Flaming Axel Barbie
Okay, I've been feeling weird and sickish all day (possibly because Neko is and I'm somehow picking it up from 2000 miles away), but I've almost got the first Barbie-sized version of Axel's coat done. ^^ It's really a learning experience! I only have the hood and the sleeves left really, because there's no point in finishing the hems, adding a zip or worrying about lining at this point. There's just one thing.
It's red.
Really red.
And satiny.
(sweatdrop)
See, I didn't want to blow money on just the trials. I know that whatever I come up with isn't going to be great in rounds one and two, so it doesn't make sense to buy materials. That said, I used what I had laying around. In this case, a red sateen fabric. It looks... very evening gown. o.o;; I'm hoping the hood will help. Somehow.
In any case, here are pictures. They're big, so dial-up beware!
( Axel's a blonde right now )
