Artist's commentary
SM: Outer Princesses
I have worked on it for a long time. Such detalization makes me tired but I like the result. Characters are drawn in a similarity to the ancient style surrounded by their elements. Clothes of Princess Pluto symbolize refinement and maturity, clothes of Princess Uranus – strength and militancy (btw, she looks like woman warrior of Amazons, who was never interested in guys), clothes of Princess Neptune – tenderness and exquisiteness.
I apologize, the following text is difficult to translate
A small footnote: Pluto, according to Greek and Roman mythology, is the god of the afterlife, the guardian of the souls of the dead. However, Sailor Pluto is also the guardian of the gates of time. I tried to combine these points a bit, depicting a gloomy background, glowing souls (lumps of energy), but referring to the "wisdom of time".
