How to Draw Clothing : For Beginners

1. Intro to Draw Clothing: Hi, Today you're going to learn how to draw clothing. I'm gonna take you through it step-by-step and make it a lot easier than you've heard it was. I'm Enrique, artist and illustrator. I worked on movies like The Smurfs movie and transformers three, dark and the moon. I was stereo artist on those. I've done a lot of t-shirt designs for different companies. I've worked in cartoons, lots of different things. What I want to do is I want to make clothing easy for you to draw. I think it has a reputation of being incredibly hard to draw because of the looseness of fabric and just things of that sort. So what I'm gonna do in this lesson is I'm going to demystify all of that for you. I'm gonna make it much, much easier for you to grasp. And I'll tell you how. Let's go into it. Firstly, I'm going to go over the seven most common folds that there are. So when you're looking at an image and you see somebody's clothing, usually what happens is it looks like a big mess. Like clothing can look like very difficult and strange and you just kind of like, what is that? It's just like stacks upon stacks. What is that? What we do here is we go over and you classify each fold so that you understand it when you're looking at a photo. And then when you know all that stuff, you can draw it from your mind as well. So you can draw your characters with clothing and stuff like that. And it'll make sense, the folding will make sense. So number one, let's go over just a couple of, for example, there's things like the Pipe fold, the Diaper fold, the spiral fold, the inert fold, the drop fold. And I believe the last one is the zigzag fold. Those are seven folds and I'm gonna go through each one of them and what they are. Then I'm going to go over and I'm going to tell you where the tension points on clothing usually are with the knowledge of a folds that we just learned. I'm going to tell you where on the body, like we weren't a shirt. There's a tension here, right? And the armpit on the same kind of behind the knee. I'm going to talk about where the tension points usually are for clothing on people and different characters. Then I'm going to go over this in a photo format. I'm going to pick a bunch of photos, like real photos. I'm going to show you on camera and I'm going to point out the folds that we had talked about. That's it. After that, you'll be able to identify different types of folds anywhere. You see them anywhere in photos, and he weren't other characters. And you're gonna be able to draw them from your mind's eye. That's kind of a goal of it. But that's pretty much it. You're going to learn this. And most people never learn this. You're going to learn something that is pretty rare honestly, most people don't go over clothing like this. They just kind of draw it on a whim. That's pretty much it. I'm going to take you through this course, really simple and really easily just spoon-feed it to you. So let's jump right into the first lesson and get started, okay. 2. Tension Points: All right, Let's talk a bit about tension points. Tension points are kind of all over the body, alright, when you type of clothing, those tension points are going to lead to where you find what kind of fool to use. We've talked a lot about the knee, right? If you weren't pants. The knee is big tension point. Pulling their afford to have like the leg on the inside. Let's say this is the leg on the inside. Like our shoe over here. We have our thing over here on this side. Remember that gravity is acting upon this. So right now I'm going to say just to differentiate the leg from the cloth. The cloth is the pants are pretty close. Over here is where you start to get some hang over here because the gravity is pushing down, right? You're not gonna see much up here. You're going to get a little bit of fold back here as it goes down. Usually something like kinda this. Then it's really gonna have some fold over here. This is kind of where the physical leg would be and then the folding would be here. That's a really common, honestly for pants to do that, to kind of hang out like that. Were to kinda keep going here and start looking at, let's look at this view from the front as well. Draw the leg from the front. Say like closer to the front. That tension point is going to be in the same place. It's going to be at the knee. Let's go over here and try to differentiate it again. That's the leg and the inside the physical leg. The cloth is gonna hang out here a bit. Go down the actual cloth. It's gonna be pulling up against the back of the calf here. It'll be a little bit right there, but it's really going to be out front here where that's gonna be. It's gonna extend a bit because it's hanging down for that knee area. Tension points. Another one would be a really good one. When you really think about it would obviously be the obvious ones. We went over like the elbow, right? When you bend the elbow is a tension point over here. Let's put attention point with a circle. Touch