Orange Sherbert
Orange sherbert..because the dress gives me the craving for those orange sherbert popsicles with vanilla ice cream in the middle *licks lips*

This is my submission for the Catwalk Collab

When I saw this picture I absolutely ADORED the dress and was determined to vexel it. Mind you, I have NEVER really vexeld clothing, because I pretty much hate and suck at it :p But this dress was really fun to do. Took me a crap load of time to do it, but eh..I think it's worth it.

I really don't like the lips, but after redoing everything but the dress 432897 times, I just left them as they were. My first time doing a whole head of hair from scratch & I found a new technique for doing it (way more easier than how I was doing it before) and I'm still trying to perfect it, for now..I like the hair, but I think it needs more improving.

This is my most favorite vexel up to date (not that I have that many anyway) but yea. Hope you like it! CC is welcome as always.

Total Layers: (around 1000 or so.. I had to merge towards the end because my comp kept lagging, but the dress alone has 867 layers)

Total Time: 3-4 days on and off.

Full Size: (PLEASE VIEW :D ) Here

Original (Adriana Lima): Here

edit/ I fixed the nose, some shading on some spots and the hair a bit :)

I know this might sound weird but... I love her left hand in the big version. It's so awesome.

EDIT: NO!!! Her right hand, our left.

Reply from Angie

Thank you :)

Nice work. I really love that dress! I think the hair is more appropriate for a frontal view, which is probably why it looks a little weird now.

Yes, this is a huge improvement! The dress turned out amazing. I don't like how the right side of the hair look, but other than that everything is great!

I think this is a really great improvement, the shading is so nice and the colors are amazing, especially on the dress. Ok I love the dress, I keep scrolling back up to it to look at it again.. ahh soo pretty. I just realized how amazing the arm and hand looks too.. it kind of gets overshadowed by the beautiful dress but it's all so great.
Go to the store and get me some orange sherrrrrberrrrt, lol what is that from? Austin powers? It reminded me of that :P
Reply from Angie
rofl, I think it's from Austin Powers :p I <3 sherbert

Thanks for the compliments, I probably focused the most on the dress, when I started it I was like DSNBAJ#@@!! I'm never gonna pull this off(I kept relooking the original size and started to freak because of how much there was), then after about 300 layers it got to where I was doing the same thing over and over again :p

Thanks again though, I really appreciate it :D

the hair and facial expression make her look like a barbie doll! ahaha...``P you've done such a wonderful job with everything in this vexel. i especially like the orange thing on her wrist. ``D
Reply from Angie
lol..I know, she has a super serious look :p
Thanks! The orange thing on her wrist, I basically put that there cause her hand and wrist were not 'connected' I guess you could say, so I had to put something there to hide it. lol, so I drew that on :D

meh..now that I look at it more, I'm finding mroe things I need to fix :x

Yay for your first favorite! I think it's great for your first tie vexeling clothes and a full head of hair, I would have had no idea. The skin looks really smooth too. The only thing is the nose, something seems a tiny bit off. But other than that, great.
Reply from Angie
Thanks!
Yea..I think I made the nose look too dark :p Her facial skin was actually darker before, then I added more layers on top and highlighted everything but the nose :x I'll prob fix it in a min. Thanks though!
