Dear Samurais!
This set is finally out! Please be at $30 and above to pick it :) I thought I had released it on my timeline but I must have forgotten as I've been very busy the last few days.
I can't wait to hear feedback from those who pick it <3
Some insight of the mental process on my experimentation on set building for this shoot and Ishtar:
The way I build sets around me and what I show them to be, especially my Ishtar one, is not necessarily as much about what would be visually accurate to the source material (though that definitely is a big influence too and I do decide to rely on that at times), but also an extension of the character themselves. I try to stage it like you would see a painting, I want every detail to be cohesive with the character and atmosphere I want to convey as a whole. I find it deeply satisfying that every detail that you can see is decided upon.
It is a good reflection of how my mind works, I have a hard time isolating ideas and concepts, rather, I often think of things in a confusing, interconnected matter, where ideas can not be easily separated to be viewed alone. I find by doing so, it takes away the true meaning and I guess literally, the context.
I've really enjoyed the process of building the sets lately, I will definitely keep doing this when I think it is appropriate and when I have the resources!
Love,
Geisha
