Kiki Mascot Style

This is the mascot style version of Kiki the Cyber Squirrel, the mascot of Krita. The design derived from Techwear Kiki (2019 – 2020).

The sketch of this picture was drawn in 2020, during a challenging time for me as an artist. I couldn’t finish it then. In 2025, while sorting through my old works, I decided to clean it up and complete it. The overall design style remained largely the same, but there were subtle adjustments in perspective, pose, and structure. Additionally, to align with Kiki’s final techwear design, the blue in Kiki’s color scheme was removed and the “tail that seemed capable of eating people” was reshaped to avoid misunderstandings.

The splash art Kiki has a taller head-body ratio, which makes it difficult to use in various layouts for promotional/functional purpose. In this picture, I used a 1:2.5 head-body ratio, which is typical for mascots. I was generally satisfied with the result, but I have to prepare more pictures for different situations. And only with that, Kiki can realize her full potential as a mascot.
