Shanghai Revue Uniform
🕑 Added 2023-01-29 01:29:19 +0000 UTCNeed to pick up some slack. Will be doing more soon hopefully.
In the meantime, here are some small drawings of the uniform front and back.
The mask and goggles mostly came about 'cause I thought it'd fit with my idea as proposed in my Wu Shuang drawing previously that the uniforms of the Shanghai Team is essentially made to a bit more protective (the jacket is more of a body-armor for example) and contain more redundant bits than other teams usually have, 'cause they wanted to be Extra careful as the first official anti-demon mech team for Republic of China. Kinda like those WW1 experimental armors. Plus it'd look cool, duh.
Also I'm thinking of finally settling their team name as "山河歌舞团" or (lit.) "Mountain and River Song and Dance Troupe". Since all the characters' names are meant to reference either mountains or rivers, "山河" itself being another term for the natural world, and also as a reference to Li Jinghui’s “Chinese Song and Dance Troupe and Wei Yingbo’s "Plum Blossom Troupe" of the 1920s-40s, which were some of the earliest more western-influenced musical theatres as well as popular music in China.
