EXERCISE - DESIGN WITH MARKERS 

WEEK 3

Today, after Ms Maria guided us to brainstorm ideas and theme for our assignment 1, she taught us 2 ways to apply colour on croquis with our design, which is watercolour and markers. 

My Summary:

1. making for the important parts such as, shoulders, armholes, waist, hips... 

2. draw a very quick sketch of design on our croquis (straight lines, no flurry)

3. sketch the details for the design

4. use a drawing pen to outline it and draw the details

5. erase the pencil line 

6. start colour it

With Markers

This is my first time using markers to colour a fashion design, I think it’s quite interesting. In the process, I’m not so sure where to add the darker colour for the folded area but I tried to just apply it and make it looks natural. Compare to watercolour, I think markers is easier to control but the markers need have a good quality if not it gets dry very fast.
