I am excited to have completed this photo project that I envisioned long ago. With ItIsKnown black scale armor being the centerpiece, I put together a look that is inspired by my favorite fictitious villains. Whilst still being my own creation. What I enjoy most about fashion is feeling that I am creating a persona from it, so the garb does the story telling, not so much me wearing it. It's up to each individual who views this photoset to assume their own story or association on the character, red embers, and the dry, dead environment.
Spontaneously decided to animate one of the photos using the animation technique I devised as a teen. Altering each frame by frame in Photoshop! I'm sure there is an easier, more modern way to animate, but I prefer my basic method. It reminds me of traditional animating.
I went a little editing-crazy with these photos, why not have fun? I illustrated the scale armor to be reflecting a mysterious red light, which is the source of the embers.
Looking misplaced standing in this candid photo in comparison to the fantasy editing
