Winners and Participants of the GERALDINE DTIYS CONTEST !!
Guys, I received WAY more than what I've expected ! Like, truly, i'm so glad you found the time to participates and share, it truly means a lot to me that Geraldine received so much attention and love from you, it sure gave me the motivation to keep doing what I do : ) !
So, here are the entries ! From Deviantart, Tumblr and Instagram :
1st Prize : witchinatower on Tumblr
I really like this one. Just, the colors, the way the hair are drawn here, the joyful expressions on her face. The way the shading and lights are done, once again, both on the outfits a and the coffee cup, it's really sweet !
Also, fingernails ! I often lack fingernails in my drawing (I mean, they have thoses, but I just don't. draw it ^^', its only occasional depending on the context and character ^^').
but here, it looks cool ! It's pink cool : D.
Honestly, it's my favorite for the hair alone. It have so much charms here !
And now, the entries ! Once again, you guys did a lot of greats stuff ! Enough to make great categories, so let's see them ^^ !
Some more Geraldine with various style ! I didn't expected to. see her
@2RaymanM64 , @botres , and @emipello
Once again, great jobs ! 2Ray gave her so great shadings, and also, look into the background, there's a cameo ! Botres, similarly, hide another cameo ! Love those, it's details, yet it works so well.
Also, Emi did gave really sweet expression ! Love the "smoke" effect on the coffee too !
@PlatanoFrito1 , chazdaviscz and eep_hole2007 (Last two from instagram)
I do like how PlatanoFrito made here ? She have some smooth and blocky at the same time, specially on the hair, and the square shape on the background !
Chazdaviscz, went for a different style for her, I do like it !
Her face is very different, something Old disney-ish cartoon from the 2000's ? It's in the eyes, the nose, and the way the hair are drawn ? It's sweet !
Eep-Hole made her very cartoony ! I do like a lot the body shape, very small on the top, but still round on the bottom, it does works well .
The Traditional Geraldines :
It's still so sweet and nice to see traditional art from time to time ! Mine doesn't leave my sketchbook nowadays, so I really love seeing one like theses, and with various art-style !
Really like how she's drawn on both ! Mousart did gave her a nice form and shape, and she looks adorable ! She does look softer. Smaller nose though ! I'm so used to her big pointy cartoonish nose, so anything smaller always surprise me now :' ).
Pulbobot (Who also give the drawing step by step on his tumblr, go check !) Made this with Watercolor, and, I have to say, the pancakes addition ? I love this, great job. Good job on the colors !
the_xavi_zone from Instagram
He's among the artist who drew her full body ! I saw it was a recurring thing with some entries, it wasn't mandatory, but I love the idea ^^ !
Anyway, she looks good ! The position of the legs work well. She does look... extra rounder too ? Like, it's a thing with Geraldine, so it's all fine, but I still notice it ! I do like her expression, there's something Smug to it, I dunno why :' ).
The Neat Background & Geraldines :
Backgrounds were totally optional, but some of you still wanted to show what they can do, and I do like the results ! Let's check this !
@StaleTales , @Fighter1Manga , lotus_bud1804 and fernin_action_15 (Last two from Instagram)
StaleTales, I dunno where you find the "Geraldine likes Green" info, I checked, I may have mentioned it, like, once on a comment or something, because it was meant to be a tiny thing, but somehow, you made it a whole headcanon, and made her obsessed with green. It's not canon, but I do love the numerous details that are presents ! The idea is perfectly executed ! Neat stuff !
Figher1Manga, you're the only one who made Geraldine's office another color than green. It's an tough rupture, but I can appreciate the audacity !
Lotus completely removed the office here ! Here, it's Geraldine on vacation, and i have to say, that sunset ? It's so warm. I love this.
And finally, Fernin ! The background is relatively similar aside of one or two details, but look at her Computer's wallpaper :' D ! It's the good old windows XP, and it's nostalgic to me, it deserves this category.
The... rounder Geraldines art ? :
Category where technically, all of the current Geraldine art would fit in it, since she's a well rounded character after all. But those are slightly rounder than the other ones, but are also pretty good ! I prefer Geraldine being reasonably chubby, but those are sweet too !
@P-Gritt , @MundoCris, and @Basic-Account
P-Gritt, who's giving me the honor of his first art in one year with a Geraldine entries, did work pretty well with the shade and colors ! She does have the doughiest shape here, she loves muffins in this one :' )... but she also look really cute, so it gives a sweet charms !
MundoCris, once again, made a really good pixel art animation ! I almost would like a Geraldine mini retro game or something, really. She's adorable, the little wink, the tiny bounce on her belly, it's really good stuff. In General, I love Mundo's Geraldine, lots of good animated stuff !
Basic-Account, (Who's also the creator of Debbie ! I think I draw that bandicoot enough times to be worth mentioning it :' ) ) Just made her super neat looking ! She's very slightly larger in shape, but I guess I was in the mood to add this one here :' ).
@witchinatower on Tumblr !
And here it is ! Like, truly guys, I didn't expected that the little DTIYS would received more entries than the "big" contest ones, but I don't mind, the results here are numerous and amazing !
I had to only choose one prize this one time, but truly, you all did something that made me realized how much Geraldine & Mona is appreciated, and I just want to give you more ! Thanks a lot for your support on my art and on this comic, it truly means a lot to me !
Also, Deviantart noticed me, it's the 10 years of this account already ? Well, It sure means something is happening pretty soon then ; ).
