July Reward Art: Zarya vs Pharah

Added 2018-07-01 16:27:25 +0000 UTC

Glad to report that the new guy I tried out works fast! Plucked from a matchup of two of my favorite Overwatch girls. It wasn't written with a bearhug, but it felt like the best summation of their various matches over time. Attached an earlier draft and the lineart below.

But with a few more donors, we might cross that 100 line for art every month! Glad to say we've been steadily growing over time, and you've all helped greatly with keeping me feeling motivated and appreciated.

"We're back one more time, fans, and here's the fight everyone's been waiting for. Pharah, the long-time champ and vet of the league, is going up against Zarya, the Russian bear that's held the rank of the heaviest and strongest wrestler in the league, if not the world. What's your weigh in on this, Harty? I don't believe for a second that you don't have some opinion on all this."
"YOU HAVE ZAT RIGHT, SEVENTY! ZIS MATCH VILL BE ONE FOR ZE AGES! BOTH WRESTLERS ARE STRONG BUT IN DIFFERENT VAYS! PHARAH CAN COME UP FROM BEHIND AND GIVE SOME AGILE PUNISHMENT VHILE ZARYA CAN SLAM YOU TVENTY FEET INTO ZE GROUND! ZIS IS A HELL OF A FINAL MATCH!"
"I know folks have been waiting for it for ages. Pharah's had a death grip on that title, and beaten just about every wrestler on the roster to keep it. Zarya and Widowmaker are generally her closest competition, with the two of them bumping elbows to try to get the number one contender spot. Zarya's going to be sure not to waste that chance."

"YOU KNOW IT! BOTH KNOW ZERE IS TOO MUCH ON ZE LINE TO MESS UP, SO THIS COULD GET UGLY VERY FAST... IF VE ARE LUCKY."
