HONEY'S BALL OUTFIT IS DONE!!! I had SO much fun with this. Combining the themes was a blast, and I'm really proud of how I managed to do it!
I took a lot of inspiration from the bulky silhouettes and detailed patterns of Carnevale, then combined it with honeycomb and salted chocolate to include the themes of sweets/decadence.
Watch your pockets!

Denizens of the fantroll community, please put your hands together for CARNEVALE CONFECTIONS: A BLOODSTAINED MASQUERADE, the winning tied theme of the 12th Perigee Ball of 2023!
This theme combines both Sogno Dell’Arlecchino and Blood & Candy into one! However, you are not obligated to use both themes in outfits for your trolls, or neither of them at all; feel free to mix and match at will, or do something else entirely!
Only trolls wishing to enter for Grand Couturier must match the theme - or one of them, at least - as best they can. This restriction does not apply to ball royalty.
Circuses on Alternia are well-acquainted with blood of all hues spattered against their tent walls; now nihilistic revelry and sweet carnevale fare is entwined with the gleaming, elegant mystique of rainbowdrinkers, those fearsome creatures of the day.
Kilran Barbas meant only to enact his vision of bloody decadence, but a visit from a matesprit’s distant fuchsia relation (and his blank check) has compelled him to combine his plans with the old clown’s desire for a beautiful carnevale event. He does want his mansion’s picturesque cliff and lake fixed, and he doesn’t feel like footing the bill from last sweep’s explosion all by himself.
So a deal has been struck, caegars have changed hands, and now the undead and the mirthful go hand in hand, all indulging in their own delights beneath the chandeliers of the Alternian Yule Ball.
Here is a pinterest board to assist with aesthetic options you may find helpful for this theme!
>:0) HONK!!!!!!

Aelynn is ready for the ball! The result of blood, sweat and tears (both mine and hers), and now I'm gonna go let my hand collapse and potentially fall off my body!
But that's not all, because I put my whole brain into this design, so click the read more to see ME EXPLAIN NEARLY EVERY SINGLE DESIGN DECISION I MADE AND WIPS
themes that were kept in mind
CARNEVALE CONFECTIONS: A BLOODSTAINED MASQUERADE
Sogno Dell’Arlecchino + Blood & Candy
inspiration focuses were chocolates, vampires (blood and gothic), carnevale (harlequins), decadence and detail, and Italy. just. in general.
DRAFT 1, sketch
writing, from top left to bottom right
makeup is carnevale inspired, maybe jade for vampire/rainbow drinker
ribbon-like chocolate gift decoration (in hair)
drips - blood? chocolate? (necklace)
wavy hair to invoke pouring chocolate
cream filling or icing (around the hem of bust)
rhinestones in hair and in tulle for decadence
tulle (bustle) -> make it lace, more common in carnevale costumes
caramel drizzle, small jewels as 'salt' (decorating the gloves)
corset VERY IMPORTANT for vampiresque vibe
subtle pattern (on the corset)
like little maltesers (on the bustle)
alternating black and white (skirt panels)
the dress shape itself was inspired by several looks from 'salon du chocolat' fashion shows, however this was abandoned
DRAFT 2, lines (attempt 1)
switched to a long skirt for a more classic silhouette, skirt drafts
based on various cake decoration methods, asked in servers which i should go with and then tried to merge the chocolate chips and the icing for maximum decadence, however
chocolate chips were abandoned due to looking somewhat messy
some rhinestones were placed to replace them much later
LINEWORK, attempt 2 (i redrew the entire thing with a thinner lineweight)
as well as the things written here, i switched out the hairpiece from chocolate squares to unturned fangs and roses
i also included the rest of the moodboard i was using in this image so you can see the other things i was inspired by
COLOUR DRAFTS
tried roughly placing colour in this phase, wanted to have a bright lilac main colour to balance out the dark details and hair, since carnevale costumes tend to be extremely bright and eye-catching, tried to avoid using completely desaturated colours
decided to put the gradient at the bottom of the dress because putting it at the top made it look like it wasn't one piece with the bust, wasn't really happen with the contrast between the leg ribbons and the lilac however
part way through colouring i decided i hated the lilac, tried to darken it a little, still didn't like it, turned it black
decided to hand-draw a tonne of embroidery for the corset because most carnevale dresses have heavy detail in texture and lace pattern
the front two panels are paisley/plant-inspired and then the panels on the back which is then echoed for the translucent torso piece are geometric patterns based off of commedia dell'arte costumes for the character trope 'harlequin'
the torso piece also has small unique embroidered flowers in each of the larger empty spaces because seriously these carnevale outfits go so heavy on patterns
more italian gothic architecture, this hatched pattern has a multiply layer depicting the Duomo of Siena onto the fan, which is a fascinating piece of architecture that spanned centuries to finish

Hi, I made my very first Yule Ball art for my tumblr-poll official Blog Guy, Odarem,! I know it's simpler as far as looks go, but I'm very proud of it.. The Lineless style and effects are meant to make him match This Piece of his girlfriend, Mel, who he's gonna be going with,
#12th perigee ball 2023#my art#odarem art#12th perigee ball#homestuck oc#fantroll#fantroll oc#homestuck fantroll#the look is inspired by chocolate (white and milk chocolate specifically..) the red (while super bright) is inspired by both blood#and by like raspberry fillings and stuff in some chocolates..

Kinesa returns to the yule ball with some very carefully chosen motifs incorporated into her carnevale outfit. A strikingly small amount of jade on her this sweep.
And where are the boys? Hopefully they're in the masked crowd somewhere...
(Close up of her jewelry and mask:)

Aniora's ready for Yule! Leaning into the intimidating sun-associations that rainbowdrinkers have, the colorful and plentiful patterns of certain clown sects, and of course some of her favorite parts of the carnival- bells. Hand made special by herself, of course.

I lied, It's not top 3. We got last minute votes typing up the 3rd place spot, so now it's top 5
ONE DAY TO VOTE, DON'T FORGET TO CAST IT FOR THE BALL
