Nomad - Fashion Illustrations

For Fashion Illustrations I was one of the few who decided to use Adobe Photoshop.

Our lecturer had decided to give us templates on our moodle so that we could draw around them or to use photoshop to put our designs on them.

It took longer than I thought to create them but I really like the results. I could see my ideas quickly but finding ones that actually worked together was harder than I thought it would be.

To create them I duplicated the background layer and slotted my prints into the gap between the background and duplicate. I then used the magic wand tool to select the inner shape of the garment and deleted it. This made the top layer act like a stencil and was easier to keep my prints at the right scale.

Just for fun I scaled up a few and experimented with blending one print into another. We weren’t really supposed to but I put the results into my sketchbook.

I ended up with more than I was supposed to and had to ask the lecturer to help me to narrow them down.
