Lily in her Native Regalia

4/8/2016

6 Comments

 
Lily's native ensemble is finally finished. Now I just need to take some nice photos of her in it. Unfortunately it's still not good enough outside, what with all the snow we've been having. There's flurries flying out there right now as I type. So some quick shots inside will have to do until then...
Picture
Lily is wearing the 'sleeves' as 'capes' in these photos. Also, keep in mind that even
though this ensemble was created to fit a Limhwa Lily, mine is normal resin, while
​the new owner's Lily is tan resin, so she'll look even better in it.
Picture
Now if it would just warm up and stop snowing, because I'd really like to photograph her in
the field of blue scillas. Mine are showing colour, and there's even one blooming in a warmer, sheltered spot against the house, so it won't be long now.  If it would just warm up.

I hear Mother Nature is going to throw the 'seasonal lightswitch' at the end of next week,
and we will make the jump from winter to summer.  No 'spring' this year.

Thanks! The scillas have started blooming, so now I need a cloudy day. I know what I want as a photo, but actually getting it is very stressful.

Thanks! I have a great deal of love and respect for North American Native culture, so do my best to portray an outfit as accurately as possible.
