Ballerina Silhouette

Post by Emmylou »

This is for my nana's birthday, I managed about half an hour on it yesterday. It's the silhouette of a ballerina, created the chart myself from an image (not sure if it's a copyright issue but hopefully someone can advise me on that.) This is just one of her legs.

Not just a leg, but a leg and a foot! Good start. :applesauce:
Not sure on the copyright issue, I'm sure someone on here can advise.

I also don't know about a copyright issue. But I think the leg and foot are great so far. :applesauce: Clearly a ballerina is about to appear.

You would have to find out if the picture was copyrighted by the photographer.

Nice start.

I think everything about Jolie and Pitt is rediculous!!!!! She is such a snob in her interviews.

I agree. Both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are getting crazier and crazier!!! She looked absolutely ridiculous with her leg sticking out like that!!! But I guess any publicity is good publicity? I beg to differ......... Lovely design...I hope it is not a copyright infringement....it is a beautiful start!!!

I've nearly finished the bottom half of her skirt hopefully today I'll have the complete lower half of her body finished. My OH joked that when it's on the side it looks like a bird in flight.

I think looking at it from the front (not the side) it looks lovely. A great ballerina silhouette for sure and will be so pretty and elegant when completed. I love silhouettes.

Looking really good! You've managed to get good coverage of the black as well.

Loved the link to leg bombing, the Voldermort one is classic!!
