Renaissance Paper Doll Gowns for Marisole Monday

logo-noble-lady-colorI must have colored and re-colored today’s Marisole Monday & Friends paper doll set, a dozen times before I settled on this sort of dusty teal, cream and rose color scheme. Seriously, sometimes paper doll coloring is really quite frustrating.

I do love the way the paper dolls look when they are colored and I like choosing colors and playing with color schemes. I don’t think I could ever switch to just black and white.

I really wanted to do a sort of classic princess/fantasy look with this set. I don’t generally draw thinking about children, but sometimes after I’ve done some of my stranger paper dolls (like the dark circus paper doll I’m working on), I find I want to also do things that are strictly for kids.

Of course, I also stand by my rule that if you don’t think one of my paper dolls should be given to a child, than don’t give it to a child.

The next things down the pike are going to be a historical poppet set later this week and then a Marisole circus set and then I’m honestly not sure… Flock need some love and so that might be the next thing to work.

  1. This set is making me wish I liked wearing dresses more.

    And maybe for Flock you could do post-apocolyptic or maybe classic movies.

    • The next Flock set will be Noir Punk styled, as that is what I have scanned or my next Fairy Tale set (one or the other), after that I have some long neglected fantasy Flock sets that I drew last year and never finished. I do really like the post-apocolyptic idea, as well.

  2. They’re so pretty! I can definitely imagine Marisole in a tower waiting to be rescued, or by a pond preparing to kiss a frog, while wearing these lovely, romantic dresses.
