Perhaps the most iconic part of the Chinese New Year is the performance of Lion and Dragon dances—and today's theme asks you to create a look that emulates the vibrant colors, energy, and aesthetics of these dancers! The lion dance is the one many people think of first when it comes to these dances: it is a two-person dance performed in a single lion costume, often styled like a colorful version of China's many stone lions. In contrast, the dragon dance is performed by many dancers, who lift the dragon costume’s head and serpentine body on long poles. We definitely recommend checking out the wikipedia articles for [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion_dance#Regional_types][color=#AF1710]Lion dance variations[/color][/url] or [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_dance][color=#AF1710]Dragon dances[/color][/url] not only for inspiration, but also just because they're super cool!

Daily Highlights

fig's personal favorite scry was SingingDragon's redwood tree for its beautiful choices both visually (the spring koi tert matches beautifully with the multigaze) and in theme interpretation (redwoods are a beautiful choice to represent the both the imagery and virtues of the theme)

and two favorite outfits, the first one from Vosmikot -- the layering of the bamboo sash and sedge hat is cleverly done (...it helps a lot that the sash's antlers are small enough that you can buy them as a singular antler rather than a pair), and I love a good harmonious. use of multiple apparel sets.

[b]Theme:[/b] Lion Dancers [b]Entry Description:[/b] In looking for references, I saw some purple and blue lion dancers, and I felt inspired! I love the bright blue-purple range of the color wheel. I chose an Aether hatchling because I remember seeing this video a while ago of lion dancers doing some sort of gymnastics or agility course, and I thought a little moth baby would encapsulate that flexibility, while the tail hides the extra legs that would make it slightly inaccurate. Jupiter was the best fit for the undulating pattern of the costume, and Flair felt like a fun reference to fireworks. The Scales tert was actually the first decision I landed on, since it captures those big ol' eyebrows so well. I credit Kesslion for inspiring me to use Swirl eyes!

Entry Description: In looking for references, I saw some purple and blue lion dancers, and I felt inspired! I love the bright blue-purple range of the color wheel. I chose an Aether hatchling because I remember seeing this video a while ago of lion dancers doing some sort of gymnastics or agility course, and I thought a little moth baby would encapsulate that flexibility, while the tail hides the extra legs that would make it slightly inaccurate. Jupiter was the best fit for the undulating pattern of the costume, and Flair felt like a fun reference to fireworks. The Scales tert was actually the first decision I landed on, since it captures those big ol' eyebrows so well. I credit Kesslion for inspiring me to use Swirl eyes!
