Introduction When creating Shojo Fashion Ma nga

Art School Year 1—that is to say,

the first book!—we hit upon som ething that we felt was underre presented, not only in the world of art guides, but manga and com ic art in general. Clothing. We fou nd it difficult to find manga or comic books with colorful, unique, cre ative, realistic clothing. Clothes that change every day, because most characters have more than one outfit. Clothes that get ripped or dirty in realistic ways. Clothes that say something about a character’ s personality. For Year 2, we’ve created a manga -style how-to-draw book centered entirely around clothes . In the following pages you wil l find information on casual clot hing, clothing for going out, wor k clothes, school clothes and eve n how to design your own school uniform. From prom to weddin gs, and sports to seasonal, we hav e covered the basics for manga in a modern-day setting. You’ll find tips on every step of the proces s and hundreds of pieces of art to use for your own reference. While this book is by no means exhaustive—how could it be? It would take thousand of pages!— we have done our best to create something worthy of a spot on your shelf. And with any luck, this expedition into the world of clot hing in manga/comic mediums will continue in Year 3.

MATCHING CLOTHES AND PERSONALITY How you dress your characters accentuates their personalities. Putting the same woman in different outfits gives you a vastly different assumption of who she really is.

CLOTHING ON DIFFERENT BODY TYPES Bodies don’t come in only one shape. People develop muscle differently and put on weight in different areas. Here are the basic outlines of chubby, skinny and muscular male body types. Consider what sort of body type you are dressing, as it will affect the way the fabric lies.

DRAWING DIRT ON CLOTHES

1

When you want to make clothes look dirt smudged, pick a few spots and start drawing groups of lines.

2

Crosshatch the lines going in several directions. The crosshatching should be very messy. The more lines there are, the more dirty it will look. Leave fewer lines for lighter patches of dirt.

DRAW A PADDED COAT

1 2

Sketch the body. Keep the form tight to ward off the cold.

Outline the clothing. Note that the big coat makes him look a lot thicker than he is.

3

Clean up the outline. Create wrinkles that pinch around the seams of the padded coat. Add some dark lines to convey depth, but not too thick or the coat will look flat.

4

When colored, the inked seam lines disappear though their shape is still conveyed. The shading is flat and two-toned, because this fabric isn’t prone to shine.

DRAW A PADDED SLEEVE

1

Sketch the padded surface of the jacket over the arm. The outline will come up away from the arm. The stretchy, cuff fabric should hug the skin.

2 3

Draw the stitching lines of the cuff and sleeve.

Clean up the outline. Pinch the seams and add a few wrinkles around them.

4

The darker lines in the seams convey the depth of the padded, stuffed fabric. Add a few wrinkles in the middle of each fabric segment but keep the focus on the seams. Long, straight lights with a few straight creases will do for the cuff.
