Haydee

Since I attempted to comment on Heloise and Mercedes, I figure I'll also go ahead and do Haydee too. This is for all you haydee pics btw.

First off, even though this is not my favorite Haydee cosplay, you still make an utterly adorable Haydee. Probably not as serious in expression in this particular picture, though.

I like your styling for the hair. It works pretty well as a more realistic rendition of her very cartoony hair style. I do wish it was darker though. In "Gankutsuou- Haydee" it looks almost seafoam green. Even if the color isn't very faithful to her anime counterpart, it does go quite nicely with the rest of the outfit.

As for the dress, I honestly don't like it up close. I have issues explaining why though. I think it's because of how big and gaudy the gems looks or something. Ironically I think this works in your favor for far away pictures, since the details don't get lost like they do in more elaborate ones. Overall, I think you did a great job getting the dress to convey how grande Haydee looks during the opera scene. ("Night city is my favorite composition-wise and overall btw.)

(Oh yeah, and I love those earrings and necklace and am kinda jealous even though I would never wear something like that so it makes no sense. They are just so wonderfully shiny! )
