Note: WORKFLOW and raw pics in the comment section

Hi Everybody.
Since I don't have Marvellous Designer, I thought of giving up from the beginning and to not join this contest. However, I like challenges that let me learn new things, so, maybe in an alternative way, here I am.
I planned to create an outfit to sell for Daz (if I figure out how to do that, lol), so I first chose Genesis Femal Model 8.1 to wrok on.

Let's start from the idea. I like opposites. I wanted to create an elegant outfit, but trying to imagine that in a dystopian world. How should it be? A world where there's not clean oxygen, where the poor are poorer and rich people are those who are into weapons commerce. So, a dress who shouts "YES, I AM!", I'm a powerfull daughter of a mercenary. A dress, however, who looks at the past, as it often happens where thing go wrong in the worst possible way.
So, that's the result: a dress made in "ancient" weapons, with a gasmask covered in diamonds.

Remember when during the Covid people start buying fashion masks? Well, I imaged the same thing: being fashion in a ruined world.

I used my personal Bambie model for the render.

Now I'm posting in the comments all the screenshots of my workflow. Thanks for your attention and good luck you all!
