-basketball uniforms didn’t really change much except for the length + fit. Women’s basketball uniforms tend to be a little tighter up top and shorter on the bottom (I gave Murasakibara boys’ shorts though, bc I imagine she has trouble finding women’s clothing in her size in Japan).
-I imagined they’d all have hairstyles that they can easily wear for both school or practice (so either their hair is relatively short or they often keep it in a style that won’t get in their way when playing basketball, i.e. braids, like in Kagami and Midorima’s case). It was kind of a struggle not to just give them all a pony tail, tbh...
-Seirin, Kaijo, and to a lesser extent, Touou are the only schools that have canon girls’ school uniforms (we see these bc of the girls who flock to Kise in Seirin and Kaijo + we can sorta guess what Momoi’s full uniform looks like). For everyone else, I sort of just gave them what I imagined to be the female version of the male one. Rakuzan + Yosen both have Western style school uniforms, so they were easy to figure out for me in terms of translating it into a girls’ look, but I had a little trouble with Midorima. I ended up going for something more traditional-looking, to match the male uniform design we see him wearing in the anime.
-To convert the heights, I used Kuroko’s height as a reference. He’s stated to be average height for a Japanese, 16 year old male (170.7 cm/5′6′’). The average height for a female of that same age and demographic is 157.8cm (5'1”). So, I took the difference between those two numbers, 12.9 cm, and subtracted it from everyone’s canon male heights. Like I said, I rounded in some instances so it may be off by a couple millimetres/inches, but I think I got pretty close to what I wanted. (I also deeply desire to draw male Kuroko with the other ladies bc everyone, besides fem!akashi + fem!kuroko, is still taller than him asfgkl).