upon Vienna Circle. Depending on how tight the shirt as though that's gonna be pretty much where you'd expect. But retention points gonna be right here in the folding is going to be dictated from this tension point on this, on this elbow. Another big one that we haven't talked about yet is I think we did talk about this actually would be if you're above the torso. Let's just say this is like our happy face head. I'm kidding. That's the head. There's tension in the armpit area for a couple of reasons. One, the reason is that you're going to have like attention where the threads are seemed right where it's sewn here. Usually shirts are sown about this area. So you're going to get tension from the armpit area also because your your arms are collapsed in on that area. So you're gonna be having that you're gonna be having almost a Diaper fold effect here from the neck. A little bit. Right here in the neck, there's gonna be these large points of tension would be like the shoulder area right here. And you might have a diver fold effect here, like down the shirt. As it goes down. If you're pulled down, you don't want a floating shirt. That's a big thing. You don't want it to float. There's gonna be some like fabric compressing here as kind of like a hits your waist. It, around this point here. Around the waist is gonna be bunching up right as it hits your waste in Canada. It's gonna be tightened there and it's going to basically it's a hits your waist. It's not going to go unless it's a really big shirt, it'll go down all the way, but usually it'll run into your waist there. There's gravity falling upon the arm here. So you're gonna go over here down. This is going to go down. And it might flare up at the end. Might flare up over here, it might not, it might just completely rub against the arm. That's a really big one. That's kind of the big tension points here. Shoulder. Again, think of where gravity is involved. And that's going to always kind of guide you lot of your decisions. Gravity with the shoulders here it's going to pull down, gonna pull down here. Gravity is going to affect the shirts, but it will bundle up at the waist. I think those are the major ones that I remember kind of in his armpit area, it's pressing down. It's causing its own tension as well. Kind of also where it's sewn. The more you study this stuff, the more fascinating and interesting It's gonna be. And the more you draw this stuff right out of your head, like or more importantly. Well, not more importantly, but you're gonna be able to identify folds in like when you're drawing someone else, you're gonna be like me drawing a picture. You'll be able to identify that fold and kind of simplify it. That's the tension points. If you have any questions asked me below and I'll reply. But tension points are really important and it's kind of for different than obviously we're going to work people the most. But for different things, there's different tension points. If it's hanging over an object, you're covering an object, VLSI cover like a motorcycle or something like that. There's gonna be a different tension points there, but obviously we're dealing more with clothing. It's kind of what we want to do. 3. Pipe fold: Alright, let's go over the first type of fold and I want to go over, okay, It's gonna be 70 days, but let's go with type one. Pipe fold, Pipe fold. Pipe fold happens whenever you have 1 of tension. Usually, not always, but usually right there. Let's put a dot and that's gonna be, let's say, Let's say it's gonna be like a nail on the wall and you nailed like a blanket or something into the wall. You're gonna have 1 of tension. And instead the cloth is gonna come out here. From that point of tension. There's gonna be folding from there. This is a, That's what, that tension point. It's only one. And what's going to happen with the cloth is it's gonna kinda turn into like a pipe shape. A lot of these, you'll see these a lot like at the corners of tables. Or usually I can't think of another source. I know they're they're everywhere though. Like a cape like on the sides of capes and stuff like that. That's why they call it because when you like, Let's just zoom in on this right here. That area is they will literally turn into these pipe shapes. As from that one-point attention. Literally turned into pipes made kind of shade that in. Hopefully this picture I'm doing right here makes, makes sense. Identifying folds is really important because the more you identify it, the easier it's gonna be to recall it in your mind and draw it from your memory and that's ultimately your goal. I think. The other thing is though, you can identify these things in like real fabrics in photography. And that'll help you again identify it and create your own or just be able to draw it better. So it won't just be a complete mess. You can tell like if you were to go over here, it goes as bump. Bump over here for a drawing, arrow, bump over here, and bump right here, creating that kind of pipe shape. Essentially. That's what we call