When last we left our heroes, they were channeling the spirits of the Moon Princess and her friends. This week, we return to the world of Sailor Moon. Click to embiggen the pictures.
First up, is Red Rich as Tuxedo Kamen. Who else to dress up in all that finery?
Next, how about Sass as Sailor Jupiter (my personal favorite of the Sailor Senshi)? Sass is the character I least had to cheat with the proportions.
Moving right along, we have Zoë as Sailor Venus. I chose a picture from later in the series for Sailor Venus after the senshi costumes were slightly revamped, so Zoë’s look is a little different from the others.
Usually when I pick a theme, there’s a lack of female characters to choose from and the girls have to play male roles. This time, there weren’t enough male roles (amongst the main cast anyway). Two male characters would end up losing the lottery and have to dress up as senshis. The first is Todrick, who doesn’t seem too happy about playing Sailor Mercury. He’s had practice dressing up as a girl before though.
The second was previewed on Facebook, so it should be no surprise to see Barnaby as Chibi-Usa. At first, I wasn’t going to do Chibi-Usa. I only wanted one boy dressed as a girl so Barnaby was going to be Helios, but I decided that was too obscure a character (I had to dig around to find him). Then I contemplated leaving Barnaby out completely. Finally, I decided it wouldn’t be so bad to have Barnaby dressed up as a girl too. He’s also done it before. It also works on a level that the bears play Sailor Moon and Chibi Usa and that it’s the big bear who’s dressed up as “Mini” Moon.
Anyhoo, that’s it for this week. Come back next week for the start of a new theme.
