I was involved in Sakura Exchange last month, and creators were revealed today, so I can post this! This was actually a pinch hit, but man, I was glad to draw baby’s first lesbians.
I think about Hotaru having been cybernetic and the idea of that carrying over to Sailor Saturn often. It didn’t, because Hotaru’s life is complicated, but I still imagine cyborg senshi from time to time.
Something about Hotaru having been just an experiment for her father and then turning into the Soldier of Silence and Revolution resonates with me. I was also an object and irrelevant as a human being to my dad, and I also would like to wield a giant blade and bring about The End, so, you know, good times.
The last two pages in my sketchbook are Sailor Saturn.
