some outfits for SHADOWEYES 3!

it really slows me down when i have to come up with outfits on the fly when i'm drawing a comic, so i like to make up outfits ahead of time. it took me several books before i started doing this, partly because i was much less particular and meticulous about the fashion in my earlier work, but over the years i started spending way too much time making up outfits. if i came to a scene and i didn't have an idea for an outfit, it would grind me to a halt so i had to figure something else out.

for Wet Moon i don't do drawings like these, i use photos or snippets of photos as starting points. but for Shadoweyes since it's futuristic i like to make them up myself.

i usually don't use every outfit in a book, sometimes they spill over into the next book, or don't get used at all, or get combined. anyway, here are Kyisha, Noah, and Sparkle (characters not to scale!).

Wow, where did you learn to create this sort of thing? Do you study fashion magazines?

hmmm, not really, no, i just make them up and do what i think looks good!

i do pay attention to fashion in real life though, not magazines, like people on the street, what people are wearing day-to-day, and then with that foundation it's easy to spice it up into this fantasy/futuristic kind of attire. :)

That makes sense. I've been watching your dA account for quite some time now, and how you manage to dress your characters in a way unique to each of them without repeating the same outfit (outside of a scene/situation) never ceases to inspire. Carry on!

Something about off the shoulder for all is just so alluring and you do it so well.

This is a smart idea! i think i will steal it. Designing outfits is like my least favorite part about creating characters/comics. Id put everyone in a t-shirt and jeans if i could get away with it.
Also what fantastic outfits. if you ever decide to go into fashion design i think you'd have legions of little punk girls clamoring for your fashions. ;)
