Alice Madness Returns part 2 first look!

Hello my Sweethearts!

How are you doing? How was your week? I hope you enjoyed previous rewards and are ready to see what we are cooking for you now.
The project we are working on post-production is Alice Madness Returns part 2. The first part came out great, but there was a big room for improvement in the face of many awesome images left untouched.
As always I hope the second part will make you satisfied with each image.
Here is the first look in Alice part 2. To be precise two first looks, dressed and undressed.

Fun fact. Patreon doesn’t allow you to use words which have any naughty or a bit controversial connotation in post text.  That’s why you need to go around and use similar in tone phrases. That’s how dressed/undressed part came out. )
 
Just a production fact. The Hobby Horse (weapon) prop was in fact a composite staff with a horse head. Basically you could assemble/disassemble it whenever you could. Which we did for certain shots where shorter weapon needed, but those shots didn’t end up in Alice part 1 and may appear in part 2.
Horse head also had removable ears, which you could attach with small magnets. BUT. It wasn’t a good decision in the long run, because magnets weren’t strong enough. So you should be careful not to drop an ear somewhere. On the set we did lose one ear and didn’t notice it. So for some images we needed to find head with an ear positioned in a similar angle, cut and paste in a production shot. Good thing it’s not a hard task to do. And good thing it was a rare occasion and mostly I was attentive on set.

Fun production fact. Almost all our costumes (with some exceptions when the model is bigger) are usually tailored using my real body sizes. Shoes too. And since most of my models are smaller than me in height, but similar in proportions, costumes fit with minor adjustments. But not the boots. Almost all our models were forced to wear larger shoes on set.
The Alice project was different. I managed to find a beautiful pair of boots on sale in the exact size the model wears. It was one of the rare times when the model could stand comfortably. )

By the way, shoes/boots are always the hard part of the costume. If a design is complicated it’s even harder. What cosplayers usually do is find base shoes/boots on sale and later add on top all design elements.

I hope you’ll enjoy the first looks. Especially at the end of working week.
Please have a great day and good rest!
