yeah, since the majority of the bulk of a tree is in its canopy, but circle skirts get smaller at the top it looks a bit goofy circle skirts are also circles so in order for an element to look vertical while worn you have to angle it to match the curvature here’s a very rough visual to demonstrate

i recently rewatched madoka & i noticed something. there’s a line in ep 1 or 2 where (i think) sayaka calls homura a cosplayer ALL the magical girls look like cosplayers so originally i’d assumed it was for the sake of insulting homura but this time i realized *it’s those goddamn shoe tights*

Finished the art for my forest glade skirt design. One thing that’s really nice about working on box skirts is that I can finally make designs like this, which looked rather silly on circle skirts! #art #original

Now that we're making box skirts instead of circle skirts, I can work on skirt designs that would have been really difficult to make work on a circle, like this forest glade design! #art #original

Mock-up of a Maya Kern Pocket Dimension skirt featuring a moody, glowing forest scene in shades of olive green and black. Tall silhouetted trees surround a softly lit forest floor dotted with tiny glowing lights. The image shows a model wearing the skirt alongside front and back views of the design. A note states that the mock-up may differ from the final product.

Having trouble picking a final background color for my magpie design. The art was inspired by linocut prints, so I originally wanted a color that resembles butcher-block paper, but now I can't decide! #art #store

Four color variations of a Maya Kern skirt design featuring black-and-white magpies flying through sparkling stars and swooping lines. Each row shows the print laid flat alongside a model wearing the finished skirt mock-up. Background options include warm tan, dusty mauve, deep muted purple, and dark taupe.
