Today is another toddler paper doll. I'll be at these for a while -- I'm really loving these! This one is inspired by Hannah, with her sort of 80s inspired fashions.
Hailey also has an 80s inspired wardrobe. I was a kid in the 80s, but it didn't have much of an impact. I didn't really think about clothing then! Well, aside from wanting to go to private school and wearing my plaid skirt as often as possible. And I didn't like corduroy.
This wardrobe has neon colors, asymmetrical necklines, acid-washed jeans, and vivid patterns. I tried making high-top sneakers. They have a Marty McFly vibe and I kind of love it! I tried to create an acid-washed effect on both the jacket and jeans. I used a gradient mesh in Illustrator. It's a tricky tool to use and I haven't spent much time in it lately. I also created a tulle effect using a pattern fill. It was easier than I thought it would be, so look for more tulle in the future!
Of all the toddler paper dolls so far, I think this is my favorite. I love the depth of texture you managed to achieve with the jeans and the tulle. Great work.
ReplyDeleteThank you! The tulle was super easy once I stopped over thinking it. And the jean texture is something I want to play with more. It's a complicated tool to use, but the results can be amazing!
