So, references and moodboard for my precious boys

So, for Charles-Henry...I will use this for hair reference :

So, gravures of executioners from the XVIIIth century Paris, were the executioner is most likely Charles-Henry Sanson, do show similar hairstyles...So basically long hair with floofy bangs. They are so cute.

Now, I will add my OCs Barthélemy (without a surname) and Jacques Blondel.

So, Barthélemy is a character I imagine with black hair, translucent yet healthy skin with rosy cheeks and freckles and warm brown eyes.

Now, he is currently in the care of nobility, but is of yenish roots, and his adopter plans to use him as a spy, so I think he should have rather short hair. His hair texture would be somewhat corser, and thus have a bit more volume.

Jacques Blondel is actually working class, and I think I'll use pictures of peasants to base him on. He has straw-like blond hair.

Something like this :

Yeah...I have found this gravure online.

Now...For lighting....You know it will be sad and grey.

Moulage d’une robe à l’anglaise vue à l’exposition Fashion Forward 3 siècles de mode aux Arts Décoratifs.

Grâce à une amie qui a mannequiné la robe durant un stage là bas, j’ai pu avoir de belles photos pour m’aider.

Ma réalisation est loin d’être parfaite mais c’est une bonne base pour un futur costume !

Je me suis aidée de coupes du Janet Arlnod et d’autres livres.
