    1/3/5 are just outstanding, Nik. Love the implied movement in 3, and that in 5 you see smooth curves - she could be nude or not and it doesn't matter because positioning and angle are so sensual.

    I love that although these are nudes, they're about organic form and shape than nudity as such (a lot of yours deliver on that front, of course, but you know what I mean). Really like these.

    3, 4 and 5 are brilliant, thanks for sharing. Is that chiffon your favorite due to color?

    Thank you Trudy! iloveyou.gif

    Yes, correct. I have seven different pieces of them (red, navy, green, light blue, off-white, mixed colors, etc) but I found this particular orange piece to be the most versatile and especially good for sunsets (CTO, wink-wink).

    Great job as usual Nik! bowdown.gifbowdown.gifbowdown.gif They all look great, but I'd have to say #1 is my favorite, followed by #4.
