDifferent: Must be making my pizza wrong then, that's how homemade looks

notabigthreat: avenging machete \ frosty blade's gleam – right above \ warm corrupt north neck

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Kaz, you missed the purrperfect opportunity to draw an arrow to the pizza, with text saying Pizza! you fool! UNACCEPTABLE!!

AMKitsune: Pepperoni? Pfft, peasant.

Ham and Pineapple master race FTW!

BadReligion: @AMKitsune: Srsly? and ppl call me sick...

Filthypaladin: @AMKitsune: ugh... where are the mods when you need them.

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: @AMKitsune:

Makkon:

TemporaryFace: I suppose the 'Official_Badass' tag will be used for subsequent entries to this challenge?

tronn: Would it be okay if I drew her with a good ass instead?

SameButDifferent: @tronn as long as it isnt an ugly ass

Vidiotdragon: Barbarian Bike-shorts. The best kind of bike-shorts.

Makkon: @tronn Kickass is also acceptable.

Arcsome: I accept this challenge. I will make Katia bad ass...or something close to it. We shall see, haven't posted much art in here for a while so I'll think of something. :)

Makkon: @Arcsome: You've got a few pieces that already fit the bill, looking forward to your entry!

Geravind: Khajiit noticed, that the lower parts of her legs are a bit disproportional to the rest of her body (even without the fluffy boots). Either her torso is too narrow or leg-hip joint-points are too far from each other. Khajiit is innocent of this crime.
This one greatly appreciates her badassery level here. =^_^=

Makkon: @Geravind: Yeah, I see it. I've addressed this in later drawings. Thanks :)

Nasi: Even when you say Katia is high level and badass I still worry for her when she holds a sharp weapon... ._.""

PS:(Btw Makkon you are amazing! Love your tumblr how you draw faces, bodies, armor... Well yeah, everything <3 Also for some reason it really inspires me when person with such great skill enjoy a small fandom like prequel?.. It like reminds me that noone has to draw tons of popular shit to be awesome because it's not only about what people want you to draw but what you want to draw and how you do it? Sorry for many words.)

POMA: Im practicin perspective so would like to hear any critique before I start coloring this picture.

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: The hands should be closer, because the way she's posed, she would probably topple over, (fitting, seeing as her luck isn't good anyway) it looks unnatural. Her eyes are a little close, they need to be slightly squished horizontally. everything else, it looks fine to me. (and still adorable!)

CaptainLackwit: @Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Does have a tail to help balance her out though.

POMA: She's leaning forward on her hands, sideview is something like this - http://i.imgur.com/S7SvlQr.png

angrybacteria: I'd suggest that you give more bend to her arms. When they form a right angle like this it makes her look very close to the surface she is leaning on.

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: My adorable have been officially worn out.

Skoon: Her elbows should be facing back into the distance a bit more and her "arm pit area" wouldn't be quite as visible.

It's actually a really good attempt however.

BadReligion: Yes you dumb cat, it is your nose, leave that mirror alone.

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: It's just to gods damn cute!

Geravind: Ха, Катька тоже любит кривляться в зеркало!

Вообще-то с этой стороны запястья должны быть не такие тонкие... даже у Кати. Перспектива это хорошо, но, если представить её распрямившейся обратно, не похоже, что в бёдрах она чуть шире плеч, а у девочек именно так.
Навряд спереди будет виден именно прямой угол в локтях (довольно неудобная поза, сам проверил). Локтевые щитки чуть выверни назад, т.к. предположительно кисти и локти немного позади плеч.

В целом няшно, продолжаю любить твой стиль рисования. =*_*=

DistantRoarOfWar: @stupid_smelly_greedy_cat_people: Wow. Nice comment. I was actually going for a bit of vagueness so that maybe people asked for more. And they did!

Radian: Damn, athletic girls is my weakness *_*

Streetwind: I totally expected the bottom panel to be Katia's usual scrawny and noodly-armed self in that posture... now that it isn't like that, I'm confused o_O

notabigthreat: If even Katia improved that much, how strong the enemies must be now?

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: Well katia is more of an arcane user, this would be her if she were more of a warrior/barbarien class.

AGMsInbound: It'm not really getting the last panel. What is there to "oops" about?

forestOverlord: I would also quite like to understand this comic.

Pepsidude: I mean it's chill to upload this but I'd like to upload my stuff too but fuck me right lol

DistantRoarOfWar: @forestOverlord: Soon.

@Pepsidude: No idea what you mean buddy. :p

angrybacteria: @DistantRoarOfWar: He's referring to a massive to do with the moderators deleting some things that were uploaded. The decision got a mixed reaction, lots of people were pissed, a huge debate broke out, etc. It's better just left at that.
Are you planning on explaining "soon"?

RedRuin: why

DistantRoarOfWar: Hey, these are pretty good.

Vueri nice.

I rate ten out of the ten ratings.

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: The little Katia up in the upper left corner is super cute! make it a full picture! ;3

Daniel: Those are awesome, and for some reason, very funny.

TemporaryFace: This is amazing.

AMKitsune: Of all the things to possibly point out, I can't stop thinking about how, in this context, that pearl earring makes absolutely no sense!
Also, I completely agree with ASW here.
All in all, amazing stuff (if not a little stylistically removed from the comic).

notabigthreat: Preliminary luck readings reveal that the earring is cursed and consciously following the victim while levitating.

Vidiotdragon: I never got to do fun stuff like this in my art classes...

Fatia_Maneater: that unicorn be styling needs to be bigger

BadReligion: That Rajirra with a pearl earring.

FonkDerok: wanted to make a new BO3 emblem and i found http://www.prequeladventure.com/fanartbooru/post/view/2918 in my ipad

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: I might make a world of tanks clan [PREQUEL] clan if anyone is interested.

Kewot_Rokar: Huh. Made a much less detailed Katia face on BO2. This however, is absolutely wonderful!

Anonymoose69: Kaz, I'm already a demon.

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: get out of here with your silly CG Cyborg arm ;p

Vidiotdragon: Oh, no. Not me. We never lost control.
You're face.
to face.
With the cat who sold the world. ♪

Pepsidude: Look at Katia! You keep calling her a cat but anyone can tell she's clearly a Khajiit!

Vidiotdragon: Khajiit has more syllables and would of ruined the pacing of the lyrics.

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: @Pepsidude: He is just a racist.
