Afghan Bride: Work in Progress

I've been working on this illustration off and on, whenever I have the free time. I wanted to post progress of course! I started adding details to the dress. I'm planning on doing a series, as soon as I finish this one of course. The Afghan culture is a really beautiful one full of colorful cute dresses and beautiful dances, and I'd like to capture those into illustration form!
