We're still working on our male gestures. Once we have a good figure, we'll draw on tracing paper the silhouette of the garment, with Prisma.
If we want to draw a colored garment, we first block in the color, with pastel and blend it to make it smooth.
With the side of the Prisma pencil (not with the point) we add the folds and shadows.
Witha light pastel (or white) we can add highlights.
At the end we render the outlines of the garment and add accents.
Drawing the clothing on tracing paper:
1. Creating the silhouette of the garment first, paying attention to the proportions of every single garment,
2. Blocking in the color of garment (with either pastel dust, or pastels regularly and blend)
3. Adding shadows and highlights, with either the side of the Prisma pencil or marker)
4. It is important to understand that the folds of the garments drape after the body shape and pose. Feeling the body beneath!
