Krakatoa needs a new costume for the next story she appears in, and her physical appearance also needs a bit more work. I'm going to play up her sexual assertiveness a little more.

11th-century costumes, on the whole, don't exactly scream "Sexy" at you, but I think if you wear them like this, the message gets across. On the left, Viking outfit, based on *Laerad's blue and brown viking dress [link] but with the colour scheme altered to yellow and red with green trimming. On the right, a Slavic dress with apron, based on a picture in ~Maadob's scraps [link] . There was a lot of guesswork involved in my rendition of the items hanging from the belt in the Slavic dress, because it took me a while to realise that the reference picture, which I had found in a DA club gallery, was a scrap and there were other pictures showing the same dress in Maadob's scraps. I also still need to find out how exactly both belts are arranged and how the decorations on that drinking horn should look. Details like that got lost in the scaling and JPEG compression in the reference pics, although they are probably clear as day to the people who already know them.

Both dresses have embroidered bits near the hem. This complicates them a lot; even the simplified version shown here is really too much for regular use in a comic. But the dresses do need something there; they can't be left plain.

I may do another version with the colour schemes swapped around, so when commenting, do separate comments on the colours from comments on the dresses themselves Update: Yellow and Red Slavic dress here: [link]
