Description For
Miss SMV Pageant: Round 1 - Masquerade Ball



It's finally done
This is probably one of the only times where I upload my art full size, but I wanna make sure no details get missed.

BTW, I tried so many different combinations of blue, white, silver and later black, this is the combination I landed on ( I did ask my mom for advice on where to go with a white or a blue mask, and whether to go with lipstick or not.



So, from top to bottom:

- I chose this pose, because it's based on an Elsa/Frozen pose done by senshi-stock... it just seems fitting.  

- I decided to go with her natural brown hair ( I also tried her white hair, I liked this better. )

- The blue gems are a reference ( not the right word I think ) to the beads in her hair when she's transformed. 

- The blue mask, because mom liked it better, I really like it too, white might not have stood out enough on her pale face.

- The gem on her mask, a call back to the gem on her forehead. 

- Lipstick, because it looks fancy ( I considered going with almost nude lips so her eyes would stand out more. 

- The 3 simple snowflakes are standard from Photoshop, all the detailed snowflakes are made by me.

- A sweetheart neckline, like the bodice SilverSnow has.

- The silver stripe on her dress is a reference to the silver stripe on her bodice as SilverSnow.

- I hope her dress ins't to plain. 

- I kept her dress above knee because I saw stockings kinda like this on Pinterest ( those had silver crystals btw... I own a pait of stockings with rainbow glitter thingies on the shins myself. )

- Simple blue pumps ( I considered white, but they didn't look good on the deviantart-green-background. )



Pose reference:

PS: I hope I didn't go to far out of the box.


PPS: I have actually also considered going the full Venetian carnival ( I think ) route, with the full face masks, and pretty much also a full body costume where people are completely covered up and unrecognisable... but I wasn't sure if it would fit the challenge, and if I would be able to do a truly original take on it.

I appreciate the simple elegance of this design. The colors are boldly contrasted and the gems on the leggings are appealing.

I love the pose! Her outfit is VERY silversnow. I love it. Even with the dark mask, that's ok. It doens't have to be her actual fuku, just lightly based on it. One of the ideas I had for Polaris was a galaxy themed dress, but it was just a little toooooo far away from her, but yeah, mixing it up is totally cool. I love it!

Thank you very much for the compliments.

A galaxy themed dress does sound pretty.
I look forward to see what you ended up designing for Polaris.
