I've been a little lapse in terms of the Photo Challenge stuffs, and I have no excuse really, except for the fact I'm a lazy bastid sometimes, and this might just be one of those times haha.
If you're around on flickr at all, you'll see that this style of picture is fairly common, but whenever I've attempted to take something similar before I feel like I failed miserably. Although this style is new to me, I needed to know whether or not it was an option for me to investigate... and I'm not at all upset about how this has turned out. It's definitely given me a little more perspective on how to make this work, and that gives me a foothold on future improvements too. Yay for learning new things!
Another thing I did was make my hands bigger. I know I've said this before, but the whole perspective vs proportion thing really does bother me and i'm a lot happier with the size of my hands in this pic, compared to the last one!
Today I will be doing some RL things, which some of you readers will know makes me incredibly nervous. I haven't slept yet, which is probably a poor choice, but I made my choice and now I'm stuck with it because it's 7.30am and I don't have time - plus if I nap I'll only oversleep and that'll be even worse for all the people involved in my escapades outside. Maybe, in a weird way, this picture depicts subconsciously how I feel today. Like "Hey life, fuck you - I'm coming to get you!" and you know what? That just fills my heart with happy.
It all started with the hair. I know. You've probably seen it blogged already, but seriously - how can I not love these twisty curls and delicious little pigtails? I'm an absolute sucker for big hair, and I would kill for this style in RL.
Add to that the brand new tank & sweater set from NS store (there's a massive hud with options to hide the tank or the sweater, change the colours of the tank and change the design of the sweater!), and the ripped pants from the Evani Gacha and I was legit in love.
It took me a minute to figure out what I wanted to do with this, and then it hit me that I'd make a wonderful singing Pickle, somewhere random, just not giving a flying monkeys about who was around me... and that's how Netherwood came into play!
So here you can see a wild Pickle in her natural habitat, leaning up against a vintage gas-tank type dealio, her music up high and her eyes closed as she completely forgets her environment, and gets completely lost in her favourite song... hopefully, not scaring the animals. :P
