Day 28 - Art Deco Cally and Coat

Today's [livejournal.com profile] naarmamo entry is another Art Deco Blake's 7 one. A friend and I were saying that Cally's Bounty coat would make a great Art Deco outfit, but when I looked at it, I found it was really just a spotty anorak. This is not good enough. Cally deserves better, so here she is in a proper coat.

This is fantastic!! I think it's the best yet. Love her pose and expression.

Now that is a proper coat.

It is, and properly glam for our Cally.

Cally's a good subject; she has the right shape. :-)

If I had the ability, I would be making myself a coat in that design. It's wonderful and suits art Deco Cally beautifully.

Thanks! Of course you'd need a Liberator handgun to go with it.

Probably less convenient for climbing over battlements, but let's hope she gets a chance to wear it somewhere else.

Yes, Cally does suit the 30s look... this is gorgeous :)

Gorgeous! I love the way you scroll down half-thinking she's got an Irish setter or something of the sort on a lead, and then you realise it's a handgun... :-)

Thanks! :-)

An Irish setter or Borzoi or Afghan hound would be very 30s, but not terribly B7. :-) Do we even see a dog in the series? At least there's one cat so I know they aren't extinct.

That is a wonderful Art Deco look. You've made it work very well.

I too have a desire for a coat like that, but being short, and plump in the middle, it wouldn't work on me. I no longer have the right shape to be Art Deco.

Ahhhh...the coat is perfect and Cally is perfect!
Now I realised that you may make your living as an outstanding fashion designer - and I am not joking!!!!

[identity profile] entropy-house.livejournal.com 2009-08-28 01:15 pm (UTC)(link)
That's perfect! I love how furry you've made the spots and how you've captured Cally's crinkly hair.

Ahahaaha, what fun. I hope you'll do a composite of all of them together in one image after August is over.

I don't think so! I did win a prize at high school for a fashion design competition, but I only entered it because I like drawing. I'm not that interested in clothes; most of mine are years old, some more than 10. Unless I could design for real people and not those with half-starved Art Deco figures.

Thanks! It never looks like much till I've coloured it. :-)

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2009-08-28 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
But they don't go together, and there are two Callys! I'll post them to [livejournal.com profile] b7fanart though, and make them an art page on my site. :-)

Lovely!

Me neither. :-( I also regret growing breasts in my mid 20s. I used to be pleasantly androgynous.

Thanks!
