Dichotomy:Any splitting of a whole into exactly two non-overlapping parts. In other words, it is a partition of a whole (or a set) into two parts (subsets) that are:
* mutually exclusive : nothing can belong simultaneously to both parts, and
* jointly exhaustive : everything must belong to one part or the other.
Dichotomy is also a method of execution wherein the victim is cut in two.
So, thanks to ~AnarchicQ , my "SailorGemini" (who was originally created for =DracheaRannak 's "Sailor Zodiac" contest awhile back) has received a new name (much to the chagrin of those who voted against the name change in the poll I made a couple of months ago) as well as some tweaks to her original design. I matured her physical appearance a little, made her hair a bit longer, tweaked the symbol placement on her mask (as well as the symbol itself. It now resembles the Gemini symbol with a vertical line running down the middle) and changed the leg band on her right (our left) leg. Isn't it funny how just a few tweaks can drastically change something's appearance?
As I worked on this piece, *girl-withagun critiqued me, making suggestions as well as showed me a few spiffy tricks in PhotoShop which I will most definently use when working on future pieces. I'm trying to practice more consistent lighting on my works.
Despite the name change, SailorDichotomy is still pretty much the same Sailor Senshi (Soldier/Warrior.Guardian), with the same sick and twisted backstory, personality, and abilities. She just has a new name now...and some design tweaks. Now onto her profile!
Civilian Name: Serena Renata (Castor) and Furiosa Renata (Pollux) ("Serenity Reborn/ Fury Reborn")
Sailor Senshi Name: SailorDichotomy
Title: Soldier of Demise

Birthstone: Aquamarine
Colours: Blue and Green
Weapon (s): "Pendulum Blades" on each arm
Technique(s): "Siamese Dream" - Pollux seperates from Castor and, while mirroring one another's moves precisely, the two proceed to tear the enemy apart. (Think Morrigan's "Astral Vision" move from Darkstalkers 3)

Thank you. She's actually a redo of my old 'SailorGemini' entry from =DracheaRannak 's "Sailor Zodiac contest from awhile back.

Wow. I would be HONOURED if you drew her in your style. Seriously. This design is a BIG improvement over the previous 'SaioorGemini' incarnation.

I love her hair! She sort of looks like a more grown version of Gemini, I like them both! The symbol on the mask in this version looks cooler, although it was easier to tell what it is in the old version. The fuku is as always great, and I'm glad she kept her boots! I love your boots (although they look really painful to wear )!

HotaruThodt In reply to elila [2009-07-21 09:42:23 +0000 UTC]
Heehe, thank you! I didn't really like the placement of the old mask symbol, so I changed it *is a suck for various forms of eye decoration*, and I HAD to keep the boots. I think my boot designs are beomcing a trademark in my art...or at least my Otaku Senshi.

elila In reply to HotaruThodt [2009-07-21 09:45:16 +0000 UTC]
The old placement did have a sort of "comical" feel to it, this version is much more "creepy"! And yes, I do believe they are! Go boots!

HotaruThodt In reply to elila [2009-07-21 09:46:58 +0000 UTC]
Yay! I was definently going for more creepy here and perhaps a bit darker (since Serena-Furiosa is a very dark character, just check out her themsongs).
The next senshi I'll be submitting will be "SailorPhantasm".

elila In reply to HotaruThodt [2009-07-21 09:51:21 +0000 UTC]
Well, you succeed! Gemini seems more and more like the teenage Dichotomy, not fully grown up and all out scary. I'll definitely be looking forward to SailorPhantasm! Sounds delicious!

HotaruThodt In reply to elila [2009-07-21 10:04:22 +0000 UTC]
Hmmm...I never thought of it that way really. That's a really good theory.
And SailorPhantasm is inspired by another horro franchise. I might post her in the next day or so.

Thank you so much. I'm actually making some senshi for Mine and ~AnarchicQ 's group of 'Evil/Insane Senshi' and then my own group of senshi who oppose said group. ^_^
