Second load of laundry is in the dryer and I've gotten the sketch done. I'm not sure the fabric would drape exactly like I've drawn, but without pinning up a model I can't be sure. I think it's good enough.

Are you working towards a pattern? Or a finished drawing?

[silvercat17]

A finished drawing. But it involves made-up clothes for one of the cultures I've invented and drawing draping cloth is hard. (This is why in comics most people wear spandex which is really just painted on)

[kellan_the_tabby]

It really is; I've only drawn the most basic sketches of outfits, but I've always been working towards a pattern & then finished clothing, not a drawing, so I could always work out the drape once I actually had the fabric in hand.

I know they sell little jointed models of humans for drawing reference; could be fun to play with making tiny clothing for them to check the drape.

I have some good ones I'm selling on eBay because I never use them. I could use some of my action figures.

You get +5 to Dorkery for that, too.

Making progress on my craft. I'm dremeling the middle out of a google phone box to make a display case. I'm not going to get it done today because it's ridiculously thick.

I've put it away for now so I can do more chores. Yay chores

Look at this, it's ridiculous

And it was free.

Best kind of craft ingredient.

I have a couple cell phone boxes I'm using for keeping my sewing stuff organized & available, & someday I'm gotta decorate them, but that's WAY down the list. I've also got the VERY nice & VERY sturdy boxes my Google Wifi thingers came in, which I still haven't decided what to do with. They'll be something cool, someday.
