Ok, that didn't quite work so I added an additional quarter inch to the outside of the neckline. That's better- it ended up fitting just the way I wanted it to.

Next, I refined the shape of half of the neckline and measured it. It ended up being six centimeters, so I cut out a triangle with a one centimeter base and traced it onto the neckline.

Rooting is finished, tacky glue is drying, so now I'm making more of the outfit. Specifically, the collar. First, I traced the neckline of the bodice pieces.

I don't have any photos for some reason but in the completed outfit she's also wearing a wire bustle support. Here's one additional photo I dug up from my Google Drive.

I participated in last week's artshare so here's one from my archives: back in 2018 I turned a Catrine Monster High doll into my friend's Victorian (1880s) OC, and I made her outfit using only historically accurate techniques and materials to the best of my ability. More details in alt text.

Thanks for the promo opportunity! This is Nana Matsumoto- she's the protagonist of my web novel. In the beginning she's deeply in the closet, but she comes to terms with her bisexuality over the course of the story. And then here's Katsuhiro, the transmasc protagonist of her favorite anime.

I'm an architecture enthusiast so I actually really enjoy drawing and painting building interiors/exteriors. In comics, you can kinda cheat by drawing one "establishing shot" to convey where the characters are, then in the next panels you can make the background kinda loose and gestural.

Garden Mysteries Draculaura doll with really cool makeup

Garden Mysteries Draculaura doll with really cool makeup

Another serendipitous consequence of starting over was getting my hands on a really cool Drac at a steep discount. I got a Garden Mysteries doll because it was on sale at Walmart and I needed a new head. I got an absolutely stunning screening though and I opted to sacrifice my Wave 1 doll instead.

A new Draculaura head with a few plugs of bright pink hair rooted in.

Well, I screwed up real bad. To make a long story short, the original head that I rooted had to be completely scrapped and I had to start over. That's fine though, I ended up getting a brighter shade of pink that I like much more.

A three panel comic, rendered in marker and ink. In the first panel, Lex Luthor is saying "I've already killed you, Superman." In the second panel, he's saying "...is what I WOULD say if he were here right now. Thank you for your time, Mr. Kent." In the third panel, Clark Kent looks up from a notepad with an anxious expression.
