A few streams ago, Shimakaze from Azur Lane Crosswave got married. This interactions was not known. To commemorate her wedding, I decided to make this fanart of her in a wedding dress. The groom is you, the player. So, I didn’t feel the need to draw a groom. I just wanted the focus to be her in her lovely dress. The maiden is from Japan.

I made two new marker landscapes. I used Marabu landscape bundle. It came with the paper and markers to make these artworks. The first artwork features a desert. I started with the dry trees first. I had one in the foreground and the other in the background. This guides the audience to the desert mountains background. Once the trees looked nice and pretty, I added the yellow sand below.

It is a bit difficult to find outfits for my Doll chateau dollies. Even so, I am making the best with what I got.

So, I cannot change the shoes she wears. They are sculpted into her leg. This makes...

This is my new solo Barbie photoshoot. It features my cute doll in a nice pink and blue dress. The skirt has some nice texture here and there. The shimmering looks good on the camera. I still have plenty of Barbie outfits to show off. I am taking my time with this photoshoot. I careful plan the pose before taking the photo. I am just exaggerating a little.  This doll poses well. I might go for a ballet theme or not. I don’t know. I tend to write this blogs before the photoshoot. It saves me a lot of time....