pitfalls. Again, requiring at least 1 of tension. And usually they come right from that. Let's keep it there. That's a Pipe fold. Simple, real simple. Let's move on to the next one. 4. Daiper fold: The next type of full we're gonna go over is called the Diaper fold. Diaper fold. Diaper fold essentially is when you have two points of tension, two major points of tension. Let's just say there's two nails on the wall. You put down cloth. There's two points right here, so it's gonna come from here. Right there. Those are those points of tension. And what happens is normally, is you get like fold right here. You're going to fold like this. Get a fold like this. I'm gonna show you from the front view and the side view in a minute. But usually I would say the biggest full comes from the outside and I'll show you that in the next view. And then it kind of just kinda evens out here at the bottom. It starts with the folds get lighter and lighter and lighter, they don't get as major. Usually the folds start from the top. I'm going to demonstrate to you right now on the side. If you turn that over to the right, Let's just say we're zooming in on the right side over here. You're going to have something like this. You're going to have it's going to come out, it's going to burst out. Gonna get smaller. Then usually it's going to get more small. Way at the bottom. These shapes popping out here are gonna get smart. Let me go into it a little bit more than that. So it kind of make it more obvious. We have a point of tension here on this side. Then you have a point of tension over there on the far side. Over here somewhere. Like so. Again, if part of it coming out pops out, pops it over here as they layer. And then I usually get usually gets bigger and then it usually gets wider and sometimes longer, but it doesn't come out as Major. See how this bump right here is very major. This one gets a little bit smaller and then it just kind of settles down toward the end. Like over here maybe like barely right here. There's not much over here at this point. Something like a cape. That's a big one. Some form of women's dresses, especially when they're hanging on a hanger. Look at women's dresses when they're on a hanger. If they usually like elegant dresses. If they're on a hanger, they'll have this exact fold. For this full from the side here you want to think in 3D. You want to, it's wrapping around and it's on the far end. He went to imagine that wrapping around. If we were to go over like let's say another Diaper fold maybe just kinda holding it in two hands. Let's say you're holding it like a towel or something into hands. There's tension on one hand over here and tension on the other hand. Just to kind of make this idea a little more clear to you. Let's just say these are the two points. You got lucky, got on balled up in your hand. And you're letting the, given a little bit of slack. Slack is gonna go maybe down here. Down here as well. Be a fold on this side over here. Unless it hits the bottom of the towel here, let's say, let's cut it short. That's the bottom of the tau. Then from this area, you would have Pipe fold. So you have this Diaper fold in the middle. With, on this side you have one form once at least one tension source. You're going to have with at least the other side of the tile here. Some pipe folds. Most likely because of this tension point right here on the hand. These are pipe folds. And I'm going to draw some over here as well. Because hopefully this makes sense, right? There's one form of tension over here. And I guess like this line over here for tension in these lines. This tension on this side creates a pipe fold here. In the middle. There's two points of tension, right? So this is a Diaper fold. And on this side there's 1 of tension, at least on that side that you see everywhere. You can see that like again, dresses, a certain sweaters. You can you always see it like sweaters, especially around the shoulder area. So you've got like let's say your shoulders. And we'll go over clothing in a few chapters down the line here. But just to got to make this point clear, you get this a lot in clothing. So you see like the front of the shirt has this a lot maybe to not, not to the same extreme though. Then right here, the Diaper fold you get, like I said, unlike everywhere like at the, at the ends of dresses and stuff like the variance, not the top, the bottom. You see that all the time on skirts. I think sometimes on pants, depending on what type they are. But usually they kind of iron that out. This is like with a lot of slack, right? This is what the decent amount of slack. That's a Diaper fold if this center portion, two points of tension, remember that Diaper fold, two points of tension back to the other one, Pipe fold 1 of tension is going good. Let's move on to the next. 5. Drop fold: The next fold, and I think this is one of the more complicated folds to understand, but we'll try our best here. This is a drop fold. A drop fold is usually it ends up being intermixed with other folds. But