Who's game?

I may have to give it a go... (I do steampunk-ish art for fun and sometimes profit. XDDD)

[brennalarosa]

Sure! Everybody's welcome!

This was a difficult contest to judge. The only reason it's gone so quickly is because there were only four submissions, three of which were for the protagonists. But, after hard thought and deliberation, here are the results!

For the protagonists:

Pixie!



Thank you, Kol and Eph for trying out! They were adorable and your fuku may very well show up still, if you look closely!

For the antagonists:

Ephiel, by default!

Thanks to everybody who submitted and you should see the extra fuku easter eggs within the first three episodes!

LOVE it, Pix! Way better than anything I could have come up with! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

I'm going to give my picture a once over this afternoon to see if I can't make it look prettier. DX

*squee!* Yay! I will redraw the design so it's cleaner and more legible and therefore more useful. ^_____^ Thank you! <3333

(Now I can design Ida's dress more butch and manly version...)

Executive decision about the goggles!

The goggle lenses must be your primary color. This will be important to plot later.

So noted! ^_____^

My brain has been full of Coppelias for two days now, so much that some of it has leaked onto paper.  First, I thought it would be appropo for the Iron Angels to have their henshin lockets and/or badges or what-have-you to be cog-shaped: 
  or at least embossed with a gear.  The anchor thing is supposed to be from the Arcadian flag; I'm totally guessing as to configuration.

Then, I started drawing fukus:
               

If none of these are any good for Iron Angels, they're up for grabs for anything else; I'm going to keep drawing when I can....

Edit:  No. 2 has a navel because it's a handy spot to plug things in, for whatever reason.  X3

I vote number 1 or number 3 although number 1 looks very similar to the other Senshi designs.  Actually, can I just vote number 3?  That mini skirt and bodice combo is HOT and you are HOT and everything now about the Coppelias is HOT.  YAY!  And I absolutely adore the locket.  I do, I do, I do.  Could you use one of these Brenna?  Pleeeaaaase?

[brennalarosa]

3 looks close enough to Eph's original design and sufficiently diesel-pulp-noir, it has my vote!

[Edgewise]

But wait, there's more!  Working from pencil skirts & bustiers (can you tell I love those shoes?):

                   

Looks like the designs are starting to narrow down.  Shading here is strictly for the purposes of telling apart the cloth bits.  One and two are backless, but number one has a choker-collar bolero--number three has a regular shirt.  Do let me know what you like.  :3

3 is my favorite. While I love the 50's "boob petals", number 3 looks like a military uniform.
