Diamond Dogs

This is an example of what happens when you only have a crude idea of what you're doing when you start doodling.
I started off with an idea of drawing some sort of a stripper, or a dancer, and that then evolved into cabaré dancers and that idea carried me quite far.
Still, the end result turned out way more "Moulin Rouge!" than I had in mind when I started. Hence the picture of Moulin Rouge (as it was in the 1900's) in the back ground and the movie refrence in the title of this piece.
You could think of this as a nod to one of my favourite films.

To be completely honest, I really don't know what to think of this piece. It has evolved so much from what it was when I started that I hardly recognise it now.

There are parts that I like enormously, her stockings for example turned out better than expected (I made that fishnet pattern all by myself) and I got the corset looking like velvet. But the general design of her outfit is less design and more accident and I'm not entirely satisfied with the colours.

All in all, I might not be over the moon with how this turned out, but I am satisfied none the less.
