Fashion Illustration Technique Fuku No Kozo Wo Rikai Shite Egaku

[Machine Translation] The author, who teaches at a fashion college, gently teaches fashion illustration from the basics. First, the book starts with how to draw human figures, including their proportions and poses, so that even first-time illustrators can easily understand how to draw them. Next, she explains how clothes are made by cutting and sewing cloth, and gives easy-to-understand illustrations of the structure of each item of clothing. The section also explains where and how wrinkles are created when people wear clothes, how they differ from wrinkles (gathers, drapes, etc.) that are added as part of the design, and touches on darts and tucks, which are essential for clothes with a three-dimensional structure. In addition, tips and techniques for applying color are introduced, including the differences in expression depending on the fabric and how to apply patterns. The book also includes a wealth of design variations and examples, so it is recommended not only for fashion drawings, but also as a reference for those who draw comics and portrait illustrations.

服飾大学で教鞭をとる著者が、ファッションイラストを基礎からやさしく教えます。まず、初めて描く方にもわかりやすいよう、人体のプロポーションやポーズなど、人物の描き方からスタート。次に、どのように布を断裁して縫って服が作られているのか、アイテムごとに服の構造をわかりやすく図説。人が服を着ると、どこに、どのようなシワができるのか、デザインとして入れるシワ(ギャザーやドレープなど)とはどう違うのか、立体的な構造の洋服に必須のダーツやタックについても触れています。さらに、布地による表現の違い、柄の塗り方など、色を塗る時のコツやテクニックも紹介。デザインのバリエーションや作例も豊富に収録していますので、ファッション画に限らず、コミックや人物イラストを描かれる方の参考としてもおすすめです。
