Ranma looks great, I wonder if Katherine Janeway would be Jealous.


I agree. Ranko looks ready to kick some Klingon (I could have chosen any other race, I'm not a racist ^_^) a**
And that's the bottom line 'cause Dumbledork said so.

Janeway was middle-aged, and a bit too stuffy and dignified for her own good. I seriously doubt that she'd do more than glance at a uniform like that and think, "Oh, no. No way they're getting me into that."

Judging from the "Trials and Tibble-ations" episode of DS9 Jadzia Dax might go for it.

I went back to the Hero Builder 2.0 page and made a Fem version of the character I'm thinking of using as my main self in Spamville and am wondering how she would look in a Sciences Lieutenant Fuku.

Kinda wish they had more options for the ears though the hair hides these ones and all the other ones that go on top of the head are too long.

Looks great, I hope the clothing choice helped. Now I wonder if anyone else will suggest uniforms to cross because you have got the Trek TOS style varriant nailed.

Sure I will.

An Imperial Officers Uniform. (Star Wars, The Empire)

Mostly because there isn't a skirted version.

Or a HighGuard officers Uniform. (Andromeda)
Naval Warrior Lord/Lady of Io.
Schizotechnician.
Thermonuclear Firebug.

That site may help with the High Guard Uniforms. I'm not sure about their StarWars collection though.

Sailor Sith? Sailor Death Star? Sailor Imperia? a different title?

Given that imperial officer uniforms are double-breasted, that element and the other ornaments should be included.

Rank plaque and cylinder:

Belt buckle:

Whole body:

Looking at the linked pictures, you see that the front panel of the uniform coat is divided into three sections, with the lines narrowing toward the waist. An easy element to add to the fuku design. The little pockets for the rank cylinders is also easy. The belt should be less three-dimensional; more a belt than a part of the dress. The buckle is rectangular with the round three raised disks seen in the second picture.

The design on the emblems for the headdress should be the raised disk design used on the cap and belt buckle. Hmm. Wonder if a visor wouldn't be a good thing for it to have, too?

The only difficult thing is what to do with the rank plaque. Perhaps as shoulder boards?

It looks good but it doesn't seem too Imperial other than being Grey. Maybe a larger buckle and some utility pouches on the belt. Also didn't all the Imperial Uniforms have the armpit pockets?

This is very crude and quickly done, so it needs work, but here is a take on your design to show you some possibilities that might make it look more imperial:

Unfortunately I can't see your image at the moment.(error 505 timeout) >.<


However, I've added some of your suggestions:

You got most of it. The only other thing I did, really, was to replace the area of skin with more of the gray material and a standup collar. The idea was that the uniform has the sailor flap as a scarf overlaying a tunic with the collar from the imperial uniform. Not as sexy, but it definitely says "I'm an imperial stormtrooper. Deal with it." The other thing I did was replace your buckle with a larger one that looks more like the ones from the pictures.

Yeah, that rank plaque doesn't seem to have anyplace it can fit very well, does it?

J. St.C. Patrick I like the seccond one but I still feel the belt is a bit off. I know Senshi are allot more fashionable than the Empire but even if you don't bulk it up there should be at least 2 equipment pouches to the sides of the buckles. It was almost an unwritten theme in StarWars I mean everyone had storage on their belt at one point in the series.
