Formal

Base, inspiration
This one really didn't take long to shade at all, but I really like her. I like that the folds are in scale to her size and not ginormous like I used to do them on preps.

My base
This is another old one that I still like despite its flaws. I would love to have a dress like this.

Base
I felt like I should bump this one to formal to bulk out this page a little. I still quite like this one, despite some of the less-than-great folds on the skirt.

Base
Another one bumped from the self portrait page. A slightly awkward design that makes me look pregnant or like I have just the one hip, but I like it nonetheless.

Base
I started this one and couldn't do anything with the hair, but liked the dress enough to not trash it completely. Four months and many, many colour-changes later, and I decided this one is good enough to be called done.

My base
Oh. My. God. This dress was nearly the death of me, not that it really shows. I'm very happy with the result though, and the design. I wish I had a dress that looked like this.

Base
Inspired by the colours in this picture.

My base
If I thought my dress for round one nearly killed me, this one most definitely did. I kept having to reshade the skirt and for a lot of the time it looked awful, and there were too many colours in the palette to keep track of! But I love the finished result, though she looks better on a darker background.
