In the field of fashion, the female model is the soul that shows the glamour of the clothes. Today, let's learn how to draw a female model that is both vivid and stylish. Prepare your drawing paper and brushes, let's start together!
Step 1: Conceptualise and sketch. Make a mental image of the female model you want, whether she is standing, sitting or in some other position? We can start with a "seated female mannequin". Lightly sketch the outline of the model on the drawing paper, not too detailed, but mainly to determine the position and pose. Remember to keep the proportions of the body, head, torso, and limbs accurate.
Step 2: Refine the outline. Next, we start to refine the model's silhouette. Starting with the head, draw delicate features and hairstyle to give the model a unique personality. Then, slowly outline the curves of the body, paying attention to the soft lines unique to women. When drawing the sitting position, pay special attention to the posture of the legs and hips so that the model looks both natural and elegant. Imagine that the model is sitting on a chair, or casually sitting on the floor, and adjust the posture according to the design needs.
Step 3: Add details. Once the basic silhouette of the model is complete, we can start adding details. Different materials are used or different types of models require different details. The "plastic female full body mannequin" will have a smooth surface and clear joint lines, which we can express with fine lines on the drawing paper. Dummy for ladies suits will of course have different requirements, more attention should be paid to the shoulders.
Step 4: Colour and light. Choose the right colours to make the model's clothes and skin tone look harmonious. Use light and shadow effects to enhance the three-dimensionality and spatiality of the picture, so that the model seems to come out of the drawing paper. Remember to leave highlights and shadows in the picture so that the model can look more vivid and three-dimensional. You can use coloured pencils, watercolours or any other drawing tools you like to complete this step.
Finished, you can use this drawing as a reference picture for fashion design or show it to your friends to enjoy. I hope you have enjoyed the fun of creation in the process of drawing.
