FINALLY! The Starlights and their princess, Princess Kakyuu have been redesign and colored. Notes on this piece:
Over all: Wanted to keep a similar feel to their original uniforms, but they were knights, guardians of their princess...so I spiced up their uniforms to be more fantasy knight-like and less BDSM looking.
Maker: wanted to give her a slightly more feminine appearance, I never cared for her and Fighter's hair...it was so hatchety before, I smoothed them out and updated them.
Fighter: Mostly, hair changes like with Maker.
Healer: Always my favorite Starlight, left her alone for the most part.
Kakyuu: To me Kakyuu always looked a lil clownly in the original...but I know Naoko was going for an ancient Chinese feel in her design, so I just lept with it...it was so hard to keep that feel and her original look and still design something new, but I like the end result.
Also before anybody ask...The Starlights are not men, they are women...seems to be confusion on that subject lol

I never understood it and from what I've read the creator Naoko Takeuchi was quite upset with the way the original anime handled a LOT of things with Stars, especially the treatment of the Starlights, since her canon dictated only women could be sailor senshi. I'm not sure if they handled it the way they did because they thought it would be easier to explain or what, though I would think a lady in men's clothing would be far easier to explain than a group that unexplainably changes gender/body shape and size at will. lol
