Not sure if this is the right place to post xD Sorry if it's not :o Hi everyone! It's been years since I had tried my hand at making CWs and I've been trying to improve myself.I am really looking for some critiques or possible interest? I would be so happy if anyone could take a look-see at my work and maybe point some things that they'd feel would cause it to be rejected or just something about them that looks bad? I haven't been keeping up with the rules of the market and I was wondering if I could get this to be done as a whole dress rather than as separate pieces(Dress and Skirt)

I know these types of wearables might not be everyone's cup of tea but I have always been a big fan of the beautiful dresses worn during the olden period and I felt positively inspired to create something like those, I'm also hoping to find some people like me who would want something like this onsite. Just ignore the wig and makeup, I just did those for fun xD [EDITED] [IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/28rzmlz.png[/IMG][IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/1zbzt2.png[/IMG][IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2q0tuu1.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/33mv3p2.png[/IMG][IMG]http://i60.tinypic.com/281ymue.png[/IMG]

Anyway I would love to hear from you guys what you think, and don't worry about offending me or anything, I would rather people be honest than anything else <3 Thank you in advance to anyone who gives me a moment of their time!

WOW I really like your work c: Such a breath of fresh air ;o;

You can submit the dress as one piece. Im not sure about the perspective on dress since that is tricky. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE HEADPIECE wow ;o; Im not an artist so Im not comfortable in giving critique but lovely work c:

;o; mebbe

Thank you so much for the input and pings <3

hi there n_n

I actually did like the idea of having the skirt and top part seperated for layering purposes!

The one thing I could point out is trying to color the inlines. Staff usually doesn't like it when it is super super pale, but you can usually use a darker shade of the area (for example, the folds on the skirt part could be dark green and dark brown, as opposed to black). It will help smoothening out the dress overall (it also usually helps to 'lighten' the feel of it).

The skirt has a slight perspective issue - the green part looks more front-face as opposed to 3/4 view, and such the bow also looks misplaced. It should be a little more on (our) left, to follow the 3/4 perspective.

The lace parts (top of skirt & top of shirt) could also have thinner lineart - since it is lace, staff usually accepts thiner lineart so that the fabric looks more delicate looking. Some artists will make the lineart a darker shade of the area, much like I have mentiond earlier for inlines - so making the lineart dark brown in this case! (^ this is a trickier part, since it has to be rather dark either way. If it is too light, it is possible the staff will deny it. It really depends on their mood to be honest xD)

I did actually like the makeup - I think it would make a great version (minus the eyes of course, since it isnt allowed yet, but the eyeshadow/cheek combo is interesting!)

Same with the wig, who has a nice start to it (:

Annnnnd I agree with , the headpiece is super cute!

I do better with specific questions, as opposed to general comments, so if there is anything in particular, feel free to ping / mail me and I'll try to be more accurate n_n

said everything I was gonna but here have this

Clicky me!

You might find it helps with the 3/4 perspective :3

Thank you so much, I smailed you, thanks for being patient with me :D

Thank you so much as well! Definitely saving that! :D btw I love your work!

Already have edits up!

Wow! Glad to see you are making historical outfits, I love them a LOT! <3 <3 I think the skirt still have a little bit of perspective issues.

Thank you so much for your input! <3

I have moved it a bit more to the left :D

Ahh that looks a lot better :) I think the right (our side) of the outer skirt just need to be a lil bit more left ^-^ I did a bit of red line, hope you don't mind? o3o

Thank you so much for your help, and thank you for taking the time to outline it for me too <3 :D

I have an updated version :D

You're very welcome :) This outfit will be perfect for the masquerade <3

I hope you will be making Elizabethan/Tudor era gowns too someday? o3o

Can't wait for masquerade, it's my favorite event on subeta! xD Ohhh I also love the gowns from those periods, especially their crown/headpieces! Thanks for the inspiration <3

Me too!!! All the event wears are so beautiful :3

Yeah those gowns are really gorgeous, I love those sleeves <3
