4 styles of bondage maids

i love designing maid outfits ^ ^ hell, forget the bondage, i'm happy just working out where i can add bows and frills! anyway, as i said in the sketch version of this, there are three people i really draw inspiration from when drawing maids, so i thought i'd try drawing an outfit in the style of each of them (plus my own!). doing justice to their drawing and colouring styles would be beyond me, so i've just tried to capture the essence of their outfits and restraints!

from left to right:
heartgear is a really big influence on my maid designs, even though she doesn't draw that many. the outfit here is a homage to material girl: allegory, which is one of the sweetest, simplest designs out there, which i take as a sort of guiding light for the essence of my designs. and the hand wraps are because i am cruel and like to keep jokes running
look! iss kate! and she's totally responsible for that tape wrapping on the hands
i first learnt to construct maid outfits by looking at reed's work, and his decorative trims (and heavy chains) have had a strong influence on my art for years. you can really see this if you look at some of the really old pics i posted from the pre-caregan era, which blatantly ripped off his costume designs! (like this one)
of the four of us, reed's costumes are more likely to veer away from traditional black to pinks, so i thought i'd take the opportunity to pink it up here. also, that's a lot of gold she's wearing ^ ^
nomad has to be the undisputed king of maidification on dA! even though i'd say his overall costume designs are the most different from mine, i've taken a lot of inspiration from how he uses lace trimmings and his total genius in devising really tight and secure bindings... and then expecting you to work in them! ^ ^
something i tried to imitate here is the mirror finish on autotape - it gives it such an air of indestructibility! i should probably have made mine more blue, though...

so whaddya think? did i do an ok job imitating them?
