It's been so long since I updated that I almost forgot how.

My first bellydance facepaint test. The inspiration was a mix of the design on the bra/belt, Sylvia Ji's art (specifically her "Native" piece), and umakoo's fanart of Jotun Loki.

Posing with my zills [finger cymbals]. I almost always do a white base with my faces, but my mom didn't like it; next time, I think I'll try a pale peach/beige for the base so it doesn't contrast so much with the rest of my skin. I think I'll also paint a straight line over the eyes without the peak at the centre, and get rid of the lip lining.

A close-up of one of the zills, back when it was all shiny and new and before the elastics were sewn in. The zills are Saroyan's student Small Grecian cymbals.
