sketchbook: lil’ twiggy

Ignore the crazy eyes. I brought makeup with me to do the twiggy eyes on my little model Kaitlyn. But as soon as I started applying the thick eyeliner I felt bad. Like Toddlers and Tiaras bad. This girl is way too pretty for that! Anyways, you can see how I sketched twiggy’s eyeliner on this photo.


The hardest part of this coat was the collar. Sometimes it’s easy to draw something but harder to figure it out. Everything else was pretty straight forward from the sketch, though it did take a while.


Here is what the sketch became(entry post):

The coat and bow turned out exactly how I wanted them to! I was so happy with the outfit.

I didn’t really sketch out the dress, it was more of a do as you go project. 


I’m working on a how-to for this outfit, which will be up on the Project Run and Play blog tomorrow. I’ll try to go more in-depth with some of the techniques later on, but the how-to will get you started!


P.S. Thanks for your super nice comments on this outfit! Each one made me smile!
