Creating perspective and volume correctly is
very important—let’s explore more about this
process using the following steps to costume
our characters:
1. Start with the base body line art.
2. Then add the costume design over your
base body.
3. Review and adjust the direction of each
element—this will help your costume
to wrap over the body’s shape and
volume correctly.
By following these steps your character
will be ready for action!
PRO TIP:
Although it is easy to find online
references, I recommend taking
your own pictures. You can ask
friends and family to help so you
can plan out your photo references
that will help you create better
illustrations. Also, while taking
your own pictures you see details
in the hands, feet, and expressions
that you may not pay attention to
using pictures from the internet.
All you need is a cell phone and
you are ready to go!
