Something Different




There haven't been any posts in a while, despite (or perhaps because of?) the excitement surrounding the US re-release of the Sailormoon manga (not to mention the first US release of Codename: Sailor V!). Regardless, my last couple posts have been about rather meticulous & detailed illustrations...so I thought perhaps this time I'd take it back old-school with some fun stick figures!

I particularly like the first one, because I've always loved how Sailormoon has always possessed an equal balance between drama & romance and humour. Nothing like a good shot of Usagi cracking up.

Re-Imagining

So excited to post these images! I drew them the other night.

Queen Beryl:

Emerald:
Mistress 9:
This is an alternative drawing style that is one of my absolute favourites to use. I get really inspired by re-imagined versions of classic characters, so both the vintage aesthetic that a few people here use, as well a lot of the other stylizations, are some of the fan artwork that I like best. I appreciate when people do skillful fan art in the anime/manga style, but I like it best when illustrators employ their own unique hand to bring a whole new perspective to these familiar characters.

(***I totally get that they look a little drag-queen-ish, but I think it gives them some extra personality. :P )

First Post!





Hi everyone - so excited that this forum exists to share our unique Sailormoon doodles and whatnot. All work I will be posting is my own, although you will see that I have various drawing styles. Enjoy!

The first is a really glamourous Sailormars I drew a few years ago. The second is just a quick pencil sketch I did the other week. My representations tend to be more in the style of fashion illustration, because that's the industry I work in.
