As I try to find ways to beat the heat, I’m pleased to share this fully frilly gown with some boning that I drew. I drew it because I saw the skirt and I thought… That looks hard to draw.

And then I was like, therefore I should try it, because I should try something that I think looks hard. I did end up changing some of the tiers, but all in all, I think it came out pretty well. I also altered the neckline, because the dolls don’t have on the right underwear for such a low cut neckline.

I do sort of regret not trying to get the texture from the bodice in the source image, but I’m not sure how I would have pulled that off anyway. Need to think on that one.

Also, I am working on adding my remaining prints and paper doll books to Etsy as product listings which means taking photos (not my strong suit, but I am working on it) and so I hope I can debut those soon. Though given how hot my office (and usual photo space) is at the moment, that might not happen until the heat breaks here.
