Next in the current batch of commissions is :iconthemaskedshrike:'s Middle-earth Elven character Meneliel. She was really, really fun to do, and I'm very happy with the outcome.

Two more days of holidays, one more commission to finish - I might just make it!!

The detailing on her dress is stunning!! I also really love the way you've slightly slanted her eyes and face.

I like her dress. Do you design all the costumes yourself or do you have references and research clothing? I'm curious--what is your clothing inspiration?

I have a certain amount of "internal stock" - tings I've drawn before, all from roughly the same period and style, so I can mix and match. For the underdress, I was actually going for just crushed silk, googled "silk gown" to see how it fell, and stumbled upon a baptism dress that looked like this. No kidding. I thought it'd fit. :D

So, that's my secret. :D

She's beautiful! The folds in her clothing are perfect. The gown is gorgeous. She has a very pretty and delicate face. Lovely drawing!

I was commissioned to draw this very same character and I had just as much fun depicting her as you did, it seems. I love the layers in her dress and the attention to detail in the trim. I love your delicious line arts:D
