Fashion Friday: Shading

This week in my fashion illustration course we continued drawing fashion figures based on magazine images we liked, and then started playing around with shading in different mediums. I chose chalk pastel, watercolor, and felt-tip pen. It wasn't the best paper for working on (photocopy paper) but I'd left my visual diary at home.

Do you have any shading tips for me?

If you'd like to see some of my finished fashion illustrations, I've started a new blog Illustrateur. (Because Illustrator just sounds fancier in French). ;)

  3. Looking good, investing time on improving your technical skills like that must come in very useful in the end. Wish I had the patience and time to follow your example... :)

  4. Hi Emmi, That's why I signed up for this illustration class, so I had a dedicated 3 hours a week to work on my skills. Otherwise I just never get around to it. ;)
