Russia Uniform Morphing? *sob*

[cantabrasil03.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone,

 

I was wondering if anyone could clarify for me what uniform Russia is wearing in this art (the red and black coat at the end of this entry), if this was ever done by Himaruya or if it's purely fanart, etc. I originally thought it was his 1905 uniform but when I compared the strip it's completely different.

Also, where does everyone get the color scheme idea for Russia's Bloody Sunday coat? Why the navy/cream? Is that historical, fanon, or Himaruya?

Thank you all!
