Lucky Star/KNT crossover

[Violet]

Not sure if this should go under fan works or merchandise.  A Japanese artist, Itamaru-san, is selling fan art of Lucky Star characters Konata, Kagami, and Tsukasa dressed up as Usa Hime, Pururun and Otama.

The auction also includes Miyuki as Omitsu, but there's no picture.

if I'm not mistaken then that show is pretty popular, maybe it can be used as commercials for spc/knt!

Cute, and very nice color work, too. Thanks for sharing this, I don't check mbok too often so I might have not seen it otherwise.

I found missing picture of the girl dressing as Omitsu. It depicts KNT cosplay of the four girls, according to the product description.

Reading the user profile I got an impression that Itamaru isn't a person, but a group of amateur artists. Moreover, who claims to be the author of this picture is "Maochi".

I never have watched or read Lucky Star, but there is a mention to Kagami ("Kagamin") in the Tenko's work at web page of Hobby Shop Section9.

Lucky Star is very popular.  The characters' personalities are actually pretty good matches for the KNT characters they are depicted as, except Miyuki doesn't normally blow up.
This auction seems to be going well, it's at 2000 yen, compared to 520-820 yen on their other auctions.
