Today Marisole printable paper doll is going cybergoth since there’s just not enough neon and shiny in Marisole’s eclectic paper wardrobe. This is the first new Marisole in a depressingly long time… I confess I spent time I probably should have spent revising a paper on this, but after five hours in the library my mind is pretty much non-functional anyway. And it’s nice to come home to paper doll coloring as a relaxing project to work on.

Now, I did recently get my hands on Gothic: Dark Glamour by Valerie Steele. While I normally I like Steele’s work, I was a bit disappointed by this book. It didn’t have the lavish pictures I have come to want in any costume book I buy. Still, it did have a fairly nice description of cyber-gothic and helped me narrow things down to black with neon accents. The hair was the hardest part of this paper doll, but I am actually quite pleased at how it came out. The other piece I am most proud of is the shiny black corset. Shiny fabrics are something I am still practicing and I am totally excited at how perfect the corset turned out to be. It’s rare that I really feel like I’ve achieved what I wanted with texture. Texture is hard.
So, I’ve done a dark steampunk paper doll over the years, a gothic Lolita one and one punk paper doll, but I don’t think I’ve ever really done a traditional gothic paper doll unless you count my vampire paper doll in 2010. I wonder if I should? What do other people think?
I would love to see a Gothic Marisol or Pixie.
Gothic would be fun =)
But then, most of the stuffs you come up with is fun. I never woulda thought of cybergoth paperdoll, but this is so cool. Those furry pink boots rock btw =)
I love this! And I would be happy if you made a gothic Marisole!
I’m glad you like the furry boots. I was a bit unsure about them, but they seemed pretty standard during my cybergoth research, so I thought I should include them.
make a traditional gothic Marisole. between you and her, she could totally pull it off and rock it.
Talk about wild…those colors is crazy!
I think you did a great job on the hair. I’m also digging her tattoo and nose ring. Very neat doll all around.
The hair is so cool. Love the neon!
