WORK-IN-PROGRESS: Lorenz Hellman Gloucester Edition

the beginning of this thread is repeated bc i have been posting progress somewhere unfit oops

lorenz started off with some embroidery on march 19th. i did two versions of the satin shading on the petals and the latter is what i decided to go with!

on march 23rd, i gridded the breastplate and transferred the pattern over to swedish tracing paper. the breastplate design was modified slightly to be more flattering for glitz since lorenz has a weirdly short ribcage and long abdomen.

i vectored and broke apart the breastplate pattern into a home printable PDF between two streams on march 23rd & 24th. the pattern is available as a pay-what-you-want on our gumroad!

on march 31st, i got all the waistcoat embroidery vectored and prepped for digitizing, which i finished on april 1st. with all of the embroidery ready to test out, it was time to draft the waistcoat pattern!

drafting began on april 1st borrowing from last year& #39;s picnic leo shirt. the pattern for the bishop sleeves was digitized and altered to fit glitz& #39; tiny arms.

now i& #39;m caught up! to-day i combined a trace-over of lorenz& #39; in-game model with a basic shirt block to create a rough pattern for the waistcoat. i printed it out, then folded, pinned and cut it to be more flattering. i made a muslin of that modified pattern afterward to fit more.
