STARDOLL FASHION WEEK

Oh man, it's been such a while since the last time I posted, right? I've been doing so many little references lately, specially some mini projects but something I was really focusing on was Stardoll Fashion Weeks!
No, I wasn't making a collection. I had three requests for it's opening cocktail party. I can say I am happy with how it turned out, with 5 days of hard work over details and trying to make customers happy with the final result - I did it! And here they are;

I've been planning to do a graphic from this Chanel collection for a while, but when kionikc requested it for SFW, I finally got  a chance for it! I am happy with this graphic! I love what I've done with details and I can say it took me a long time to finish, but I believe it was worth it.

At the very first sight, I wanted to scream and shout my sould out of my body. I hated this dress. But as the customer was my friend and he really liked the dress, I said why not give it a try. And I can not explain how much fun I've had doing it! I gave most of time to the glitter parts and I enjoyed making them. That was also worth of trying!

My last customer went for something more minimalistic. I personally love Alexander Wang and this dress, so I couldn't doubt making it. Most of time went in top part details but I am happy with the final result. I feel like I could have put more time into hair, but it's done now, and my customer is happy, so am I!

"And my jazz collection's rare..."

Hello! ˆ-ˆ
After all the hurry and craziness to make outfits for the Stardoll Fashion Week, I finally have time to post this graphic I finished on the beginning of the last week:


It was requested by Luiza (blinnes) and I felt in love with the reference she sent me for that graphic. It was so vintage and cute! I had a lot of ideas for the background in the moment I saw it. I personally love the overall result, but I'm still not sure about the colors. Well, the customer loved the work, so I'm happy with it.
What do you think?

Hey guys!!! It has been so long since I posted something here. How have you been?
So, I don't play stardoll anymore but I'm still around! I'm not going to stop making graphics, the only difference is that now I charge in RM (which sadly means I can only accept requests paid with my country's money) You guys can keep up with me on INSTAGRAM @deborah_aylanne (FOLLOW)
Ok, today I'm doing something different, this is a graphic I made of someone I know in real life.
I hope you guys enjoy it :)


PS: Yep, that's his number!

Latest graphic


This is the latest graphic I've done and it was an special request because it was like a gift from a girl to her best friend because of her birthday! This kind of requests got me so exited tbh! 
I'm kind of satisfied with the hair or at least with most of it. The shading of the hand is in my opinion just great lol.
The hardest part was trying to make the -believe it or not- flowers on her lap.. Some lasso tool here and there plus some photoshop's brushes.. 
I would appreciate if you leave a comment if you have some critics, say what you think about it or tick a box.

Ciao!

Back From The Dead

"Rafael Grant ... I've heard that name before I think."

Yeah, that Rafael dude used to be a designer and a contributor of this blog. He took a break from Stardoll because he was a flop towards the end he had some very personal issues going on.

Oh wait, did you say Rafael Grant?! ... that's me!


Yes, you heard right.
I AM BACK!


It's been quite a long time since I last posted something on TGV (my last post was on 27 June 2014 to be exact). But I broke out of my grave and I'm back to take back my crown and slay you and here to stay!



... and I've brought a new graphic with me as well!


Just a tiny headshot. Nothing too special.
But you can definitely expect something bigger for the Stardoll Fashion Week.

It's gonna be fancy!


That's all for now. See you on the red carpet at Stardoll Fashion Week!


Love y'all!
xoxo Rafael

Ps. Sorry for the gif overkill but I simply had to!
