Pristine

by Sabina Takakura on April 28, 2009

Pristine!

I got the idea in my head to make robes of concealment with ruffles. Dunno why, but it was there. So I ran with it.
This dress ended up having a asian flair to it, which I kinda like. The lighter fabric is linen, with silk accents. It seemed like the perfect springtime dress for a young free woman.

Ella

by Sabina Takakura on April 26, 2009

Gettin back into my groove here. I just moved back to Illinois from California, so I will hopefully have plenty of time to expand my line. The first part I’m working on is getting more gowns out.
So here.. is Ella.

Syngen, my good friend and creator of Sakinah and I were chatting while I made this. I sent her a pic and said “Look, I’ve made a princess gown.” She laughed and said I should name it Ella, from Ella Enchanted. So I did!

It’s made of soft silk duiponi, gold brocade, sweeping swags of fabric and to top it all off.. a scarf on the head as well as a crown. I got that idea from the costumes of Atia from HBO’s Rome.
Hope you like it, it’s my best one yet!





And here is the RFL recolor! Available in my main store.

Turian

by Sabina Takakura on April 26, 2009

Been slackin on updating this blog, I know.
Here is Turian, the last release for Camisk Week.
This is as book accurate as I can make it – the newer version of the books that is. It’s a bit loved and grungy, but I promise to make nicer versions of it when I have a bit of time.

Only 150!




And of course – the RFL recolor. All proceeds go directly to the relay for life.

Bloom

by Sabina Takakura on April 6, 2009

I’ve been slackin in updating this blog, I know!

So the fantastic 4 and I (Dream from Fantasia, Delora from Haven, and Talyn from Analise) were goofing off as usual, when we tossed the idea around about making something fun.. something that might not be usable in roleplay, but first and foremost.. something fun for ME to make.

Here in the Bay, there is a huge rockabilly culture. Car shows, pencil skirts, red lipstick and pompadours abound. I’ve also been watching the movie “Cry Baby” by John Waters quite a bit. It inspired me to do something pinup-esque.

So here you have.. Bloom.
I’m so proud of my work here. I can skim over this blog and amaze myself in how far I’ve gotten with my skills. It took me nearly three years, but I’ve done it. All of this is hand painted!
I hope you like it as much as I liked making it.




And as always – until the RFL is over, an exclusive recolor. Drop in any of my stores to find it in a vendor.
