So, today’s pair of paper doll evening gowns is sort of an exploration of something I can not imagine attempting if I didn’t/wasn’t working digitally. Both these dresses have the same bodice. I drew #23 first, actually, well… I drew the dress and then as I was inking, I thought….

“Oh, I really like that bodice, I bet it would look cool as a slinky fit and flare gown.”

So, I duplicated the layer, saved it and then once I had finished first dress, I pulled it back up and set to work on a slinky dress that I had in my head.

This is the sort of thing that working digitally allows in ways sketchbooks don’t as easily.

Yes, I realize I should have numbered them with the floral gown as 22 and the slinky gown as 23, but I was not paying that much attention at the time.

All right, tomorrow, there will be fantasy armor and then… well, we’ll be caught up.

So, yay!

  1. Just wanted to say I’m really enjoying your style lately. The digital is really working. It’s still your art style, but it looks more…professional? I’m not sure if that’s really the word I want? The linework looks somehow both more precise and more relaxed at the same time. I don’t even know if that makes sense, but I don’t know how to put it. Anyway, it’s looking great, and you seem to have gotten more of your enthusiasm back as well, and I love it! 🙂

    • I am so pleased you are enjoying it! It feels really good. I don’t think I’ll keep up this amount of content past July and I still need to explore color more, but yeah… I’m having fun and I’m glad it shows.
