design concepts:

(sorry if my writing is illegible help 😭)

basically: left uncolored are my first concepts;

right is rough full design without some accessories (pretend the lace patterns are there);

i attempted a fascinator hat design LMAO;

and then dress shoes + pearl anklets (i got lazy on the design on the shoes which is why it’s plain);

the final fit is just a mix of kalim and deuce’s outfit.

i was debating on making her a more summery/beachy outfit with the off-shoulder top for the first concepts—

but a different vision got me (tiddy window an open collar bc i thought leona would have it but he didn’t 😔)

and for this version i kind of??? wanna give vibes that she’s off to a beach side tea party.

(also i noticed that the dessert badge thingy with the birthday is always located on the right but i realized when i was already finished RENDERING with the head and hair and i can’t just flip it 😭)

overall most of the design choices are just “random bullshit go” tbh—

but i’m mostly happy with it!! i think something clicked when i looked at the patterns and remembered that purple and yellow can work together and then as a result i was able to integrate the blue too somehow.

first card concept:

tbh i still like this one just as much, but the pose wouldn’t be able to show her new outfit well 😭

i only kept the braid part.

groovy concept:

Reference ->

Twisted from... Horned King from "Black Cauldron" (1985)

School outfits:

Her clothes suppose to highlight her, not the other way around, which is why she prefers elegant and bold, but not flashy style.

She wears female Diasomnia uniform, it just doesn't have any major diffirences from male one.

I believe that it should represent the knight during Its duty, and therefore should be comfortable and easy to move in.

Close up art ->

This uniform will become one of my greatest nightmares. But either way, it definately suits her.
