I recently did a shoot with Wandering Eyebubble (MM #1074809) on a Miou Takaya concept and I'm just so damn pleased with the results!

This was the concept picture he approached me about:

I agreed I could do it—I had a white corset that would work perfectly, and I've done cosplay-type shoots before, though only my own cosplays. This was entirely the photographer's concept, but we did tons of collaboration in fleshing it out—for instance, I've taken courses in nursing, so I knew what sort of medical supplies would work best and I could wrap the gauze in proper bandaging crisscross style; we had an entire back-and-forth conversation as I experimented with what would work best for the stitches—and just, all that creativity and effort coming together over months of correspondence and communication to finally shoot and get such awesome results...! I'm so incredibly proud of what we created, and I just want to share it with everyone. It's that amazing feeling of "I just love it when a plan comes together!"

And I just LOVE the way this turned out, the complicated tangle of limbs... and I've always been careful with my pale skin, but the almost corpse-like quality my paleness gives this one photo has me in shivers of delight. Why I'm so delighted to look half dead, I can't really say... but this, this shoot is what I love about modelling. Creativity and talent and hard work all combining to make something beautiful together!
