I meant to post this a while back but kept forgetting to get photos. Something that has been a great help for the style side of my project is realising what a great resource fashion magazines can be. They are full of high quality photos of a range of clothes and hairstyles but more than that the many of the photos, like my drawings seem to be very about the person as well, using poses and facial expression getting across an attitude and personality. The main issue is there's a lot of styles that I don't care about are included and there actually very few clothing/hair styles that i like (kind of alternative, androgynous look), I guess it will broaden my horizons when it comes to working in this are. An actual problem is an overeliance on photos, especially in these books where the photos already have all the visual information. I've talked more about this predicament throughout my blog already though.
