This month, our Hump Day Hop Hottie, Alison, challenged us to "goth"-up our Bombshells. Well, if you know me and my style, this is WAY out of my comfort zone, but, I gave it a try...and here is what I came up with...
A close-up:
I wasn't quite sure how to go about "gothing her up", but I decided to color her skin a very light gray (sort of "zombie-ish"). The black under her eyes came about because as I was coloring the image, an Alice Cooper song came on the radio...For some reason I'm thinking black with red are goth colors, but I'm not quite sure! ;) I also followed this month's Bombshell Sketch for this card.Now, head on over to the fabulous Milo's blog to see what she's come up with!! Thanks for hopping with us!!!
Okay, here's the entire blog roll- just in case you get lost! :)

ReplyDeleteI really like the Alice Cooper makeup and yes black and red are definitely goth colors. Only colors in my wardrobe for 9 years.
ReplyDeleteThe red, black and gray are perfect and I love the nod to Alice Cooper. Aren't challenges just the best for stretching our comfort zones a bit.
