Darna

...
just though I'd take a crack at redesigning Darna's Costume... more on the details actually
change the Tiara and her top, belt, and boots

the top was a bit tough, because of the stars.
I wanted to get rid of them, but I can't, because of the balance when colored, and I shouldn't because, because it's one of darna's identifying detail. I grew up seeing too much illustrations with stars on breasts as humorous depictions or as erotic suggestions... once saw a caricature of a mermaid that had a pair of tiny starfishes clinging to just her nipples

So I thought I'd slant the stars outwards from center. That way at first glance, at some angles, the stars won't look like stars, or at least immediately recognized as stars... I guess it worked... at least to me

Hope you like it
