Alice has always been one of my favorite fictional characters. For this competition I wanted to show a grown up Alice. Not a goth teenager (nothing against them but there are hundreds of goth teenage Alices in the internet). Not a 99-years old granny. My Alice is a grown up woman. Strong victorious successful person. The difference from classic versions to current one is dress design (more open but still in traditional color palette), hair design (its feels more light now. In Alice cartoons and games hair always tended to stick to shoulders). I also added elements of military gear - bracers, cape. And of cause - some things in the picture hint on her maturity as a woman. Now you can like Alice and not be a creep - she's fully grown woman).

Production. Everything started from custom 3D models in DAZ3D. I chose and tweaked the body. Then I went through many options for her dress. Then the pose was chosen. Lightning added. DAZ3D produced a nice CGI image which went to post-ptoduction in photoshop - adding background and some shadow effects. Then it went to image filters in Prizma and returned back to photoshop and it became ready for submission.
Hope you like it)
