The Ottoman’s wife

The Ottoman’s wife is the latest addition to the Concept Art gallery, the last of the four main characters to be added. Putting together a plausible Arabic steampunk ensemble was tough—corsets are right out, and goggles make her look like a pilot. In the end we went with a Moroccan-style djellaba, updated with some utility pockets and hoodie drawstrings.

There’s also an indoor outfit in the works, but the hair is proving difficult to model.

  1. Nice! Well thought out.

  2. DWard! Your works are really wonderful! As regaurds the hair… would she wear it up, or in a twist or simply chop it really short? Something short could add to the punk vibe… that it is covered when outside could be useful too?
