The unintentionally odd world of Shin...
My latest art request(s), jammed into one post.
[The Base Girl:]
Great reference for hair
But if you'd rather like to try something like this, go for it:
One|||Two
This is a picture of me from the summer before my senior year.
It's 2 years old, but otherelse than my haircolor and length, nothing's changed. And yes, I am raising my eyebrow since I'm quirky.
I've got dark brown eyes (chocolate, they say.. mmm.) and I have this natural blush which sucks because when I actually blush, I look like a drunk asian. I don't wear much makeup--just dark purple eyeliner on the lower lashes and mascara when I don't wear glasses. I also wear a sparkly light pink lip gloss (Covergirl's Wetslicks "Fruit Spritzer" in Guava Splash" if you're really trying to see the exact color).
And.. that's all I guess. PM me if you have questions on everything I've missed.


[Outfit:]

REFERENCE BASE, USE MEEEEE
The image above should GREATLY help you since it pretty much sums up everything that I'll about to ramble about-- The only thing it doesn't have are the different options you can have for drawing bottoms.

---
Please refer to reference photos (at bottom of this post) for the white shirt, gray/black/plaid vest combination.
If you want to make this more like a "sexy secretary" outfit, draw the white shirt a bit unbuttoned with this bra just barely peaking under (with white rather than pink though)
Sorry, it's my new bra and I would love to show it off if it wasn't so trashy to do so.
---
Bottoms:
You can choose from any of these.

Jeans:
[ox]
A two-layered skirt with slight pleats/ruffles:
[xo]
Or short, slightly "bubble" shorts:
[ox]

Jeans can be as shown, black, or grey. Skirt and shorts can be black or grey. Leg warmers or knee/thigh high socks are optional for the latter two.

Shoes:
You can go with any of these. :3
[xo]
[ox]
Or you can draw anything you'd prefer, but it's gotta have some sort of heel. Wedge and platform heels are fine too.

Accessories:
(Pin this on anything, even a headband so that it's just right above the ear, or on your choice of bottom)
[ox]
Belt, which should actually just hang lopsided on the hip.
[xo]
Necklace:
[ox]
Neck ribbon (can be combined with necklace)
Earrings, which are REQUIRED if you draw earlobes (feel free to simplify, but the pearl must be a "drop" shape)
In white gold rather than yellow, please.

And, anything you'd like to add on-- Especially for the bare arms.
Such as these:
[xo]
[ox]
Or lace fingerless gloves that reach somewhere in the middle of the elbow and wrist?

Please, please feel free to have as much artistic freedom as you'd like as long as the colors are generally correct.

Questions? Go ahead and ask since I'll probably try and read this over in the morning and not understand a word.

Some of the best references drawn:
Ruffle on shirt should be as wide as those on the vest, elsewise this is PERFECT
Vest should be lower, ruffle sizes should be equal, elsewise also perfect<3


PM me if you have questions. :3
