Three Blind Mice

The colored version of Tatiana, Ivan, and Olga.

The title comes from the fact that all three of them are all 'blind' in different ways. Tatiana is a bit too caring, and is oblivious to Ivan's cruelty. (Until he ruins her garden, that is.) Ivan doesn't understand that his oppressive actions and attitude is hurting those he deems his 'friends'. Olga is extremely vain and obsessed with money, and is blind to the fact that Ivan is only manipulating her.

Since these three are cousins, I wanted them to look a bit similar, so Tatiana has Ivan's hair color and large nose, while Olga has his cold eyes.
The reason I made Tatiana look more like Ivan than Olga is because before Muscovy emerged, Kievan-Rus' thrived. (Haha, historical references are fun~)

Also, Tatiana and Olga's names are references to Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna Romanova and Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna Romanova. Ivan's name references Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible.

...Originally, Tatiana was going to wear a dress with a belt just underneath her chest, but I decided to make it a shirt with an extremely high-waisted skirt. ^^

Olga's outfit is also a dress shirt and skirt combo~

*Tatiana Pristanskaya, Ivan Korovichenko, and Olga Petrovna belong to me.*
