"Fernando" Promarkers drawing





                  Hey guys..
                 Sorry, it has been a while ago since my last post, becouse I have been ill.

                 This week's piece is made with Promarkers and a liittle bit of colour pencils.
               
                Hope you like it!
                If you wonder where to get Promarkers, I can recommend the art shop
                Panduro, You can also get them on Clas Ohlson, to about 280 crowns.
                You can also get The Skin tone set, which I have used for this
                particular drawing.
                 
              I also recommend looking at Youtube videos for tips, there are always a
              lot of good and inspirational Promarkers-videos there.

             Working with Promarkers is really fun, but also a bit challenging becouse
             you've gotta work fast and there is no room for mistakes.

FASHION ILLUSTRATION-dresses, pear shaped women-a complete guide!


                  Fashion illustration No.1 "Red shoes, A-formed dress"

                So, today-here`s something completely brand new.
                I have worked with a teqhnicue which combines traditional grey pencils
                and then painted in Photoshop.

               The idea behind is that I wanted to make fashion illustration especially
               for pear-shaped women.
               I have spent a lot of time researching on the internet and magazines.
               The two first illustrations you see here is what I have been working on
               this week-look below for the complete guide for pear-shaped women.
             
               
             
               
               Fashion Illustration No.2:"Secrets"

             Also, the reason I chose this teqhnicue was becouse I wanted it to look
             a bit more realistic. In fashion illustration you often see these kind of
             figures that just shows the shape, if you are pear-shaped, time-glass etc.
           
            Anyway, if you are a pear-shaped woman, what you should go for is this:

             -A Formed skirts.A-formed skirts or dresses with a high waist
              is always good.
             It gives room for a bit of "junk in the trunk"and hides the part of you
             that you don`t want everyone to see. If you got a bit of a big behind, you
             often  also have big thighs.
            You should also use V-Shaped neck.

             
                -Skirtdresses, and wrap around dresses is also good. Remember that dark
                 colours makes you thinner, so it it wise to use a lighter top with a darker
                 skirt or jeans. You should also  try jackets with shoulder pads as it
                 will help you achive a more time-glass formed body.

                When it comes to jeans, it often is every pear shaped girls nightmare.
                But despair not!   Here is what you do:
                Look for jeans with high-waist. 
                
             
--and back: Look for jeans with BIG pockets. Small pockets actually makes your
butt looks bigger-and with a pear shaped body you often don`t want that.
Also stay out of pockets and jeans with a lot of details if you do not want the attention there.
Again, V-shaped necks and shirts with details help you to get the attention where you want it-
on your upper body!



I hope you liked this guide and please comment if there is anything you wonder about or
   just want to let me know if it helped you:)

I would also like to give a spesific tip: Treat yourself and try on many different jeans
       when you go shopping. Bik Bok has jeans with high-waist, and the new super-flex jeans is
         good for pear-shaped bodies. What you need to think about is also to look
for jeans with stretch.
Happy shopping girls!;)

"The Missing Wedding Ring"-fictional chicklit bookcover, Mixed Media

 

                      We carry on with the fictional bookcovers.:)
                      Plus, this is the kind of illustration that I want to do-so that is also something
                      I need to work on.

                      I took a old piece from when we had a workshop at NKF and
                      took it a little further.
                      The typo is Blackadder ITC-I think I downloaded it from 1001.freefonts
                       a while ago but I`m not 100% sure.

                      Actually, this week`s post almost didn`t happen due to technical problems.
                      My computer is temporalily on workshop.
                      The touchpad just suddenly stopped working. But the Bamboo pad
                      worked just fine.

                     I actually wanted to show fashion illustrations for petite women- a project
                     that has been going on in my mind for about a week now-but since
                     also my Bamboo has gone bazookas, and Bamboo.com is currently under
                     development I couldn`t update it at the moment.

                     Hopefully, next week will be better:)

"Eternal sunday"-Bookillustration fanart, mixed media


                         I love books.Love them.
                         And I often let myself be inspired by books.
       
                         I am currently reading the book
                         "Evig søndag" by Linnèa Myhre.

                         First thing first, I do not claim any copyright to the book.
                         This is just fanart.

                         Also, I did this trying a completely new technique in Photoshop.
                   
                         It is drawn in Photoshop CS5 ,using a technique
                         called Cutout,  mixed with a sketch I did
                         traditionally.

                         I also played with the letters.
                         The typo is Angelic War, it is a free font.
                         I think I downloaded it from 1001.freefonts.com
                         a long time ago.

                         Have a lovely weekend folks!
