Description
Madam, you are and always will be my hero.
Whoo, another smoking portrait!
I'm excited for finally drawing something! @__@ it's been weeks, meine Damen und Herren, since I did anything creative at all. I have to say I'm quite pleased with how this piece turned out. I spent longer than usual fixing and revising this thing and it was worth the effort. I probably painted over her face about six times before I was happy with it.
Didn't use reference, just fyi; I think I glanced at some youtube stills and a couple regency costumes and the rest was all the refined art of 'tweaking bits until they look right'. So that's neat. >w>
Have some Dietrich, folks! They don't make 'em like they used to:

If only I could dress like this on a daily basis, I would be blissfully happy.
Dammit. I'm jealous of her outfit. There. I'll say it. Even here cigarette holder, because, as an asthmatic, I can't smoke.
Irksomely lovely<3
A wonderful, rare tribute.

They certainly don't make them like they used to, although a classmate of mine in a tux gave her a run for her money.
