Help with pants and shoes

[Marydh]

Hi.  These pants and shoes are driving me nuts.  Any feedback would be appreciated.
For that matter, any feedback on anything would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone.

Beautiful job Mary!

I believe the shoes may be pointing in a different direction?

Thanks Hannie,
You're right about the shoe.  I'll try to angle it more.
I was wondering how to get the shoes and pants
to look more realistic.  Do the shoes look to be the
right size?   Any pointers?
I'm going to try the veil again.  Not real happy with it.
Other than that.....

I think the bride would appreciate a slimmer waist.  ^-^

Mary, about the shoes:  I had to come up with a shoe in the last restoration I did, and I had no idea where to start.  I went to photos.com and downloaded a pair of dress shoes and used them as templates to get the shape right.  Just having something to look at really helps.  The photo resource web sites are a wonderful place to at least get an idea of shape, shading, etc.  I've used them for ears, clothing, positioning of body parts and the way they'd shadow their surroundings. 

Good luck.  You're doing great on this one.

Thanks GK.  I was going to stock.xchng  and they didn't have anywhere near the choices as
photo.com.
