Tattoos So I successfully finished tattoos and accessories in time and completed the whole project. I just didn't have enough time these last few days to post progress updates. So, for the sake of keeping updates in chronological order, here are the tattoos.

Dress The dress is finished, and here is the result. Although I'm still not sure about the colors, so I might change them later when I make more progress with the project.
Probably the most difficult part of this whole dress operation was coming up with a cool pattern design. I tried many different ideas and finally decided to create a map-like pattern which represents the world around the astronomer. It starts with a ground layer, then a river, houses, stars in the sky, moon, and sun.

DressAfter spending some time in MD, wrapping, pinning, twisting, and turning a piece of a rectangle, I ended up with this dress. It still needs a little bit of cleaning here and there, but overall, it turned out better than I imagined.

Reference images and base character
As you can see from the references, I am using components from different cultures, but my goal is to make them unique to this character and to unify everything with an astronomy theme.
I also created a base character for this project. There is nothing fancy yet, but I can now move forward and start crafting the main components for this character. There will be four main components (dress, hair, tattoos, and jewelry). I will start with the dress and hair. Then I will have a better idea of how tattoos and jewelry should look like and where exactly everything should be.

Hello everyone. Here is my entry for this contest - Ancient Astronomer. I will be creating a realistic character that is obsessed with the stars, trying to discover everything there is to know about them. And here is a rough idea of what I have in mind:
