This is a remade custom from a old version of Yuna I made in 2005.....I look at my old one, and found myself looking at it very sickly. XD So for the sake of completeness for my current Final Fantasy custom collection, I felt it was necessary to remake a Summoner Yuna.

How she was made:
-Espresso pony hair styled with a curling iron
-High-quality material for her skirt, detail is acrylics, painted on with a toothpick, and pleated at the top. (I embellished the pattern by adding dots, lol)
-Beads are painted, sealed with gloss, and attached to her with wire. Her blue tassels are water nixie pony hair.
-Her orange flower is cut from ribbon, and the light cream orange details are cut from a separate piece of ribbon, and it's all out-lined in charcoal acrylics.
-The rest of her outfit is hand-sewn.


Now, I don't want anyone to misunderstand this....but this paraphrase of quotes drives me to improve every time I make a custom (I'll keep the source anonymous) :
"Mana, I stopped looking at your customs because they never improve. You just sit in your little chair, making the same lame over-cluttered customs over and over....and will most likely be making the very same customs well-past the age of 40. If you don't plan on ever improving, you might as well stop customizing."

However, if I was actually born yesterday, this probably would have actually driven me to stop customizing....however, my common sense tells me that improvement happens over-time, and no one should be expected to immediately improve over-night. :~/

With that food for thought, here's my old version from 2005:

The old one was made from recycled hair from a very old ugly doll. XD
Her orange flower is made from a ribbon, in which I made fail attempts to draw the detailing on with pen, and acrylics....and her beads are poorly-painted, over-sized and not sealed. XD
The materials for her fabric is in poor-quality...and I pretty much just scrounged up any white/navy blue material I could find around the house. The blue material is SO crappy in fact, the acrylics wouldn't take to the fabric no matter how many layers I tried putting on it LOL
And her body paint is very thick, the paint strokes are visible, and just over-all lumpy and not pleasant to touch. XD (and un-sealed.)
