Aztec Princess

A custom order from the lovely ~zoxchilt3, here is my second Aztec Princess Deridoll, inspired by this beautiful work from a fellow deviant, [link]

Isn't she stunning?
The beading on the dress and headdress was a real challenge as I'm more accustomed to small scattered clusters or long curved lines. This sort of angular patterns were a first.
There's plenty of room for improvement (oh, symmetry, why do you elude me so?!), but I'm quite proud of myself here.

And the feathered headdress! God, I love feathers! I love birds as the beautiful animals they are, but I can't help but go "Hmmmm, what lovely craft supplies you have there, my flying friend..." whenever I see one, like the hopeless supply addict that I am.
