1998-ish DIRTY PAIR character designs, pt.2 (Patreon)

NOTE TO PATREON TRUST & SAFETY TEAM: Yuri is this character's name, okay? This post contains no (uncapitalized) "yuri" hentai material and/or "seemingly underage characters in the context of adult entertainment," per the automatic message that pops up every g-d time I mention the character's name.
The notes on the designs seem to suggest that they're for another artist's reference, which might mean that they were part of one of my many, many failed attempts to get someone beside myself approved to draw Dirty Pair (based off my scripting).
