Step by step guide: How to built a structured under-drawing
This is a basic, structured built of the female fashion figure, front, three-quarter and side view (below). Always remember you need to be aware of your center-front or back, to understand the angle of the figure.
Be aware that hips don't get (much) wider by the pose. Pay attention to floorline (feet) and forshortening of feet/shoes.
Always be aware where your center front or back of the pelvis are. Remember the S-curve. Compare the center of the ankle bone (of the weight-leg) to placement of hip/waist.
Draw weight-leg first, always. Pay attention to negative space between legs.
Shadow/light:
4 step exercise:
1)Draw the underdrawing with a light pastel or marker. Include feet, draw the weight leg first and use negative space (s).
2) Add shadows, using a dark pastel, seeing shadow as a shape.
3) Adding highlights, with a bright pastel (eg. yellow)
4) Render the figure with Prisma pencil, terra cotta for hair/skin, and black for the swimsuit.
