Hey hey there ! Since it's awfully raining and cold outside, I could edit my pictures more rapidly ^^.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here it is the unsatisfying photoshoot I told you about. I'm going to post everything no matter what I think of it ( I already have ordered a new background to redo the whole thing !)
Why am I not satisfied at all with this photoshoot ?
First, my background image appears to be a bad choice^^,,, It was not wide enough so I had to extend it with Photoshop (and it takes time). As it was a pale pink, nothing looked the way I wanted once the light were on. Everything turned pink / red once I was in the frame.
I was aiming for something bright and joyful like on the Tinkerbell movies but with pink as a background choice and my skin being close in tone, I couldn't do it.
Blue looked nice though but too gloomy. In the movies, the settings are green because it's mainly a forest.
I really missed the point here XD,,,
Secondly, I added a layer of tulle ahead of the background, I thought it would help blend the cropped sides with the rest of the picture but in reality, I kept getting stuck in it with my wings XD.
I tried to change my lighting settings (I did them when I wasn't wearing my costume ) but with the costume on, I kept getting tangled in the tulle and knocking the false plants I had made to add depth to the scenery. It kept falling over the place whenever I moved. I had very little energy and this alone almost got me blow a fuse XD.
So I ended up working with lights I couldn't modify and had very little space to move.
With the timer of my camera being of ten seconds, I let you think of the scene: me running to pose on the right spot without making anything fall or staying stuck like a fly in a spider's web. ( it happened so many times XDD).
The plants kept adding ugly shadows on my face and whenever I tried to put them behind me, it kept getting tangled in the tulle or falling because of my wings XDDD. I added lights in front of me so I wouldn't end with dark spots on my face because of the plants shadow. And since I couldn't see myself, there were no possibility for me to check if I was in the right place and in the frame of the picture before pushing the timer button.
The result of this mess is for most of it : blurry pictures, same angles and composition, a flat look on almost all pictures because of too strong lights and my wings being cropped on every photos ( I had to Photoshop the missing parts) and also wrinkled costume because I had no time to make it smooth and arranged in the 10 seconds of timer I had . XD,,,
Lesson to be learned: doing a photoshoot alone while wearing wings in a messy background, doesn't work XD !!!
And I'll have to buy a mirror to put in front of me to check in real time what I'm doing.
Me being like : "please stop falling, the timer is on !":
"Crap"
Spinder Tink, spider Tink !
Can you see the irritationin my eyes ?? XD I was like" God I'm done ! This is so freaking annoying !" Speaking of which I stopped the shoot right after this picture was taken XD,,
Part 3 coming soon with some more backstage pics ^^..
Now I need to start working on Gabrielle's costume and ... I still have a Bulma photoshoot to do :)
Have a nice day/ night !
Take care my dear patrons ! Thank you for being so nice !

I know you are not satisfied, but I think the pictures look great! Amazing job on the costume?
Although the set is driving you to distraction, it does not show in the photos you've posted, apart, maybe for the first one where your expression is probably more heartfelt than acting. After due consideration, if it means we get to see more from you, I'd be quite happy for you to "ruin" more photoshoots! :-)
