You’ve got your pose. Now you’re ready to start clothing your characters. Here are a few handy reminders to help you get started.
Fabric doesn’t naturally gather under or between breasts. If a woman is wearing a snug-fitting top, the fabric pulls down, not under.
The type of fabric affects a garment’s shape, but that’s not all that changes it. When you’re clothing your characters, consider outside forces such as the body’s movement or strong wind and weather.
All fabric is not created equal. Some materials are soft and drape on the body. Other fabrics are stiff and can hold the shape of a high collar or a bell sleeve. Fabric can also be altered by the way it’s sewn. Mixing multiple fabrics can create several different drapes and textures in one garment.
