>.<;; Another fine mess I've gotten myself into... I believe this is almost a full cast with some additions from my fan fiction.
I'll whine here: Why oh why do I do this to myself? Yes, this is a work-in-progress. Edit: I added room for Cosmos and Chibichibi... I'm debating whether to add Guardian Cosmos too... --;; Edit: I added (most) of Guardian Cosmos. GAH. Taking too long. I *still* don't have her staff. And doing Sailor Chibichibi (There is no moon in that since you notice this is a *manga* collection of Chibi) I added the Maenad and based their colors on All Charactrs poster in Artbook IV. Any balking at their colors and you'll be sent that link from mangastyle... I moved Kousagi so I can add her Sailors next to her... I'm debating how to make them different from their parent chibi and have decided to try to make them look younger.... (Cheap trip with the lips. --; ) I need Queen Serenity... Shoot me now. I hate doing vectors. People think it's so easy. It ISN'T. What have you been smoking to think that creating vectors in AI is easy. I want it too!! I added the glyphs too. And those glyphs mostly correlate to the real glyphs assigned... I kind of want a complete set of Chibi though... Edit: I added Queen Serenity. The position is from the Materials Collection. It was harder than I thought it would be. You should see the ground work for the Parallel Sailors. And I added the ground work for the inners. I have to redo the SQ and Sailor Chibimoon too... but considering most of the parts are made it shouldn't be *too* difficult after I'm done. The more parts I make, the faster each chibi is made. Edit: Sailor Amphitrite added. (I made her up...) She's a replacement for Sailor Neptune. (In myth she was the wife of Posiedon, I believe.) It's also an asteroid. I believe the glyph isn't official... I stylized a Poseidon version of one. Edit: Added Sailor Chibichibi... that's the after transformation pose from the manga. Edit: Added Pluto and Saturn's key/glaive respectively. I admit, I cheated and did a *little* tracing to achieve it from the material collection and manga references. I shortened Hotaru's glaive because it needed to be made chibi... I also made Saturn's broach and earrings. The colors are referenced off of the official website. Edit: Added Sailor Saturn. You should recognize the position of the character. ^_^ Yes, I stole it from a later one, but it looked better. BTW, I didn't know Manga Saturn's glaive was like a dalek.... Edit: Added the Maenad. Those are the correct colors for them too, 'cause there is a color picture of them in Volume IV in the All Characters Poster. So I'm 100% sure those are the right colors. I referenced Volume 15, Page 41 of the manga for the full length dress. Personally, I think the over part of the dress is supposed to be translucent with sheer fabric, but that doesn't translate into Chibi that well. Edit: Added Sailor Cosmos. Well... I finished her. Edit: Redid Chibimoon, started Coelus. (That's not her real hair design... I still need a hand there... >.<;; Too many left. Edit: Did the rest of Coelus. That's supposed to be a Tang martial arts sword. If the proportions of the hilt to the blade are wrong--tough luck. It's why this is called Chibi... I also did a Hitsuji Chibi (see siggy) One down, 21 to go. Edit: 17 more to go. I redid the SQ except for Ceres, Did the majority of Mars. --;; I still hate vectors. Good to know. I shouldn't mark the middle of an object with a point that looks like a vector point... the center should be notated with something different. I wanted to bash the thing when I thought I had a stray point. Edit: Added Sailor Mars and Parallel Sailor Mars. Yes, that was a stroke of <strike>laziness</strike> genius. I also learned that my original chibi drawings were crappy. She looked nothing like the original... Good thing I didn't post the majority of them. Edit: If you've ever wondered what Venus looks like with short hair, here is a great example. Yeah... Truth is that her hair is complex and I don't feel