More of Holo und Panzer crossovers that no one very little people asked for! Tried something different here since I didn't just wanna copy Katyusha's outfit; I sort of redesigned her outfit to emulate Soviet Marines of the WWII-era by giving her the proper cap and blue tanker fatigues. Since not even The Saga of Pravda spin-off manga has revealed what the sailor uniform of the Pravda Naval Studies Department really looks like, I took the liberty of illustrating a custom uniform for Gura, since in the 'backstory' of this crossover, Gura is a Pravda student sailor who took an interest in tankery.
No tank drawing to go with it this time since I felt it detracts from the whole image itself, like the Amelia one. Too bad most of the amphibious tanks the Soviet Union had at the time were all doo doo so she'll probably use a standard tank, but I will promise hers will be just as smol. On that topic of the actual tanks I'd envision the EN cast to be using, I'd probably make another set of images relating to that kinda like my previous RWBY series, but that project isn't set in stone yet.
Fluent Russian speakers may open fire on me on all cylinders, since the cap's inscription is pretty much Google Translate. Tried to get as close to the original Soviet cap inscriptions but replacing the last word with the closest meaning to "Naval Studies" (RU translated: Navy Research?).
