Comparison Original Design VS Redesign of The little crooked tale.
Hello, I recently started reading this webcomic, it is very good but I think it deserves more love.
I adore the Cinderella designs, she is my favorite original Disney princess along with Belle.
They managed to make the princesses' clothes consistent with the era in which they lived but preserving the magic of fantasy.
😔If only live action did the same.

AU where Eleanor is the first female Dundrasil royal to spend six years at Angri-La. She becomes Grand Master Pang's favourite pupil. Rumor has it, Pang personally taught Eleanor how to wield the Naughty Stick.
Eleanor fights by Irwin's side as they make their way through Dundrasil Castle as the monsters invade. She barely survives her could've-been-death, and ends up in the village of Cobblestone, and finds her son. She raises him with Amber and Chalky. The Luminary now has two moms.
Eleanor decides to join her son on his journey in her own goal of avenging Irwin and her father and Dundrasil, and ends up just being missed by Hendrik and Jasper. After learning about Carnelian's betrayal and finding Cobblestone in ruins, she disguises herself.
She becomes the mom to the group—even to Sylvando. She's the first to put the pieces together about Sylvando's identity but doesn't say anything because it's not her secret to tell.
Eleanor gets a tearful reunion with her father and Jade. Rab is all choked up and thanking the Goddess for not taking his precious daughter. Eleanor eases Jade's guilt with just a few words and a strong hug. She cries at the grave that bares her beloved husband's name, and promises him she'll protect their son for the both of them.
The fall of Yggdrasil. She ends up back at Cobblestone, and works with Carnelian after he spends hours upon hours of apologising. She almost breaks down finding her son alive, and joins him and Hendrik to find the others.
Eleanor getting a chance to say goodbye to her beloved Irwin, promising him she'll be with him again one day—and unknowing does so again, after her son goes back in time.
Eleanor at her son's side as they defeat Calasmos once and for all. She weeps with her father as they finally avenge Dundrasil and Irwin, and is there when her son chooses one of his companions to stay with him in Cobblestone. She decides to rebuild Dundrasil because like hell Calasmos will get a win from beyond the grave by having Dundrasil remain a ruin.
AU where Eleanor becomes more than another dead mother, a dead wife, and a dead daughter in a Dragon Quest game.

THE LEGEND OF QUEEN ELEANOR OF AQUITAINE -- IN PRE-RAPHAELITE FORM.
PIC INFO: Resolution at 1332x1815 -- Spotlight on an 1858 oil-on-canvas painting titled "Queen Eleanor" by Pre-Raphaelite artist Frederick Sandys (1829-1904) which depicts Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, the wife of King Henry II of England, on her way to poison her husband's mistress, Rosamund Clifford. The painting is displayed at the National Museum Cardiff, Wales, UK, which obtained it in 1981.
LEGEND/SIGNIFICANCE OF PAINTING: "The traditional story recounts that King Henry concealed his affair from Queen Eleanor by conducting it within the innermost recesses of a complicated maze. Queen Eleanor penetrated the labyrinth while trailing a red cord, shown in the subject's left hand, and forced her rival to choose between a dagger and the bowl of poison. Rosamund chose the poison, and died."
-- WIKIPEDIA
