Dress at day 2!
So, here is the dress so far:
( Larger photos and progress photos under the cut! )
Now I have to figure out a way to make dozens of gears. I've made a mold, but using Fimo has proven to be both time-consuming and ineffective - out of twenty or so tries, I've only gotten 4 decent gears.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!
The dress still has quite a few pins in it and a lot more work, but it'll hopefully be done within a few weeks. It's really transformed, though - no more ugly bridesmaid dress, I hope.
Going to hopefully add more gears and (if I can find some of a suitable shade) gold chain. Maybe some silk flowers.
But I really like the silhouette. It's killing me that I can't try it on yet.
Thoughts?
