knights on the oblong table

ok, yesterday sgt paul asked me to design some costumes for AHM 08. he's in charge of the water point there and he needs to decorate it. so he thought of maybe some costumes to be worn by some willing men. he was asked to come up with 2 designs; one for the Archer and another for the Knight.

the archer i managed to come up with three designs; Roman drapery, Robin Hood in tight, tight tights and a Sang Nila Utama-esque design ( they have archers to you know! )... he liked the roman drapery one. but i prefered the sang nila utama one; more pretty! hahaha

anyways, as for the knight, i was cracking my head over what to design for it, when an idea came to me while i was flipping through L'officiel... how about newspapers ( we have to use recycled materials ) and LACE? that'll be so cool! so i came up with the first design that incorporates lace into it.

as for the next design, i was thinking of something like a Napoleon and Josephine design... so here it is...last one, and my most favouritest, is the Rose of Versailles design. its suppossed to be androgynous, pretty, masculine and romantic, all at the same time. in short, it looks like a manga character.ok ok, i know all the models that i drew were women. but they are suppossed to be for men ok? don get too overly confused...
