Cinderella - 35 - HD

For some reason, that preview text turned into a Castlevania: Symphony of The Night reference, and now I'm picturing Dracuala throwing a dress that transforms whoever it hits.
Commentary
Naturally, prior to deciding on a dress for Tedd / Cinderella, I went on an epic research journey of historical fashion, fictional fashion, referenced my own personal, quite expensive book on fashion...
...And then instead I happened to be in a mall one day for various reasons and saw some fancy dresses I liked on display.
Now, this doesn't look quite like those, in part because the transition from the top to the bottom of the dresses were more subtle and gradual in a way that wouldn't really work in this style (or, if they did work, would take a prohibitively long time to get right in each panel).
I made Tedd's hair a slightly lighter value of grey due to their earlier plans to make it a more reddish purple. I THINK the result will be lighter, but I guess I'll find out when we see a color version of this Tedd (I feel committed to making a color sketchbook of Cinderella in this form eventually).

Heh. Many years ago I remember reading a story in which: - fabric enchanted to resist change (making it difficult to rip or stain), combined with - tailors whose specialty involved enchanting clothes to resize to always fit the wearer (and who had never used this particular enchanted fabric before) accidentally resulted in a dress that resisted being changed itself, and so changed the wearer to fit it instead. Which they first found out because one of their assistants and models started as a teenage boy... Oops.

I can think of two reasons a villain like Dracula would throw that dress: (a) He intends humiliation, or (b) he thinks it hinders fighting ability.
