IKR??? and they tell me not to be a stealer, like how can I not steal that art style? it's too good i do changes a bit so to make it not completely copied
*Remember for all things in art: it only has to be convincing enough* If you understand the rationale behind folds, you can create more than convincing folds or anything else including lighting, anatomy, foreshortening, colors etc... In fact, don't copy. Make it better than real life as Jeff Watts of Watts Atelier always says. At the end of the day as an artist, you're interpreting reality (or what we call reality) and giving it your unique personality and spin.
I like how every time you find a new way of teaching or learn something new you upload new videos to keep us updated. One day I'll save the money to take your course, thanks for everything sensei!
Tbh the recipes advice is really important. I have noticed for myself that it just is much more helpful to study specific clothing (e.g. looser T-Shirts) than learning only the fold types and hoping that I can get around constructing them on my own out of imagination.
No matter how much I've learned, there's always something new ahead. Like a checkpoint in games. Never thought of the folds on clothes or the shape they take. Another great video Marc. Looking forward to the next great class.
I swear your timing is impeccable! Working on something at the moment so your vid came at a great time. I started with drawing the naked body, then thought about how clothes would wrap around/fall on the body. Been working in grayscale to help with the values vetter
@@GodisGood941 for sure, especially the part about triangles, and the areas where there's more pressure, tightness. Also, the difference between soft and hard materials
Good to know! Clothes are where my drawings always fall apart but i think i can do it confidently now bc most peoples videos are far too long and try to put physics in the equation and here comes this dude just saying remember this, this and this and apply it and you’ll be fine and ill he damned hes right 😂😂
@@GodisGood941 that's why I love Marc's advice! I'm also doing his arts school course and the term I'm about to begin covers clothing. Another thing I do is observe and analyse illustrations/splasharts from artists that work for Riot Games(league of legends). It helps a lot seeing how the pros simplify and approach things 😊
Thank you so much Marc for those Artschool classes! Not long ago I started my adventure with digital painting and whenever I have trouble with anything, you're always the first person I think of that can help me with any problem I encounter via those kind of videos. Now, I think the only parts I still struggle with are shadows (tho I saw you have one lesson about it and I already did checked it out and I did somehow understood those two tactics you showed, now, all that's left to do is trying to put it in practice) and ofc drawing clothes which I now understand a bit more thanks to this class :> I think, you're the only one so far that can explain most of the things to me (and probably many other ppl) in the simplest way possible
Mr Marc is such a legend , i was just thinking about a clothing tutorial by you yesterday and here we go ,thanks you are truly one of youtube's greatest art teachers ✨
I've being stuggling since I was first drawing This is the perfect tutorial I've found for folds I love how detailed your videos always are. They aren't vague but always informative Thank you so much!
I was just thinking about cloth folds while I was working on my artwork, and this automatically popped up out of nowhere is a somewhat of a coincidence lmaooo, folds are the literally are the most challenging this to draw, but that doesnt stop me in learning them everday. Thannk you so much Marc Senseiiii soonner or later I'll surely enroll to your artschooll!
at 7:50, the reason youd do the dress type folds that way is because theyre disappearing around the side of the shape, not because theyre chaotic or random.
Consistently expected exceedingly concerningly commonly reoccurring Marcy Pooh sama W . Seriously thank you sm your a workaholic bro youve came far idk how you do it man sama teach prof. sir!
This thing about the folds being like triangles is what makes me appreciate Ohkubo's art "Soul Eater designer" he literally triangulates the folds and it looks really nice and not weird. Now I know why.
Hello Marc, I know you probably won't see this but if you do I just wanna say your art lessons have helped me grow by 10000000000%. Thankyou so much for putting this stuff out there, I know by now you've helped a hell of a lot more artists like me grow and become a lot more happy with their work - so once again thankyou for that.
I just want to say thank you so much! Your art videos always help me with things I struggle on like this and without you I don’t think I’d improve as much as I did. Thank you for everything!!
ive legitimately been having problems with this recently and have been looking up a ton of videos and references!!! this came in at the perfect time!!!!
I'm trying to find a video of yours where you paint clothes/folds and explain how to do it, is it possible that you removed it? Or I don't remember right and it wasn't actually your video? It was so helpful and I need to watch it again, but I can't find it. It'd be great if you could help!
ive been recently studying your One other clothing video while i save up for your class, and seeing the notif you JUST uploaded this was so spooky. its like you KNEW ✨
Thanks for the foldy tips Marc! I always loved drawing clothing and felt my folds are _alright_ , but could always use extra pointers. Elbows and crotch folds can be tricky at times, I'll practice the triangle technique out on my next few pieces!
i thought i was bad at drawing fabric because i always tend to add a lot more folds than necessary. I watched this video and was pleasantly surprised that i already knew all of this info, so maybe im not as bad as I thought.
More could be said such as points of stress and relaxation and my own perspective that is the further away from a drop fold, meaning gravity or pull, the more stress that part of fabric will have. Or that ever fold of pipe is inner and outer so inner folds may contour the body and require more nuanced lighting than the outer or that if the object is reflective, both the inner and outer will reflect the same light at a point. Or zigzags are better on tight clothing and swirls on loose. Or if one side has more form fitting, stressed vs form fitting relaxed, the opposite may be different. Or if you are just gonna simplify it, make the folds more based on what details the figure in a balance/unity based principle than even texture based. But that's me. Ignore if you want.
thank you for doing this video Marc. I recently drew an armored character, and between the shoulder armor and going into the gauntlet I had fabric there, and I don't think I did horrible, but definitely needs improvement. with this, I should be able to do better the next time I redraw to fix the current issues with it. and I will able to see the loincloth character a bit better as well.
Marc, everyone of your videos absolutely blows my mind. I really love how you're able to break down everything into such easy to comprehend explanations. Thanks for teaching me so many great things.
This will make for some event reference material. Your stuff is always inspiring. Thank you. :) It would also be cool to see how you apply shading and depth to the clothes through rendering to get an idea of the geometry on the clothes beyond the linework itself.
Great video!! One thing I found that helps me is if you're drawing digitally. Draw cloths on separate layer, then toggle the figure pose on and off while you add folds. And see If the cloths still make sense without the figure present.
I'm like a student again and I'm just writing things down on a journal just in case i get lost a gain Thank you for uploading this great series of lectures And yes my hand writing never improved since college i cant wait for the next one
Great tutorial. I love it. Would it be too much if I ask you sometime to make extra material tips and tricks for 3D and moust of all for working with Marmoset toolbag versa 3.05 / 4. It will be great if we have some tips and tricks for working with Marmoset. If that's not a problem for you.

How to use the brush in CSP?

Thick/tight = Leather
Thick/loose = Wool
Thin/tight = Spandex
Thin/loose = Silk
Cotton can fit any of this from cloth to jeans but seemingly from Leather to Silk.
You forgot an 8th fold.