I'll give you one example of a, of a drop fold. Drop fold can be like when you see like the corner, like a tablecloth coming off the corner. Let's just save this as like the corner of a tablecloth. Obviously of his points of tension on the side. Let's say it could create like a pipe fold over here, maybe even over here on the other hand, sometimes. But this area right here overall will create these kinda like formless, just whatever folds I didn't know. That's why it's kind of in-between. Because this whole edge is a point of tension. It's these essentially these formless folds and they're really, the biggest part is that they're influenced by gravity in general. They're just being pulled down. But they're not forming like a pipe shape in any way because the surface is all over here. It's so spread out. It's only creating a pipe folder over here. Over here. These over here are just regular, call them drop folds, which again, in my opinion are the most ambiguous folds in general. You cannot see them, whatever I'll give you another whatever example of this. So over here you could remember, remember this right here. The 1 of tension. Sometimes we're talking about like attention going around here. If let's just say it's like a folded napkin. I mean, like just whatever. Let's just say it's like a folded napkin, but it's like flat to the wall. All right. Let me let me do this right here just to make it clear. These would also be considered pipe, but assigning these would also be considered drop folds right here. Stuff like this, stuff like this, because they're never really making that pipe shape. They're not buoyant and creating that pipe shape, they're just kind of like right there. Like that's the, if you remember one word, this is the black fold, the Blair right there fold. It's not pretty it's not like it like I said, it's always between other types of folds like this, the Pipe fold right here, this is a pitfall. Pipe folds are pretty drawings are pointing to flowy diaper folds also are pretty. Like I said, this one in general though is not that pretty. It's just kind of whatever this is called a drop fold really, any kind of fold just kind of going down. That's almost ambiguous, affected by gravity. And that's really what a drop fold is. People get really confused at this one. But we're going to point them out in clothing later on in the lesson, the lessons further. Anyways, let's move on to the next one. That was the drop forward. 6. Half lock fold: Alright, let's go over the half lock fold. Half log fold. You see the most at least I see it in the most. In your elbow and the crook of your elbow when you fold your arm. And like in pants as well, like in the suit and pants for example. So it's basically twofold. One fold, maybe folding into the other. Let's just say this is like the knee right there. You've got the tip of the knee and he's Leslie's wearing a suit or just even normal pants, whatever. And we're going to go up here and you're gonna get something to the extent of this gonna pull up, maybe it's creating a fold here from the lower leg. It's going to fold up into like let's just say that folds in there almost, almost like it's in another folder over here. And let's just say this fold is something like that. So you have this fold within a fold over here. Kind of creates a little bit of dead space there. But it's one fold, folding into another. Basically large, large, full-width or it could be in here like in reality here to draw it out. It might be in here. These are everywhere. These are most common ever like if you go onto the sleeve. Let's just draw like I don't know, like a woman's blouse or something like that. So this is a top of the arm, and then this is the lower portion of the arm. You're gonna get some wrinkling here. And then you're gonna get like boom, right, like one large fold here, like locking into another one many times. This is just like squished together but like on one end, like on the inside crevice. You see those everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. You see them constantly there like any kind of long sleeve shirt you where they are gonna be there. It's just this part right here, this fold. It's like one bunch moving into another one he kinda lock into which they called a half lock. One kind of locks into the other and they don't have to lock in perfectly. It can be something like this. Let's just save this. Like an add on whatever fabric can be right here. Let's just say it's like a bunched up towel or something. Something like that. This area right here, this, this fold right there. Let's try to make sense of the fold by putting in a little bit of value. That's probably the most common fold you've ever seen. It went when you think of like folds and clothing, that's usually the first ones like this with someone's knee. This is an elbow and this is just a bunch of paper, right? They're all like this kinda, kinda full. Remember, one bunch pushing, maybe locking into another. It doesn't have to, but it looks very similar to