    This technique is so beautiful and i really want to try it on canvas and do an entire painting with the same materials just a canvas instead of the silk. As a painter I'm always watching these videos and telling myself to try new things and branch out. This dying technique reminds me of watercolor.
    Your dress turned out absolutely phenomenal and I could see them giving the character an alternate outfit with the long gown if even just in an opening scene or chapter screen.

    I love the advice on how to translate somewhat impossible anime looks into a beautiful costume! I also LOVE Genshin but I’m not comfortable showing as much skin as a lot of the characters have on display - and also a lot of their costumes just straight up don’t make sense if you know how clothes work! I’d love to see more of this part of your process - the translation/design phase! Also fun cosplays would be awesome to see, even if you maybe do them as shorter/easier to edit videos?

    For old timey dresses that used to drag on the ground & were hard to wash, they'd add a strip of fabric on the inside that you could remove & replace. That might be an option if you are going to do more photo shoots outdoors & you don't want to ruin the bottom of your dresses. If this is new info for you, check out old gowns at museums to see how wide they did the semi-disposable inside skirt liner. Beautiful dress. It's fun to try new techniques.

    Although at the beginning you were saying something about the fact that you didn't like that she was basically wearing a leotard. I feel the reason she doesn't wear something like this though is because she is the leader of a resistance. Wouldn't be the most practical to show up to a war in a ball gown. But then again nor would it a leotard either.
    But ignoring all of that I still love it, it looks absolutely stunning and you did such a good job!

    Passion project cosplays are the best because it’s fun to watch you have fun.
