Mona...Killjoy? by Macabre-Cat94 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

For DeviantART's #MonaLisaFixed April Fools Event.

I was having quite a dilemma for how I was going to approach this April Fools challenge. Originally, I was going to redesign Mona Lisa as an Egyptian styled art, but there was something like that out there already. So, there went THAT idea.

After scrolling around the hashtag on DeviantART for ideas, I've noticed some users have some popular characters try to recreate the pose and the environment that the original Mona Lisa had. I was trying to decide which female character I could use for this little recreation. The options I had were: Lord Dominator [Wander Over Yonder], Gardevoir [Pokémon], Megurine Luka [Vocaloid], Mirage [Aladdin TV Series], & Katie Killjoy [Hazbin Hotel].

I Googled the Mona Lisa image to use as a reference for the environment's portrayal and the posing. Katie is supposed to be somewhere at Studio 666, probably an hour before the news broadcast for the day. It took a couple tries to get her arms to have an almost equal length and to mimic the pose the original Mona Lisa had. I took some liberties with Katie's dress, I wanted to mimic the dress the Mona Lisa had. However, as time went on when I was designing it, it started to look like a low cut dress for a Saturday Night out. The macabre designed frame around the image was a last-minute addition to the artwork.

Happy April Fool's Day everyone!