like doing it right now. Edit: The chibi bred. I swear they did. I added 3 more chibi. Kill me... I also relaid out the picture. It should look better visually now. Edit: I did Sailor Star Maker. Yes, she was there the ENTIRE time. XD. I started the cats, but I'm feeling lazy because I would have to manufacture new clothes for them and I don't feel like it. And Why does Artemis in Chibi form look like Inu Yasha? (And I won't do Inu Yasha.) I'll fix that... Edit: I added Diana. She was a lot of fun to do. I was going to do Healer, but she seemed like a lot more fun to do. Like Takeuchi-sensei, I'd love to see Nishihara-san do a Human Diana Voice. But like Takeuchi-sensei that's probably a dream. But I can write her into my fan fiction anyhow. Edit: I added Sailor Star Healer. This leaves: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, fighter, Sailor Persephone, Sailor Pluto, Sailor Rhea, Sailor Neptune, the rest of Sailor Venus, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Jupiter, The rest of the Artemis, and the other Parallel Senshi. Which are pretty easy if I finish their parents. Edit: Added Sailor Star Fighter. (I still don't like her.) and finished up Venus. GAH. The haaaaaiiiirrr... This leaves: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, Sailor Persephone, Sailor Pluto, Sailor Rhea, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Jupiter, The rest of the Artemis, Parallel Senshi Sailor Jupiter and Mercury. Which are pretty easy if I finish their parents. 11 for me, 13 for you. Edit: Added Artemis and more to Pluto than a floating halo of hair. This leaves: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, Sailor Persephone, the rest of Sailor Pluto, Sailor Rhea, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Jupiter, Parallel Senshi Sailor Jupiter and Mercury. Which are pretty easy if I finish their parents. 10 for me, 12 for you. Edit: Added some ground work. ^_^ Part of Sailor Mercury is up. Starts for Sailor Rhea and Sailor Persephone are up too. Yay for floating heads. And Pluto/Luna get to be floating heads too. Luna got some lips though. Edit: Added the rest of Sailor Pluto. --;; Somehow all the hard work I did on her belt has turned into red blobs. And I modeled each key too. I finished Sailor Rhea and Sailor Persephone too. 7 for me 9 for you. Remaining: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, redo Sailor Ceres, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Jupiter, Parallel Senshi Sailor Jupiter and Mercury. Which are pretty easy if I finish their parents. Edit: Added basic ground work for Sailor Jupiter. The design should now be working symbolically too now. It looks like a cut onion on a rectangular plate. Edit: Added Sailor Jupiter and Parallel Sailorjupiter. Remaining: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, redo Sailor Ceres, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Uranus, Parallel Sailor Mercury. 6 for me, 7 for you. Edit: Added Sailor Mercury and Parallel Sailormercury. I fixed Parallel Sailor Jupiter. Remaining: Guardian Cosmos, the rest of Luna, redo Sailor Ceres, Sailor Neptune, Sailor Uranus. 5 left. (Though for me Ceres is a copy of Neptune.... so 4 for me...) Edit: Ground work for Neptune, and fixed Endymion... Edit: Bastard... Neptune's arms will be difficult to do. *sighs* Oh and I had to fudge with her hair because the anime length of hair is not manga length of hair... But the position should be the same. (You should notice that with the others too have "after transforming" pose...) Edit: I did Sailor Uranus... and improved Queen Serenity who was bugging me. This leaves: The rest of Luna, the rest of Neptune, Sailor Ceres redo and Guardian Cosmos. That's 4 isn't it? Then I'll do the last minute refining... Edit: Finished Neptune... Remaining: the rest of Luna, Sailor Ceres redo, and Guardian Cosmos. When I close my eyes I see vectors. Gah. Edit: Redid Ceres. Remaining: the rest of Luna and Guardian Cosmos. 2 left. The end is in sight. >.