Description
I've had this burning desire to draw something fancy for SM but already did ULTIMATE GROUP FANART not too long ago. Β Rather than retread old ground, I hereby send my love to those wonderfully whacked-out prototype designs , and to a lot of out-of-context stuff I loved from the show's first season.Β (C lose-ups of those newspapers where I drew over tabloids and news headlines)| tumblr || twitter |

awesome, awesome, awesome! i'm a fan of the proto-senshi myself! and i love love love the scattered headlines/TVs, really makes me think of the first season of the 90s anime, where they really brought on the "local superhero" feel. great job!

Thank you very much! I'm sorry to be so late in replying, because I really enjoy your appreciation of those details (the local superhero thing was one of my favorite vibes for that season)!Β

Man, I love this. Beyond the super-fun, punchy use of the limited colour palette, which I love, and the incredibly fun and dynamic composition - it's plain awesome to see some appreciation for the concept stuff! The whole spirit of those early pictures? Nailed it!
So. Cool.

I'm sorry to reply this late - but thank you so much for your words of appreciation, here! Β The concept stuff was just so wild and cool. Β I love what we got but it's fun to think, "what if?"

I'm sorry to be so embarassingly late in Β replying to you. Β I actually do plan on making some more prints this summer, if you still have any interest I can add you to a one-time mailing list, or message you here on DA! Β

What program did you use to make your art in, Photoshop?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes...I think. It's been many months but I know the colors were 100% Photoshop, if not the lines as well.

I really like the bright colors and your take on the Sailor Scouts!!!

Thank you!  The designs are Takeuchi's (moonsisters.org/moonsisters/Th⦠but I loved drawing them!

wah love it! It's fun to revisit favorite characters with a different edge. Has a very retro fun look. I remember seeing those old concepts from the mangaka but I think you did something really dynamic with them.Β

(I'm sorry this is so late!) Β Thank you! I can see why those prototype designs weren't practical for the comic (or for the visual message of "Hey girls, your school uniform is totally a superhero costume!"), but they were so cute and fun to draw here. Β

I bought this at Otakuthon and I'm still completely in love with it. It is now hung up in my hallway and I get distracted every time I see it hehe. Great job!

!! Β I am so glad that you've enjoyed it! Β And thanks for supporting the table.

My pleasure! I'm still super glad that I bought it. I'm also still completely in love with it. I think this love-at-first sight will last a long time :3

I love this so much that it is now my desktop wallpaper! It suits it wonderfully too, I hope you don't mind. It's just so inspiring.
Would you be willing to make the other sailor scouts in this fashion? It would make a killer series! Wish you had done Wicked Lady, too!
Anyhow, I love it. I love it, I love it.
xoxo

Hi there, sorry this reply is so late! Β I'm so glad you've liked it enough to honor it as your wallpaper, I absolutely don't mind. Β
As to the other scouts (assuming you mean the Outers) - giving them this kind of look would be more original and ambitious than what I did here (which was essentially yanking Takeuchi's prototype designs), but you're right, it could be really fun. Β It'll probably be a while but I'll be thinking on it!

I just bought this yesterday at Otakuthon and I absolutely adore it. Thanks for being there so I could discover your work!

It was my pleasure! Thank you so much for coming by, I'm really glad you like it. Β Hope you had a great Otakuthon!

Hey, if I wanted to buy more of your prints, where would I do that? I only see your twitter and tumblr listed on your page. Am I blind? D:
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha, not at all! Β I've been floundering about which online storefront to go with (storenvy? etsy?) and the best way to ship such big prints (cardboard tubes? boxes?). Β I'm hoping to set up something in September now that Otakuthon's done, and will definitely update here when that goes down. Β \o/ Holler ifΒ there's anything you'd like to see available!Β

The Paranoia Agent/Sailor Moon crossover is the one I have my eye on.Β
Would selling right here through dA work? They handle the actual printing/shipping and pay you a percentage, right? Or is the percentage too small to not make it worth it?Β
Also, in my experience, cardboard tubes are wonderful for mailing prints. Some people prefer the flat boxes, but I frame every print I buy, so being rolled is a non-issue to me. Β (Yours got framed yesterday! It lives by my computer now.)

I'm so sorry, I fell off DA for the last month due to a heavy workload, you deserved a much more prompt reply!
For a SM/Paranoia Agent print: I just checked and found that its file is only about 7 inches tall (the original linework comes from my sketchpad). Β As DA doesn't allow fanart prints, and as I would feel bad charging for such a small thing (and because I also really appreciate your stopping by and supporting the Otakuthon table!), would you like the original file to print as you please? Β

Love this one! It reminds me of one of these 60s pop art inspired pieces.
