Hey, Rachel!
This is probably a really retarded way to go about communicating this stuff to you, but I figured it's so all over the place, it wouldn't translate well via e-mail or whatever.
(Plus my scanner broke, so these are pooty photographs, but I'm hoping if I kind of vomit it all out, you might have ideas on organization and stuff)
So, here goes:
First is the sketch I started with that gives an overall idea.
Basically, The center design would be flanked by the little lotuses in circles, and then the border (and too frilly) stuff would wrap around the rest of the ankle/lower leg, kind of like a band, only in black like the rest and repeating evenly on both sides (unless you have ideas on making it look more organic and not so rigid and boring on a body part?)
This would be the center part:
But with a curly tip like this at the top:
The lotuses on either side in circles would be kind of like:
The borders came out way too dark with the camera, and I really love them but they make the whole thing look really busy and a little weird. Any advice you have would be a saving grace:
And then finally, I tried to paste little parts together on paintbrush tonight, but it just came out too big to fit properly and looking like crap. D'oh:
Meh.
That's what I've got until payday and scanner.
And if all this is too much junk to organize, let me know and I'll re-group it and stuff.
Thank you so much for your time, and help, and art, and everything!
