Seems like a legit form of measurement

This is so pretty!

She’s doing very well, thanks!  We’ve had some warm weather, so I took her into the backyard for a little bit of playtime in the leaves.  There’s a short video here.

“Silencer”

I love Adrianette but after this episode Luka stole my heart 💕

Another really well done crossover...seriously, anything by Cassiiopheyia is worth the watch in my opinion

*Boy, that sure is catchy 

The response was utter insane. In a good way! We had 18 (including myself) total, forming a Conga type line, snaking ourselves through the con floor. We even had people leading us shouting, “Make ways for the queen!” It was surreal. We had such an amazing time. Plus all the photos we posed for the crowds were astonishing as well.

The most interesting stories we definitely the responses we were getting from the crowds. Multiple people bowed for us, several people were just amazed at the shear size of the parade. Plus our two bearded handmaidens in the back of our line were getting lots of attention.

I decided on the decoy dress first. I really wanted to create it. That certain dress has a bit of a challenge to it and I knew I needed something fresh for Star Wars celebration in Chicago. But as I thought about it more, I thought it would be fun to make a group out of it! I had a couple of friends waiting to do something big for SWCC and boom, flamemaiden army 2019 was born! That dress has always been a favorite of mine plus the handmaidens. It felt like the perfect time to cosplay these magnificent ladies from Phantom Menace. PLUS we then figured out that it would the 20th anniversary of the film too. PERFECTION!

My outfit was put together pretty organically. There was a lot of experimenting with polyester velvet fabric manipulation with a heat gun. I used some cheap Halloween spider webbing decor I found from Joann’s plus lovely silk dupoini from Silk Baron. It was all over the place. The handmaidens also creates some of their gowns. It’s a tough look especially with trying to achieve the flame ombré. They did such a wonderful job. Also others purchased some from eBay then altered and weathered to their style. The amount of craftsmanship these creators put into their gowns either bought or made was incredible.

Getting recognized was the icing on the cake. The best part of the day was just being a part of this group. I’m honored to be their Sabé. It was an amazing day.

Love without Sex

I’m doing a Philosophy paper on Asexuality. Please reblog if you think Love without Sex is possible! I really need the data. Like if you think love has to have sex.

My mother read me a thing from Mark Lowry, and in it it talks about how God spoke the world in to being, but with man, he actually “got His hands dirty” and breathed life into him, and the way he described it was that the “breathing life” was a kiss. Now when I thought of it, I always imagined God breathing life like one would blow out birthday candles. But I never imagined the act of creating life to be so intimate, more akin to resuscitation than to detached dust blowing. Is that what actually happened? Idk, I’ll probably know after I die, but it just makes so much more sense to me than my previous interpretation, and it makes me happy.

First of all I want to let you know that I am very impressed with your scenes! It’s often difficult to do a full body, but backgrounds too? Plus with the perspective and variety of scenes that I’m seeing here? You’re sure not taking the easy way out!

1. Speaking of perspective, in this first picture I don’t think that the angle of the girl matches the tub.

Not to say that mismatching perspective is a bad thing (in fact it can be quite rad) it just doesn’t seem intentional here.

If you lower her head more to the left, it’ll match better. 

As for the picture itself, It’s really a cute concept. The idea of hanging in a tub with a boatload of duckies sounds very appealing right now. Bubbles seem like they would be an appropriate addition, but those can be a pain to draw, and they aren’t really needed.  

2. Yay! Princess Tutu! I’ll start off by saying my favorite part of this is her face, it’s so serene and pleasant. (you do good work with the faces)

The leg has some strange anatomy. It’s a bit too far to the right. What I usually do when I’m drawing characters with something obscuring their legs (ie, dresses, other characters, ect) is to lightly draw the whole body, and then add whatever it is after.

Also, references are super useful. They’ve really helped me with various ballet poses.

3. Nice wideshot! I’m rather bad about practicing characters from various distances, so to see so much variety is very admirable. Her body language doesn’t seem to be that of one who has lost her papers. If you put the arms arms more to the side, then it’s easier to see how she’s come to lost them. (Also, I don’t know if you were going for a shocked expression, but i included some stuff for that too)

4. I can’t quite tell if this is supposed to be like a snowglobe, or a fortunetellers ball. (though I’m assuming snowglobe)

Also, her legs appear to be missing. (Sorry! I know that body parts tend to be undrawn whilst one is still working on the picture. It just seemed like you might be having some trouble as to where to place her lower half)

5. Hmmmmmm, I might suggest lighting up the lines on the neck because the tendons usually aren’t as pronounced unless a person is flexing them.

Other than that, I don’t really have much more to say on this one other than I’m eager to see where you go with this! She’s very mysterious, and alluring. Oh! Though, if you decide to color her I would suggest more muted colors rather than an intense pallet. (though who knows? Maybe you could pull off an amazing neon flower girl!)

6. Dis one is my favorite.  It’s so whimsical, and sweet! I could totally see this in a storybook somewhere, or put in a little frame. I have no input on this one, but if you decide to work with it more, I would love to see!

7. This picture is very dramatic, from the pose to the coloring; however, I don’t think that the material used for the red does the drawing justice. (Was it crayon that was used? Maybe marker?) Water color would be preferable, but I know how that can wrinkle the paper…hmmm…. Maybe just a color pencil? Aside from coloring with a lighter touch (advice applicable for crayon, not so much for marker) I’m not sure how else to go about it. One more note. The skirt is rather flat when compared with the other fabrics in the drawing. It doesn’t need anything too extreme. Just a little upward motion would help to add a bit more harmony!

Anywhoo! I think that’s all I have to say ;) I hope that it’s helpful. I’m feeling inspired now! Keep on drawing my friend ^.^
