Dash Of Basil: Character

Characters and Costume

I love to create characters and then make them come to life.

Here are some shots of characters I've created, first in a book or film script and then brought to life through video/film and photography. I designed the costumes and in some cases made the jewelry.

Fairy Undead

In my current project, Fairy Undead, a group of fairy commandos is searching for what they consider a dangerous menace to society, a fairy that has been accidentally brought back from the dead.

One of the fairy commandos, Red, moving in on the menace under the cover of night.

This is Alice, the undead fairy...

The Fairies of Camp Fae

This is Ishke, one of the fairies of Camp Fae with a strong aquatic influence

This is Rorie, one of the fairies in my Camp Fae book 2, The Pixitres

This is Snezhana, Queen of the Snow Pixies
From Camp Fae book 2, The Pixitres

This is Twig, a main Camp Fae character in both books

I really like how her costume turned out.

Sword Fight

I worked with a martial arts instructor to choreograph a sword-fighting scene for one of my videos. Here is my costuming session with the two young fairies.
