Description
Special thanks to Jackie (aka Propschick) for her way cool Curlers hair (which totally inspired me to do this picture and the concept for it) and to Marleen (aka Erynn) for this unique face morph for her latest character Akuma.
Normally, I do 'happy' people but for this one I wanted to create a 'realistic' scene that focused more on the emotional state of the character as well as lighting, skin tones, etc.
My goal was to show this character expressing a variety of emotions - trepidation, worry and anxiety while doing a 'smile for the camera' look. It's the look you see when someone smiles but they really aren't smiling because their stomach is full of butterflies. She's getting ready for a beauty pageant and she knows she must be perfect. Her hair must be curled just right and her makeup must be right. But the pressure is intense.
I used Syltermermaid's Chelina for the character skin and wonderful attire. The background comes from Mapps and RichardPhotos' sexy shower set. I've always wanted to use it for another picture and this seemed like the ideal opportunity.
Please zoom on this to see the details!
Thanks sooo much for your favs and comments on my last picture. I've been 'out of the loop' for a couple days. I fell asleep in front of the TV two evenings in a row and totally missed out on doing any artwork and comments (which I can only do after work). I did some catch up tonight but will have to do more tomorrow! So sorry about that.
Have a great Friday!