<;; Edit: I still need Luna's shoes... Some base work for Guardian Cosmos. Edit: Added the rest of Luna. Yay. And surprise.... One chibi left to go. Edit: Added the ground work for Guardian Cosmos. >.<;; Welcome to chibi hell. Beads... damned beads. Kill me. Edit: Added more to Guardian Cosmos. The blue lines are guidelines I have to put the beads on. --;; Even with reflect it's a pain the butt... Does anyone really put all those beads? And she's white and gray-eyed because the maenad had similar coloring and so did Queen Serenity... so I figure her eyes are gray and her dress is white. Kill me. The dress... I'm going to watch a drama instead. Also to Amai-cha I know... Vampire Zombie cat.... Yes, mam. *salutes* --; And yes, 'mam, I'm half way through the chapter... <-- won't make sense to anyone else. No one else will find this funny, but my computer gave me the Page of Wands just now. Edit: NOT FINISHED. I finished off the Guardian Cosmos Chibi. Uhhhggghhh.. so many beads. I still have to do the red outline, the hair highlights and then add the blue outline... Edit: NOT FINISHED. Red outline on first row finished, most of second row done except for Chibichibi... BED time... Edit: NOT FINISHED. Third row of red lines and added touches... People should be getting closer to a sense of my vision for this. Eating time. Edit: Any additional edits that I would do would be invisible to you... so I declare FINISHED. >.<;; Truth is that I don't want to do more vectors, so I cheated and used Photoshop for the rest of the red outlines. I'm sure Takeuchi-sensei and her lazy ways would approve... Hey, now you can truly see the boot laces on Saturn's boots which have been there the entire time... SLEEP. Character list: First row starting left.: Tuxedo Mask Kinno Hitsuji Sailor Moon Second row: Sailor Cosmos Queen Selenity Guardian Cosmos Sailor Chibichibi (since this is manga there is no moon.) left most column: Diana (Human form) Sailor Saturn Sailor Pluto Sailor Neptune Sailor Uranus Maenad right column: Luna Sailor Venus Sailor Mars Sailor Mercury Sailor Jupiter Artemis second to bottom row: Parallel Sailor Venus Parallel Sailor Mars Kousagi Parallel Sailor Mercury Parallel Sailor Jupiter bottom row: Parallel Sailor Saturn Parallel Sailor Pluto Parallel Sailor Neptune Parallel Sailor Uranus clockwise on the inside: Neo Queen Selenity Sailor Star Fighter Sailor Star Healer Sailor Star Maker Sailor Kakyuu King Endymion Circle, clockwise: Sailor Chibimoon Sailor Ceres Sailor Vesta Sailor Pallas Sailor Juno Sailor Coelus (takes the place of Uranus) Sailor Amphitrite (takes the place of Neptune) Sailor Rhea (takes the place of Pluto) Sailor Persephone (takes the place of Saturn) Center: Sailor Chisaii Moon (Daughter of King Elios and Queen Lady Selenity from the future) Resources: - Artbooks 1-5. (The Maenad in color are there. YES they are.) - Manga Volume 15 (where I got Luna's shoes in microscopic size), Volume 18, volume 17. - Stock exchange for the pretty background. ( [link] ) - The anime for the majority of the Senshi poses. The manga-based ones are either from the artbooks or from first appearances. - Materials Collection. Figure references. - Astrology and asteroid websites for the glyphs. Also Symbol.com. - The hair color on Kousagi is from an official color picture I got from The Sailor Senshi Page Jackie Chiang's website. - The official Sailor Moon website in japanese I used to get the majority of the colors. (Luna's hair color is from there... for some odd reason it looked bad in black... so I went with Sailor Luna's coloring.) - random mythology... for Persephone, Rhea, Coelus, and Amphitrite... It's important to research. ^_^ BTW, Shibue's transformation, I watched it three times... I wish Tuxie would get a real henshin though.. I'd imagine one for my incarnation, Tuxedo Yume. Edit: Uhh... Changed Kousagi and Chiisaimoon... |

You are shaped by your experiences and the people you know; still, it is what you *do* with these tools that define you.
Yay for next next generation senshi! XD
