TCC = Tetsuko Cosplay Calendar
I don't know which I hated drawing more - the chain or the costume.
Don't get me wrong - I loved that costume. When I didn't have to draw it. It's a lot more complicated than it looks! But a purchase I made some years ago turned out to be very helpful: a plastic figurine of Leia in the slave-girl costume. The colors on it weren't quite right, but then again I found it kind of difficult to determine exactly what the costume colors were supposed to be! Are the metal parts of the costume brass or copper? The cloth (or at least non-metal) parts of the bra - greenish, or brown? Studying the photos I found at this [link] (thanks to
) doesn't lead me to any definite conclusion; the text at the site states that the costume was made of "gold and Lashaa silk and featuring Jerba leather boots", but some of the photos made it look like copper! So I went with something kind of between brass and copper for the metal fittings, and between brown and green for the bra.
And the chain? Well, I'd already started drawing a regular old chain in the picture, when I saw this picture, and saw that those bastards at Lucasfilm has designed and made their own chains! Now I had a substantial length of chain to redraw
But I managed to get it done.
This is the first time I've deliberately tried to coordinate a character with a month relevant to that character. So what's the connection between May and Princess Leia? Mmm, I'll let you guess