that. Anyways, let's move on to the very last fold next. 7. Inert fold: The last one I've kind of, the more, maybe I would say, I said the drop fold was the most ambiguous. This is absolutely the most ambiguous. Imagine a drop fold. The thing that makes a drop fold unique to this fold is that the drop fold has gravity acting upon it. This one, this inert fold, which can be a combination of any folds really is like imagine just throwing a towel on the floor. Like on the floor. And just that's it. That'd be like these little weird formless, these little formulas, shapes, these little formulas, folds and indents. It's kind of like, I guess like a catch-all type fold that activate that gravity is not acting upon. Like I was saying, like literally throw a towel on the floor. And a lot of those folds are gonna be considered inert folds is just completely random, not affected by gravity, not affected by anything other than the material itself. Like if you get changed in the morning, You throw like your pants and the laundry, like on the floor. Let's just say you throw on the floor and you're like You don't like, you know, like clean room, I'm gonna throw my pants in Florida, whatever. For the line that you don't put it in the laundry basket yet. That thing, these, all those little folds all over it. We call those inert folds. And that's the word they came up with it with just like the catch-all one. Even if it could be made up of a lot of the folds we had talked about. But generally those are called inert folds. Essentially the most random, the most ambiguous of them all. I should've coupled it with drop fold because it is, like I said, drop pull that at least has gravity acting upon it. That's it. If you want to draw a nerd folds, throw a towel on the floor, and then draw that. But it will be almost entirely made up of inert folds. Some of these things just a little note, you can interchange and like I said, some of these can be interchanged and use. This is a way for you to look at stuff and to understand it and make some sense of like the folds that you're looking at, the fabrics are looking at and you're also looking for something that might look more attractive. This is just to understand it. We're gonna move on to the next lesson. And I'm going to talk a whole lot more about kind of how you're gonna use this stuff and how to identify it. Let's move on to the next lesson. 8. Spiral fold: Alright, let's get into two folds that are related. So I'm gonna kinda go over those with you. One, we're going to go over the spiral fold. We got to think of in cones. You've got to think of salt cylinders. You think in a cylinder is like your arm. So this really applies. Something like your arm would be example like with loose fitting clothes. Let's just say on your arm, Let's just say you have a sweater, that's the easiest one. Sweater. You're going to get these folds that kind of bunch up on each other, especially when there's slack. With a sweater. You're going to have maybe these donut shaped, these donut shaped folds going on. Always, always happens in sweaters. If you wear a bunch. That's kind of what best way I can think about how to describe them. Where they kind of have these bill, uh, we bronchi shapes to them and they kinda keep keep that form. Usually like I said, you see that? When, you know, like I said, when you're wearing baggy stuff, like I was saying, the best and the fabric is pretty maybe like just kind of baggy lot in sweaters, a lot, a lot, a lot in source. So imagine this is like the armpit and this is the elbow lot, lot, lot of them with sweater you, in fact, you always see that. Maybe another way to see that you could probably see, let's say spiral folds. Think I said spiral folds right here. These are spiral folds. So another place you can see him is that I see them a lot, is if there are enough off the curtain, you're hanging your current and your house. This top part right here. Same thing. He's kind of doughnut shaped. Bill Louis folds right here. It's also going around a cylinder. It's always going to run a syllabus spiral folds. It can twist down as well. But that's mostly the place I see them. So if you were to even go like this, you see him around here. Go down right here. I could go downward here. Here. Can be like bronchi like that or it can be a little neat like this. This really applies to clothing, but the next one I think applies even to another type of clothing. Okay, let's move on to the next type of folds. 