Or rather, just an expansion of the earlier design :) - I liked quite a few aspects of the prior version, but I felt it really just need just a bit more direction to get everything to come together. A black and white sailor uniform felt just wacky enough while being recognizable and differentiated!
So here we are :) I think it feels just that slightly "off" enough for me (and hopefully you) to do a double take rather than just go "oh, another cool lady", but perhaps it's possible to refine it more.
The tattoos are pretty fun, so I kept quite a bit of them, with a bit more effort put into figuring them out properly. For her hand, subtlety prevailed with it being changed to a more concealed prosthetic version that I think felt just right with the tattoos - sort of like patterned porcelain!
As always, I'm eager to hear what you think! And thank you for your continued support :)
p.s. I want to also do a quick reflection on the exhibition, and how fun it was to be there in person, but that will come just in a bit.
