The 12 Dancing Princesses

Okayyyyyy, now as everyone knows I have this obsession with paint.
Also, as not as many of you know, Sophia and I (her blog is on my blogroll) are writing a play. The 12 Dancing Princesses. I decided to combine these two things, and here is what I got!!!!!!! Everyone needs to know what the characters look like, right? The problem is, I got more focused on the dress than the character itself. So, it's not as much of a character study as designing clothes on paint (harder than it looks. Wayyy harder than it looks.)


Going from oldest to youngest:

Juliette~22, a bit selfish, calm, cool, and collected, stunningly beautiful

[Insert Juliette here]

She is the oldest, and one of the main characters, so I haven't drawn her yet, I'm too scared.

Isabelle~21, singer, performer, confident


That would be Isabelle, the singer and performer.
She has twins!!!!!
Observe,
Liana~21, bookish, quiet, reserved

Ugly, is she not? (Sorry, she didn't mean to turn out that way. I think it's the hair)
AND, her other sister:
Annalise~21, dreamer, hopeless romantic

Hmmm... are the gold shoes too much?


Okay, this next one doesn't have a twin (I kinda feel bad for her, she is all alone):
Jessamine~20, skeptical, sharp, sensible

Don't you love her dress? What about her hair? ITS RED! Cough, cough. RED IS BEAUTIFUL!

And another loner (BUT WITH A TOTALY AMMAAAAZZZINNNG DRESS):
Lorelei~19, artistic, spontaneous, musical


And if you don't like her dress, just look at her hair! Braids are really hard to draw on paint! I love them so much.

Another loner, who probably thinks shes the oldest and it keeps her happy (but yea, no, shes just really bossy most of the time)
Eloise~18, industrious, serious, less-is-more doctrine

Look at that business dress! I like that line on the hip-ish, and the neck is pretty cool.

This girl is sooo un-princessy.
Remy~17, tomboyish, adventurous, athletic

Yeah, that's a corset and bloomers. Got a problem?

And the dreaded... i mean... sweet... 16's
Cassandra~16, flirty, girly, giggly
Cressida~16, flirty, girly, animated

Neither of them are done, I need to change their faces and maybe their dress. I haven't decided if they are scandalous enough to have dresses that short. They are REALLY SHORT. And kind of ugly. Especially considered the time period. Whatever. I also need to change the hair. (I will probably start these girls all over, but this is the general idea: bright, fun, blond.)

This girl is crazy shy (why isn't there more like her? If I grew up with 11 other crazy sisters I would be so messed up.
Felicity~15, shy, timid, insecure, tentative

I think she looks really young. I don't know if that's good or bad.

And the last girl.
Cecilia~14, sweet, clever, clumsy
[Insert Cecilia here]
She is the actual main character- I'm REALLY scared of drawing here. I have no idea what she looks like. Even less than Juliette (who I kinda know) Hopefully she is pretty! She is the one who gets married (haha, did I spoil it for you?)




AND THAT is what I've been spending allll of my free time on!!!!! Enjoy basking in the awesomeness of Paint.
