It was busy but okay.
I took advantage of not having classes to not study, or actually not watch Idol Time PriPara which is what I was really planning to do, to just really put my 100% in. I decided to use a song that's kind of old, but it's what came to me at the time. I'm glad actually because I kind of moved freely compared to animation that is super-recent in my mind.
The outfit for Briar I'd made some time before. It's actually just as various pieces over a long period of time, mixed and matched, but it informed how I wanted to make Dexter's outfit. The pants are storebought from some random fashion pack thing, but the overshirt was this faux-silk material I thought would be good for dresses. It gave me the most trouble, because I decided that not only was it going to be a coat but I'd also do the black piping on the one side to give it character, which was ridiculous.
I made it before I started on the undershirt, which was part of a batch of fabric I bought at the same time as the faux-silk and I was really mad because it was solid and took to sewing super well (I had to work it over his head and then sneak his hands in and it didn't break/tear/lose thread at all). I wish I'd just made the whole outfit out of similar fabric, but the contrast is nice.
I have no idea where the concept with the puzzle pieces came from, aside from I've been trying to figure out what to do with the 1000 piece puzzle I'll clearly never finish (I'm sure I've lost some pieces now with all that throwing).
I'm glad I went with the whole concept (with both Briar and Dexter "dancing"), even though it did a number on my lower back.
Went back to sleep and got up later, feeling better.
should have picked some up to try it out when i had the chance
If I had started doing one of those take-a-photo-of-yourself-everyday montages of myself I wouldn't have the heart to look at it.
I don't take photos of myself because I am not photogenic, alas
