Original Photograph     
Step 1

Step 2

Close-up of face


I have to apologize for the lighting on the photos. I keep taking them when there's no proper daylight, forget to take another one later... *sigh* Artistic license?

Just started the ballet tutu


So nearly done! Must be careful not to overwork it from here on.
I have to tap back on the top's seams and expand the tonal range throughout.

    The face and hands blow me away.
    The balancing of the too dark lines of her top I know you will fix shortly. Just so you know I'm looking.
    Beautiful model too.
