I know that when people make new persona OCs they usually focus on the humans first and the persona second,, but,, I Am Not Like That, so have a bunch of Detective!Persona to foil the Thief!Persona

(Aka LunaChi uses any excuse to draw cool inhuman designs)

A little background info (because not everyone is as famous as Holmes) can be found under the cut.

Sherlock: part-time navigator until Poirot joins the team. His element is psi and he's got a tv for a face/robot body because Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed by the media and on television so many times that he keeps living on through those mediums.

Maud West: a real person born in 1880 who was known as 'London's Lady Detective'. She mostly investigated divorces and missing person cases and had many disguises. Her element is fire.

Peabody: star of a series of historical mystery novels. She has a quick mind and sharp tongue but is a romantic at heart. She's married to an equal egyptilogist husband, and they live in Egypt and London both. Her element is nuclear and she's a sphinx with wings because of her love of Egypt.

Poirot: one of Agatha Christie's many beloved characters, Poirot is a detective with a magnificent mustache who travels across Europe to solve cases, most famously the Murder on the Orient Express. He abhorrs violence, but his (probable) ocd is a great aid in his case-solving abilities which is why I chose him as a navigator. This Poirot is mostly based on the one in the movies by Branagh because I love those.

Dupin: a character by Edgar Allan Poe. Featured in what is considered the first detective fiction story, before the term 'detective' was coined. He relies on his intellect to solve crimes that interest him, and his appearance as a persona is heavily inspired by Poe's ravens from the poem Nevermore. His element is curse.

Miss Marple: another beloved character of Agatha Christie, an elderly lady who's a detective consultant. Her element is wind, and her design is inspired by the idioms "a sheep in wolf's clothing" and "silk hiding steel" as well as a book I've once read where sheep try to uncover the murder of their farmer, where the main sheep was a homage to Miss Marple

Ganimarde: a police detective often opposing Lupin, so I had to. Though Ganimarde doesn't appear in many of the novels, he's still one of the more recognizable recurring characters, if only because Lupin always outsmarts him in the end. His design is kept similar to Arsene's on purpose, and his element is ice.

Closeau: the detective featured in the Pink Panther franchise, an inept french policeman. Because the eponymous diamond (and later animated pink panther from the series) is more well-known than Closeau, he is a half-panther. His design mostly incorporates elements from the cartoon series, and his element is electro.

#myart #persona 5 #p5 #persona #my writing #oc stuff #designing persona is cool okay #ganimard and miss marple meet for tea #ganimard also feels as if he's not as good a detective as lupin or poirot but miss marple is a good friend #and tells him that he's still the only french force member who can recognize lupin in costume #and that his record outside of lupin heists is pretty good #and closeau cries

Do you remember one of the best episodes from season 3 of 'Avatar: The Last Airbender'? Of course, I'm talking about the Fire Nation students' dance in the cave.

The soundtrack for this episode was also so memorable💃

Katara's costume needed to glisten with all the fiery colors.

You guys wanted to see some photos.

This is what six hours of attaching rhinestones in the company of Hercule Poirot and Issa looks like. And this is what the person who was attaching the rhinestones looks like 😅

Watched Murder On the Nile with my sister and her husband. I told them what my tech and design mentor from college said regarding costume design: “The only people who wear red dresses are bad girls and Asian brides.”

#It’s very effective costume design #Also said on our watch: ‘‘When is a dance not just a dance?’’#Act I (as Poirot puts it): Those two dances were two very different conversations #Especially regarding who was in charge #Also for some additional context: said professor married an Asian woman #who did indeed wear a red wedding dress #I’ve seen the pictures. she was lovely!#Murder On the Nile #movies

Agatha Christie's Poirot costumes [8/?] ↳ Miss Felicity Lemon's green outfit in 3x02 "How Does Your Garden Grow"

"There have been a lot of comments about the wonderful frocks I got to wear. We had a lot of very good costume supervisors and costume designers. Barbara Kronig was one of the original ones. She worked with the late Sheila Buckland who had an incredible store of vintage frocks, most of which I wore in the series. Sheila was very pleased with me because when the frocks were returned she always used to say she couldn't tell it had been worn. Because I really take care of costume, I'm very particular about that. Sheila was meticulous to a degree, she really was, and I've got the most wonderful shoes to wear as well. The production values were extremely high [on the series]." -- Pauline Moran on the costumes she wore as Miss Lemon, Fantom interview, May 2020

This cream-colored coat lined with a green windowpane pattern was first seen in the 1978 film Death on the Nile, where Lois Chiles wore it as Linnet Ridgeway. Interestingly, the jacket was used again in the 2004 production of Death on the Nile from the ninth season of Poirot. It was spotted on Emma Griffiths Malin as Jacqueline De Bellefort, who wore it with a matching sweater. Was the sweater made for the original Death on the Nile and never utilized? Was it made for the 2004 production and matched as closely as possible? If anyone has any further details on this mystery, do let us know.

got this old theatre coat off ebay the other day + have been digging around to find out what production it was used in etc. turns out it’s from the 1980 RSC Richard III, worn by the character of Vaughan !!

i find looking at the cast from that production fascinating + quite endearing: a man who subsequently played poirot for 25 years, lady catherine de bourgh from the bbc p&p, the egyptologist from the mummy, gerald from the full monty and Princess Diana’s Voice Coach, among others

#the poirot is david suchet #this is exciting god* bless the rsc for having such openly available records of their past productions #have never been able to find out with my other old costumes!!#notes section #anthropocene

just saw my local theater’s production of murder on the orient express and. ok i get that they have limited actors and time but. only eight stab wounds?? that’s losing out on one of the main ways to show the theme! and it’s not like they ignored the big themes either, like they clearly took some of the moral ambiguity from the book/suchet version. at least the acting was good.

#i'm underselling it the acting was phenomenal #and they didn't all copy off the finney movie either #no one can ever do accents but at least they were consistent #and the costumes were so pretty <3 <3 <3 #and just the effort to arrange the set so that everything was visible and it felt like a train #A+ gold star no notes #on any of those things; notes on again only eight stab wounds #it's fine if you're not obsessed with poirot and you don't know what you're missing #and actually like. it was probably the right move considering their constraints #but it pains me still #agatha christie #hercule poirot
