There's definitely art like that running around, 563238 on Danbooru for example (not linking because it's mildly NSFW)

This is a result of one of the genius things ZUN has done that makes the series so memorable- for all that he can't draw very well, he's extremely talented at designing characters. Everyone is very cute, but also very unique- Flandre isn't even the only red-eyed blonde with red hair decorations in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, but you can still distinguish her from Rumia just by her decorations.
