This is going to be long.

As you know, I also really love Strawberry Panic, regardless of any flaws I might see in it. It's really purely Yuri and that's something that's really hard to come by these days. I'm wondering, have you read the Manga yet? Or ventured in any of it's other media? I still recommend Maria Sama Ma Giteru to you which is basically a much more subtle Strawberry Panic, but Strawberry Panic was a parody of it. XD Also, the teddy bear girl is from Lulim and she's Kagome. And you didn't like any Spica girls? I thought you liked Amane, Hikari, Yaya and Tsubomi? XD Anyway, onto the actual picture itself, you've really improved with drawing the uniforms!

Negative : For the Lulim uniform, I see that you took reference of Remon's and Kizuna's rather than Kagome's/Chikaru's which is perfectly fine and I love it. However, the colours you used are a bit too light, where as the actual uniforms are of a more red colour. It might just be a lack of resources which is fine, but otherwise, the colours should be darker. You also seemed to miss the stripe around the top area of the white (between the collar) but from what I can gather, you might just be taking your own spin on the outfit. Also, some indication of both breasts would be good, rather than just having one sticking out and the other seemingly none existent. (Sam with the Miator one) It's simplistic little details like that, that enhance the drawing. Otherwise, not much else. As for the Spica one, the shoulders are a bit too broad and masculine. They are also far too large for the body, which is otherwise rather thin and feminine. The collar also seems to be more multicolored than anything but that just might be you taking your spin on things, like I mentioned before. Also, another thing I'm not sure about is how you did the bow, again not like the canon variation but I'm pretty certain you are just giving your own twist on things now. XD Otherwise, not much else. Lastly, the Miator uniform is a bit too lightly shaded rather than the very dark colour it remains. Little details, also, like a bit of errors in the collars and cuffs also, but overall, not much else.

Positives : Firstly, I really like, whether you did this intentionally or not, how you gave each variation a expression that fits the school for the most part. XD You got cheerful Sam dressed in Lulim uniform, more of a serious Sam with attitude in the Spica uniform, and more of a curious and innocent Sam in Miator's uniform. XD It fits the personalities of the school well. For Lulim's uniform, I like how you did the poof of the skirt and the thrills at the bottom, as well as how you curved out the sleeves. The little bow is really cute with the collar, and I like all the creases you added on the sleeves to show bagginess. You did a really nice job on her legs, which look shapely more than anything, and gave her more meat. She's probably my most favourite of this little bunch in the picture. Despite some complaints over the colour, I really like the pinks you choosed and it turned out really cute. You did really well on the feet, too, especially the one that's facing more sideways than forward. It looks really neat. I really like, however, Spica Sam's expression the most. I like how you did the multi-colour collar, too, even if it's not exactly like the original, it looks really pretty though. You did a nice job on the bow, too, and I like how defiant and no-nonsense she looks. The body, other than the arms, turned out pretty good and I like how you made her facing straight forward and staring directly at you. Miator Sam's uniform looks really nice for the most part, which is understandable since you've had some practice with that uniform by now, and I really like how you poofed out her dress and the creases around her waist. I also like how you did her sleeves, especially around the shoulder area, and how her collar sticks out. It looks adorable, along with her precious little expression. XD For some reason, I really like how you did her hand, too, I just like how it's placed on her dress and how hesitant she looks. I also like how you used Nagisa's boots for her, as it fits a lot for her character and looks really nice on her. The consistency of Sam throughout the three pictures is really nice, you can clearly tell it's the same character and you did especially well with keeping her hair the same style and length throughout (though, again, understandable since you've been drawing it for so long). Overall, nice job with the uniforms! I hope to see more SP from you!

Picture I used for critiquing reference : [link] Just in case you used entirely different references. XD

For some reason, the middle one reminds me of that one spoof you did of that commercial once: "I LIFT THINGS UP AND PUT THEM DOWN." xD That was great. And funny.

I have no idea why you look like that Sam. I'm guessing this has to do with whatever Strawberry Panic is.
