This hard to find work was shared back in May 4th, 1999, as a volume of character designs that were planned for Princess Maker 4.

Though planned as the first in a series, there were no other "character design" pamphlets made after this. Later works chose to focus on an urban Tokyo setting with art of the star child "Karen", who was to be the featured princess of this game.

Three more designs of Karen with fantasy elements were provided in the following month's doujin pamphlet on June 27th, given the overlong title of 『プリンセスメーカー 4 娘さん、デザイン中 ●カレンちゃん写真集 スタンバイ中だ号』.

Loosely translated, that title means something close to "Princess Maker 4: Daughter in Progress — Karen Photo Book Standby Issue". These were mixed among a larger mass of Karen sketches with her donning urban wear and bikinis.

The fantasy designs are reproduced below.
