* A texture from the Steampunk Texture Pack by =cloaks was used on the shiny brassish part of the dress.

I had this looked over by my dad, my dad, because none of ya'll were online. So, uh, thanks to him!

Oh, dear.

It's like some kind of optical illusion: if you look at the dress it looks too short, but if you look at Kris he looks the right height. So then I think, well, is it that his torso isn't that big? But if you squint, you realize it totally is. At this point I'm just going to conclude that the problem is the boobs and leave it at that. Cross-dressing is hotter without fake boobs anyway, imo. (Not that you were likely to find a good photo of a women's Victorian costume WITHOUT boobs. So it's not your fault.)

I looked for steampunk crossdressing that was a little more androgynous and... nothing. Nothing! This needs to be rectified.

The boobs came as is, I wash my hands of them.

Although the fact that I could find male to female steampunk crossdressing at all is pretty cool.

And now I'm wondering if there's something in my Men in Skirts book I can scan and use.

Dammit, this was supposed to be a minimum effort project.

What a thing. Because Adam. Yeah

Also, the smiling throws me. Adam so serious; Kris, smiling for camera.

But loads of awesome, still.
