I thought the musketeers ladies challenge thing was a good excuse to try and draw samara – I don’t think i’ve quite got her down yet to be honest but I kind of like the direction this is going in? Also I didnt sign up cause I thought id still be on exams…

Also trying out doing kind of marker washes with pencil lines which is fun

the arabic (hopefully) roughly transliterates as al-adalus, al-maghrib, bayt?

Which vaguely means: what the moors called spain (like 100 years earlier than this but whatever), lit. the west an arabic name for morocco (remaining the only arabic word I actually vaguely know), home?

And I know very little arabic grammer but its also not really meant to be a coherant sentence

bayt I think maybe more commonly used to mean house – but it also means a line in a poem (and can mean home so its meaning home here)

“We’re incredibly adolescent on the set. I spent 20 minutes on three different occasions, hiding in Luke’s trailer, just waiting to scare him. That’s not even adolescent… it’s infantile. We also enjoyed making prank calls. I spent half an hour on the phone to Clarks [shoe shop] pretending to be a man who couldn’t get his shoe off.”

Victorian dramas are Never a problem 😛 (where do I watch the thing?? I’m alright with gore I Think, I shall give it a try anyhow)
 
Haha I just read the wiki summary, I see why you phrase it as a “non-creepy” question… but tbh without even having watched it I’m seeing “victorian dress” and “you can have a gun” and this is sounding Pretty good from here.
I don’t know if I’d be able to make the actual dress, but I’ve got a pattern in mind for one that I want to make that’s similar, but without the poofy bit at the back…

I shall try and help find a link later (I’m on my phone) haha everyone i asked up here when it came out last series was like ‘its a bit violent’ and I’m sitting here going ‘well yeah….’ to be fair the first episode is a little disturbing (its about the first snuff films)

Thats fair enough, dresses look hard if its similar and suitably victoriany it should work to be honest. (don’t quote me on this but) I think the poofy bit is called a bustle? and is usually atatched to the jacket bit or can be atatched seperately? so when not wearing that no poofy bit. I think definitely some of her dresses don’t have it so your safe 🙂

Thankyou 🙂 (I will try and watch the first episode tonight rather than cramming my maths work) Ahhh I see, so long as it’s not weirdly psychological (*cough*Dexter*cough*) I will probably survive :p (huh, that sounds pretty interesting from a purely historical perspective?)

Heh, I don’t think the patterns I’m looking at will be too hard… Yeah, I think it is a bustle! (I went searching for another dress pattern and I’ve found a nice bustle-y one…) I think if I can I will go for the poof – it’ll look better/be more interesting to make 😉

I am also going to rewatch the first series at some point, so I need to find links anyway 🙂

I wouldn’t say its psychological, or at least not overly so. And it is interesting historically, creative liberties of course but, some real events and real people, the new series has teves and merrick in the first episode and apparently jane cobden is showing up at some point so that’ll be cool (her dress on the promotional thing is nice too)

poof is always good, very victorian looking yes?
