Try searching for the clothing you want as though it were for sale - often it is, and you'll get pictures as well. You can also try searching for specific costume patterns, since they always have at least a drawing, if not a photo, on the front of the pattern package. Anything specific you're looking for?

I've been searching for a while now. XD
I can find more women's clothing than men's clothing though. And far more western clothing than eastern clothing, which is what I want. D:

Ah. Eastern style. No wonder you're having such a hard time. d: Love that stuff, but I can never find it. Hm. Even if you do find Eastern stuff, it's more likely to be modern and female. That's a conundrum. Anything I can do to help?

I think I'm going to improvise based on textual information and some other drawings.
If I wasn't so concerned about accuracy, my life would be so much easier. XD;

Deviantart usually has some decent ones if you look hard enough... It depends on the program you're using, though.

I started mine but I've been busy doing things like laundry, cleaning, and grocery shopping. HOW DOES THAT TAKE SO MUCH TIME? T___T
I don't wanna be a housewife. emo

Yeah... Sometimes it goes faster than others, and you can pick and choose how much you want to do each day, but it's kind of a constant thing, housework. d: I kinda looked forward to it, though, and then learned that he's had his heart set on being a stay-at-home dad all his life. ... I'm not certain if I'm going to let him do that. He needs to get off his lazy a** and stick with a job, even if he doesn't like it, damn it. >.<;;;

>> Woah. Where did that rant come from? Err... Right. Art. And lack of time to do it. >>;; How far along are you? I can keep cheering! *menaces you with pompoms*

Well I probably wouldn't mind it if that was "my job" but I can't stand the thought of not helping bring in some money. I know I'm weird. XD;

I basically have sort of an underpainting. And I think I need to redo the background part. D:

If it helps Szen, I think you'd make a wonderful house-wife. I bet you look great in an apron, & sweatpants, making breakfast.

Yay, my submission is finally under way......

Now if I could just find some tutorials on how to make someone look older in a picture, instead of all these "perfect skin!11!" tutorials DA is infected with. Basically, I need to make a young person look ancient.User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. I have no idea how to make age/liver spots convincingly.

The thing with me, I guess, is that if I have the luxury to remain at home and do housework all day as a job, that means that my husband is bringing in enough for me to not have to take a money-making job of my own. Housework is just as taxing as a job in the workplace, but it's somewhat more comfortable for me to work at home. I know everything is in its proper place, everything is as clean as I want it (which is cleaner than how he wants it) and if we have unexpected company, I'm not ashamed of my house. confused

Oo... Layers. that's probably why your paintings look so good. XD *shakes pompoms at you* I suck at coming up with cheers. *laughs*

Aging, hm? ... *ponders* That would be difficult... I'll do some poking about if you like, Rocket. I'll PM you with anything I find.

Rocket, you could try having them lay out in the sun for a few days.
