I used Katniss - Girl of Fire Sassy. Her dress and hair are in all shades of grey - C0 through C9 and 110. I colored light to dark, and went back and blended. The 110 is added to the deep shadows. Blacks are really hard. They tend to get shiny and streaky and gummy if you use too much ink - so you have to be very careful to make sure that you don't over saturate, or that you give it some time before layering. Also - for this one on her dress, I didn't blend as much as I usually do because of this - I left it a little streaky hoping to show more folds in the fabric. I added a bit of red just to give it a bit of contrast.
I hope you enjoyed it. The Sassy gals have some really cute inspiration for you. You can check it all out at the blog. If you enter you have a chance to win some wonderful images from Sassy Studio Designs. Keep in mind - there are some new images coming out in a bit - - WOO HOO.
Now this is a red carpet card for sure. All the highlights and shadow in that black dress are amazing