9. Zigzag fold: Okay, the next fold is pretty much related to the spiral fold. This is these zigzag fold usually this happens on that a little bit tighter clothing. Usually I see it all the time and suits. But let's kinda go over that. It's kind of like this crushing kind of phenomenon on a, what you call it. For example, like we were seeing the suit, some equipment or think of a can that you're crushing down, kind of like that. And you're gonna get a fold like this. Fold right here. Like this. You guys have or CDA, like on suits or clothing. This kind of fold. Then maybe you're going to have like one right there. Let's just say it, Let's just put that there and you're gonna have another one over here. You see us in the crook of your elbow a whole lot. Like I said, it's similar, it's more but it has this zigzag pattern. It's more like denting. That's the way I like to think about it. You know, it looks a lot like denting, like your denting. The clot itself is kind of collapsing in on itself a little bit. And those are all over, like I said, you see them a lot like an jackets. Like tighter clothing. Again, usually around the elbow but it can also go can I go down the sleeve or you see them like in pant legs and stuff like that. But they happen all over the time. It's this kind of neat to when they happen like that. Comics, when we look at comic books, they have them all up and down their arm. Fiercely. I think Jim Lee stuff, we'll do that. John finch, John Fitch. His, his cloth will do stuff like that as well. They can be like tight like that or they can be a little bit more below. They can be a little bit more baggy also. But even when they're baggy are still making this interlocking pattern going on, right? Even when they're baggy or it doesn't, it's still kind of becoming like a dent in there. That's what I mean by it's related to the spiral folds because they're, they are similar but this one feels more like it's crushed down. Spiral folds. They are crushed but they feel more like I say like doughnuts, spiral folds. But these are not, these are more like a lot of heavy indentations. This is the zigzag fold. That makes sense. Like you really see them like on pant legs, like I said, the bottom of pant legs when they when they bend down, you're gonna see a ton of them. Like I said, we're gonna go over some photos in the next few lessons after this, we're gonna kinda see where you can identify them in reality and stuff like that. Here we go. Anyways, hopefully you got that. Let's move on to the next one. 10. Finding Folds in Pictures: Let's do a little exercise. I want you to do this as well on your own time. Go through the Internet or go through maybe old magazines or whatever that you find, anything you find and start identifying the folds that we talked about. I grabbed a sack of these old images I used to use for reference. And we're gonna go through them and see if we can find some of the folds that we're talking about. We've got identify, just like a couple here. This one right here. The Marlon Brando won on a motorcycle. I talked about kind of the point of tension would be up here and over here. But Let's look at the type of folds like immediately I'm seeing in inert fold over here. That could also, you could thing is you can also identify these as something else. Like that to me, looks like an inert fold, right in this area. You could also identify it as a spiral fold as well. Maybe even in zigzag. I actually think this is an obvious zigzag fold right here in the glove, the edge of the glove right there. You could also maybe call it a spiral, but I think it's a zigzag because it's interlocking is kind of a dented in there as well. Over here on the back. I think this looks kinda like a half lock here at the elbow. This is a very, very clear zigzag over here. If you could see it. I'm getting a little bit more of a zigzag as well along the forearm here on this on this jacket. Look a little bit more. Don't really see a Pipe fold anywhere. To be honest. The inert is just something else. And I guess the know, these could plausibly be Drop folder right here along the edge. Just like the ones that are laying on the shoulder there. That's all I could find right now. Like I said, if you do this, you're gonna start identifying them everywhere. And that's the first step into being able to draw them from your mind. Here. Bogey, this is bogey, right? Humphrey Bogart. Look right off the bat. Looks like zigzag folds here along the arm. Kind of going all the way down there. It's kind of in perspective. There's a kind of a half lock fold going on here, like almost like a diaper half Locke going on in the fall and the front of the suit there, it's kind of folding in on itself. I would almost consider that. Now. I would actually almost a half lock but I'm sorry, I almost like a half lock but I guess I would consider it maybe even like a Diaper fold in a way there. I'm not really sure what I would. I mean, it's like a mixture. You're going to find that folder going to intermix and stuff like that. We use these names to identify stuff to make it easier. You're making sense, but we're here, It's just totally hidden. That's kind of it really. This is just like gravity acting upon his shoulders, so it's like pulling down. But when you go through any analyzed stuff like this, even in daily life, if you're like people watching, like let's say at a mall or something like that. You can people watch by doing the exact same thing. Humphrey Bogart again, looked at his arm. This one's like you can tell, it's like a thinner shirt, right? It's thinner than the suit. I