I would have like to have seen [the shadows] them a little more defined
I had the shadows on a separate layer and messed with the intensity a lot. I was never fully satisfied with them (too dark, such as the flower shadows, made them look too much like more of her body showing. This was a judgement call.
I really tried to trace a realistic contour map of her body, allowing for hips, chest, face, etc. It was harder than I thought it would be. I tried to imagine what it would look like if she was in water on her back... where would the water come to, etc.

I'd like to see her "unphased".
Like an idiot, I didn't save the intermediate steps. I fully manipped her costume and then chopped it away.
