First design from my Pasukan Cantik Penjaga Bulan (as opposed to PCSM) submission to the new ToT project . Aiming to answer the question "What if the entire series had taken place somewhere other than Japan?" I decided to base my alternate group in Indonesia.
My thinking for the costume was that since Naoko Takeuchi's sailor fuku were based off the iconic school uniform in Japan, a series from another country would use a different uniform as its starting point. The two most common girls' uniforms in Indonesia aren't that exciting though, so I maintained the boots and gloves (even though only a maniac would be wearing gloves in that climate...)
In the next designs I want to emphasise the collar more because they are still essentially Sailor Senshi, no matter what their title. The way the two colours are worked into the uniform might have to change for some of them - Neptune looks kinda puky at the moment.
This is Ami's counterpart Susi, also known as Penjaga Utarid/Merkurius (still can't decide).
In scraps because of a shonky first attempt at using the Pen tool over an image from the awesome SenshiStock!

Lho, all of those artist's comments for one scrap!

Thankies! Now that it's the holidays, I can spend my time planning up all my new ideas instead of studying.