think. It's a little loose, looser fit. Especially this one over here. I'm seeing I'm seeing some zigzag folds right here in the arm, on the upper arm right here. Try pointed out over here with this. I would say there's definitely a half Locke, there's almost always a half lock in a bent elbow. These are just dropped folder right here in the front of his shirt. Those are very obvious Drop folds, in my opinion. It looks like the drapery coming off like a flat table right here. It's coming off his arms. Those are dropped folds. You maybe know. This is almost a spiral fold. These might be spiral folds right here coming in the armpit. I think this actually are spiral folds. I'm gonna say yes. Somebody else could look at this who also knows everything. Like, you could look at this and be like, oh no, I think this is kind of cool. It's not quite like a solid at science that we're doing here. These are just ways to identify stuff there. Prescriptive not I'm sorry. There are descriptive not prescriptive. Great. We're describing what we're seeing and trying to make sense of it. I think that's all I can get out of that one. Might be user one right here. Man, this was hard. I don't know the, I forgot the actresses name. Actor or the actors or actresses name. This is hard. They're all kinda messy writes. I know right here, there's obviously some tension here on the waistline. Would consider all this drop folding, drop folds just coming down there. I would totally consented draw folds. This is, I think this is a spiral fold by believed right here in the armpit going up the arm. I think the picture is older, but I see this as a zigzag on the arm here. This little bit adhere can't tell. I actually, you know what, I take that back. That's a drop fold. I think it's hard to tell because the photos old and it's kind of overexpose there. I think that's all I could find on that one. Might be the last one that we're gonna go over just to kinda well, let me see this. It's the photos kind of blown out. It's hard to see. But it's a good exercise, right? I can barely see anything. It's just like a shadow right here. It's really the contrast super high, but where actually it will do the second 1, first tension right here. Right, right at the, at the the what do you call this again? The cuff right here at the cuff on the arm. The cuff of that shirt. There's tension. There's some folds coming from here. Just some tension folds. I would probably call those drop folds. I think. You could even call those. Yeah, those are dropped holds. I think. You could almost call this an hurtful. Don't think so. I think there's a drop folds because it's gravity is acting upon them a little bit. Over here at the elbow. He's kind of bending his arm. You can tell that the materials a little bit bill away like it's not like super tight on its body, on his body. And there's some tension coming over here. Some of this is also because the material is wrinkled as well. Right here. I would consider these. I might consider these drop folds as well. Pulling down here, I think these are dropped folds as well. Yeah, I think most of these drought fools, you see some different let me know in the comments. But that's kind of what I'm seeing from we're really just looking at his arm over here. Yeah, I'm pretty much only seeing drop folds but until we're like points of tension are. All right, Last one. Let's look at this. This is a different kind of exercise you can almost take. It's blown out. But where would, we're kind of thinking where would they naturally go forward? Folds naturally go. The material, the jacket we know is thicker. We can tell it's more of a more velvet looking. It's just it's just like a thicker looking material. Hockey. Hockey. Tell us some things thick or thin by the way. I think I asked some lesson before. Usually there'll be more folds and a thinner fabric. At thicker fabric tends to have less folds. Usually, it's not always the case, but usually right here in the, I think it's elbows right here and do with a lighter hand because see, yeah. I would say in this area right here in the elbow, there would be a half lock fold on the other side pulling up here there'll be a spiral full from the armpit. Over here. There's really none. And there's some drop folds here from the shirt. Just like on his chest area. Drop some spiral folds going up as other armpit. I think there's some zigzag folds here along the crack of his arm over here, like along the forearm, curricular forearm. That's kind of where I think they would go. Right. I'm not finding those. I'm just kind of vaguely sing them and I'm like, All right, this is probably there. That's something you can get good at doing as well. When you're creating folds. You have a lot of control over whatever character you want to draw for the clothing that you're trying to draw from, like a model. Or if you're trying to draw photo, you can identify stuff a lot easier by knowing those types of folds we went over. Alright, I hope that helped. Okay, I hope that exercise helped a lot.
