it’s the chain i go get and beat you with until you understand who’s in command here.
ahh, firefly. christina and i watched star trek (the reboot) this morning, and then i put on firefly.
while we were watching star trek, i started making a body block. according to the costume design book i am reading, that is the first step to designing for someone’s body. okay! i was going to do a very small one for a stuffed animal, so that i could make small outfits, but christina volunteered to be my model (i think she is hoping for cute clothes made to her measurements; boy, is she going to be totally disappointed!!!!).
anyway, what you see in this picture is the body block for christina’s upper body. it took about four, four and a half hours to do it (including the time i spent measuring and doing all the required math and meticulously taping together pieces of graph paper).
here is what i have realized: i need a freaking ruler. my measuring tape is awesome, but i can’t draw straight lines with it. oops! i did okay with a piece of cardboard, but it was annoying.
anyway, whatever. LOOK! I MADE BUST DARTS ON PAPER!!!
