Description
Old one but It still looks good. Now the gallery won't look so empty ;D!I copied this from a picture of a model of an online goth shop where I usually go in search of some inspiration for clothes. I really liked the pose and the fabric of the dress in that particular picture. My intention was to practice a colouring technique that I read in a book, which consists in painting the picture in gray tones and then adding colour afterwards. Because it was looking really good in grayscale and everybody seemed to prefer it that way I decided to leave it as it is. It looks a bit realistic and, even though it's not what I first had in mind, it still turned out fine and it's good for practice. Maybe there is hope for me in C.G.
Due to popular demand ;D, here's the website where I got the reference photo from:
Drac-In-A-Box
The photo still exists on the website! Looks smaller than I remember it to be...
The Original Photo
They have great photos! The photographer wasn't only concerned about showing the clothes but also about giving the right feel and atmosphere to it.
The photographer's name is Paolo Frunzio and the model is Valeria Sinistrari.

You don't feel that it's a bit static ? I don't like detailing my drawings this much because I'm afraid they will look like rocks

I use the default photoshop brush, changing its opacity as I felt necessary. And a tablet of course ^_^.

I just had a go at drawing the reference photo you used for this - tricky - that corset looks great - I definitely didn't have the patience to try it. great work here by the way, but then you don't need me to tell you do you...

I don't have much patience for details either, but I have to do it once in a while for practice ^^. I like sketching the most! And I don't like spending much time on the same illustration XD.

When I first looked at it, I thought it was a black and white photo!
Amazing work!

Thanks!
The idea was to look photograph like, but I got lazy in the end XD, and that's why it still has a bit of the brush texture.
Oh well. 9.9 Let's call it "style". XD
