Ghost Bride

Inspired by what I consider to be a pretty cool album cover, I decided to try my hand at making a "ghost bride" type of character. I know, I know, I'm not the first, I'm not the tenth or the hundredth or probably even the thousandth person to think of this. In fact, when I went to the costume thread to request a tattered skirt (men get tattered kilts, so where's a tattered skirt for women?) I saw that someone had requested the same thing just a day or two earlier... for a ghost bride type of character, of course.

I think the concept might benefit from one of the more ragged/tattered capes (I'm not really a fan of the "bridal veil" that comes attached to a single hair style)... but anyway, here's what I came up with:

Ghost Bride 1
Ghost Bride 2 (closeup)

I used the tattered robe with tattered short sleeves over the bridal top and dress... nice effect I think. It's a shame I can't include a tattered skirt hem, or much in the way of tattered gloves and boots (thought I could do wraps on both I suppose).

I made her a ninja stalker, just because I still like the concept of ninja stalkers and now they're a bit more viable... plus I wanted to give her a weapon.

The hidden effect works really well for a nearly all-white ghostly character:

Ghost Bride 3

I'd be curious to see what other people have done along these lines, or what other suggestions people might have to achieve this kind of look.

Its a great design. Very cool and the hide really makes ut ghostly.

My only beef is that I am not to fond of all the skulls.

My version of a Ghost bride is viewable in the sig. ´Click on Banshee Bride.
The costume is before the wedding pack was available though. Perhaps I should try to fiddle with it now that there is a better selection of bridal stuff to choose from.
