Transparent backround. Full View. 'Nuff said. For a look at what she looks like naked (...for the body patterns, you pervs!), go here: [link]

Momoiro Rosado* the Chilean Flamingo, better known to her friends and fans simply as "Moe". She may be the only permanent female member of Crush On Phoenix (not counting dancers and backup voices and whatnot), but she's arguably the band's most essencial part of the team. Aside from working the keyboards on stage, she's the one in charge of editing and mixing recordings. Her specialty, however, would be working the lighting department; before she joined the band, she was originally hired by Houyoku([link]) to be a lighting consultant after having seen what an excellent job she and her family did of setting up some surprise 'afternoon fireworks during last year's spring festival (she hasn't the heart to point out that they weren't supposed to go off so early, especially since she's still embarassed about that little incident that ended up wasting all the recently-bought gunpowder in a matter of minutes!). Moe eventually mentions she practiced the piano when she was younger as the topic of the band's future is brought up, which in turn makes Hou insist she try out working a keyboard and become a member of his band, and has been there ever since.

Crush on Phoenix, by the way, is supposed to be a sort of J-Rock band (the equivalent, anyway), hence the overly pretty designs for all of the band members (Moe, for being the only one who I used actual visual kei images for costume reference, is arguably the most 'normal' looking of the bunch). The non-permanent costume she has on is new, though the goggles have been part of her design since day one.


*By all technicalities she's only half-Japanese, hence the last name being true to her South American roots. The thing that bugs me, though, is that, technically? There's no such thing as Japan or Chile in their world (not the ones we're familiar with, anyway). I'll give the geographical details some more thought after I get some sleep. What was I thinking doing two pic projects in a row...?

That is definitely one helluva character design. Great job.

. . . though her outfit reminds me vaguely of the airborne pooftah skit from Monty Python.

Are they? I know the Australian variants are (or so that's what wiki told me).

Then again, nothing wrong with her secretly being the last of a supposedly-dead race...sir, I believe you've given me an idea. Thanks!

Link me to a pic of this, dangit!

Also, I think I saw Courtney love wearing something like this once (though without the pins and the khakis). I mentioned I based her off an actual person's clothes (well, design-wise, not color-wise), but heck if I can remember who. Malice Mizer she *ain't*, that's all I know.

Thanks! She was arguably a bit easier to color than the others (she's a PINK flamingo, there's not much to her in terms of colors!), but still a challenge in her own right :D
