One of the most interesting parts of drawing is searching for fashions for my capstones to wear.

I go to shopstyle a lot to do a quick browse of outfits or particular articles of clothing… unless whatever I’m working on is outlandish or historic. Generally, the clothing that ends up in the images on aren’t derivative of any single item of clothing from any brand (with obvious exceptions). I just have fun mixing things up and making them flouncy and girly. I especially like working with the look of tulle, fine lace, and layered veiling and the way fabric drapes. It’s so much fun.

I kind of feel like Kaylee in Shindig (Firefly).

But as Mal says,

“What are you going to do in that rig? Flounce around the engine room? Be like a sheep walking on its hind legs.”

So, for now, I’ll just admire at all the pretty clothes and work on my capstones and commissions in the engine room.
