Robotics;Notes has a fabulous cast of characters, I'm tossing up between Akiho and Frau. * [[http://roboticsnotes.tv/| Official anime website]] * [[http://roboticsnotes.tv/character/#chara_2| Akiho profile]] * [[http://roboticsnotes.tv/character/#chara_4| Frau profile]] Yumi has also suggested Misaki-nee as a possibility. <> = References = * http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1288648/ * http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1288649/ * http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1304763/ * http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1318287/ * Frau: http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/index?tags=koujiro_frau * Official art: http://danbooru.donmai.us/post?tags=robotics%3Bnotes+official_art = Components = I've got less than a week to do this thing, and I've basically not even started. Damn. == Wig == Whether I choose Akiho or Frau, both styles are kinda tough. Akiho will need a long brown wig, with bits braided around the sides, with a big up-do at the back (hair ties). Frau will need a long blonde wig (waist length), with hellacious amounts of hairspray and some black ribbons for ties. Expecting to procure on site at this rate. == Glasses == Take the red Nike glasses if I do Akiho. http://shortgirls.net/DSBFUS == Blouse == Fairly standard sort of sailor uniform. * Big collar * Short sleeves * Sleeves turned up at the end * Teal/dark blue edging detail on collar, modesty panel and turned-up sleeves * Big bright blue bow on the front, just under the collar * Summer uniform, so it's a tiny bit short * Made from a number of panels, the seam lines are interesting placed Some official reference art: http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1304763/ Got some [[attachment:tanegashima_blouse_material.jpg| material]] for the blouse so far. == Skirt == Basic pleated skirt. * Lots of fine knife pleats * Same teal/blue colour as the detail on the blouse * Lengthwise, it looks like it sits... fairly high up near the waist, and reaches maybe halfway to the knees == Pokecom belt == The belt is an integral part of Akiho's outfit, and not for Frau. * Pouch, tan/brown in colour * Belt, colour matches the pouch, maybe an inch wide with standard punched holes * Little Egyptian cat thing (some [[http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1286050/| detail]] is visible == Pokecom == Look at borrowing a Nexus 7 or Note2. Plenty of opportunity for cool AR photos with this. == Socks == Darker than the uniform teal, navy blue, reaching to just below the knees. == Shoes == Plain black loafers, already have some. = Photos ideas = * AR change-of-clothes: seifuku to maid * Find some overgrown runways * Those red glasses * Nice white parasol (Frau) * Akiba (Frau) * BL and Pocky and generally slovenly (Frau) * Sillyness (Frau): http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/1264925/ * Skal (the drink) * Little rockets? Fireworks? * Hobby robot of some sort
