hi everyone I am Summer welcome to my channel i want to share with you today my understanding of cloth patterns and pleats when we draw the character design often draws some folds on the character's costume the wrinkle treatment is when we draw the character design a commonly encountered problem and this video is going to be shared my wrinkled understanding the main content in the video is as follows including the formation of cloth patterns types of common cloth patterns pattern of cloth and how to summarize the complex folds in clothing when the human body is wearing clothes the way cloth is drawn and finally I'm going to show you a little video of how I drew the pleats let's take a look first pattern formation i understand the formation of cloth patterns fabric is a relatively soft material after being forced will be at the force point produced a certain deformation like this complex stack of folds and the folds that clothing forms on the body it's also affected by forces there is gravity in nature so a material like fabric it's fine on a flat surface or is it worn on a human body or subject to gravity gravity will give this fabric generates a downward pull there is a downward force if the fabric is placed on a flat surface the flat surface will give a fabric an upward support the same is true for the human body clothing is worn on a person's body on the human body it will also have a certain supporting effect on the fabric that's why the folds we see are formed we can take a look a piece of cloth is supported from below with a stick the fabric is affected by a bottom up force this force has a tendency towards the top the fabric is also affected by gravity that gravity and an upward support the two of them will have a mutual pulling effect due to a pull and action between these two forces that's why you make a fold like that where the folds occur mainly around the fulcrum force the stressed point more obvious folds will form the folds near the stress point are also the densest the part away from the support force the folds will gradually spread out and expand the folds in the character designs we usually draw it's not just pure force the shape of the usual paintings the faults will be more complicated there are some common forms of stress in addition to gravity it also involves air or wind when we draw characters we can increase the wind and make the costumes and capes float there is also physical exercise causing some mutual pulling of the fabric that kind of pulling it will also form some cloth patterns and folds on the fabric also extrusion will form folds the human body moves during certain dynamic times it also creates a crush on the limb for example when the arm is bent it creates a local area of compression between the forearms then obvious folds will form in this place so that's our usual wrinkle formation next let's take a look at the common types of cloth folds the most common occurrence on the human body it's this kind of divergent folding these folds are mainly found in the joints of the human body the armpits and this part of the crotch of the pants i'm using different colors from this picture the fulcrum forces that form these folds and the direction of the folds are marked because of the deltoid muscle in the shoulder there will be a bulging relationship clothes are attached to the shoulder area it will have a support from the inside up so in the shoulder part will form this blue area a fold that extends elbows and shoulder folds are the same like the folds of the red and pink parts mainly due to a bend between the armpit and the arms the wrinkles formed after the fabric is squeezed this is the most common type of divergent folding we mainly need to remember their location what kinds of wrinkles are caused by each place so when we draw the characters later it is also easier to draw this fold with more accuracy so what happens next there is also a fold in the shape of this U this kind of wrinkle mostly appears on the chest of the character especially the stacked collar designs like the female characters do will be more common and the cape handsome knights the kind of cape worn by women you often come across a fold in this U- shape this part is easy to understand folds form due to the influence of gravity the fabric will have a sagging relationship at the same time in the shoulder part it will produce some support for the fabric due to the pulling up and down of support and gravity it forms the U-shaped shape we see then women often have this reclosure folding form the fabric has a certain weight after being exposed to gravity there will be a drooping relationship then this picture and it's not just a drop fold that hangs down there is also an oblique U-shaped fold this is the same as the collar we just looked at and the shape of the cape is the same when painting women's skirts it's more of this radiating form from the waist down the most troublesome it's this last spiral a fold spiral folds usually appear on the sleeves and trouser legs the process of painting requires a certain structural simplification then we can start from the position of the force point of the shape see which part is more stressed an area that has more influence on this shape strengthen these areas tiny folds are simplified or even emitted then this will make the shape look more comfortable the main thing is to consider the rhythm relationship of the whole shape then we can take a look at do styling what way can cloth pleat be expressed here are some common wrinkles maybe this picture is not particularly clear we can simplify the pleat with a few strokes in the form of letters you can use W type or Z type or Y shape to draw folds then this picture I use a sloping W shape understand it in a similar way as for what exactly is the tilt angle of this W this mainly depends on the part where the fold is located that we drew and I'm going to plot the fold of the body based on its internal structure this must be paid attention too we can also transform this W a little bit that is to say we don't put this the W shape is fully integrated we can use an I shape and a Z-shape and that's when we did the line sketches one way to draw that can be used quickly and easily determine the location of the folds we can also use zigzags and these for wrinkles these are the more common ways of drawing and what happens is it's like a pattern induction the clothes we usually see in reality the pleat are still relatively large and fine a character's design it's not possible to draw the folds exactly according to the photos in reality because there are too many folds there are too many small and broken things and the main and secondary pictures are easy to blur so we need to do some simplification of the folds we need to make some observations of the reference map then on this picture obviously there will be a lot of fine and very small folds these are the sorts of things that we might observe but when you write really painting try to avoid these as much as possible we need to generalize the main folds that's like our reference mat now the body is shown from the side we need to know which parts are the more important wrinkle forming areas what are the folds will affect our judgment of the internal structure of the character first of all the part of the shoulder affects our judgment of shoulder width then this place is relatively important the position of the junction of the forearm and the forearm then this place can't handle it well there may be problems with the length and proportion of the upper and lower arms the waist part is also a relatively important position the waist is the area where the torso connects to the pelvis then this place is also the part that affects the shape of the inner person at the same time the position of the elbow is also a very important point for the human body so these are the points we need to focus on when painting and the rest of it and the crumpled folds you can choose according to an overall density relationship in the screen according to this logic and we've tried to fold this up a little bit first the position of the shoulders is what we need to perform this place the shoulders have an upward support and that creates a divergent fold that spreads downwards then this place needs to be sketched the armpits also produce one a fold that diverges from the inside out that's what needs to be reinforced and the arms and the waist too and we're just going to do a quick sketch of them heat heat [Music] in this way the folds of this picture are extracted mainly to strengthen some key joint points find the location of the key points draw the effect of these dots on the fabric the body clothing part or use a drawing to illustrate some of my ideas i'm going to start with the male body common characters are wearing shirts are more commonly worn by men then let's go draw a shirt first a shirt is a clothing worn on a relatively inner layer so we ray going to start with him the collar wraps around the neck when we were painting draw the collar thickness a little bit draw a little bit on a relationship where the collar is folded and you can think of that as a fold [Music] open the neckline the collar on the other side also has a certain thickness the thickness of the collar should also be taken into account when [Music] folding because shirt collars are usually stiff while painting you can use some short poly lines to express [Music] The collar is usually made with a small corner instead of going straight down Because the neck of the image body will have an oblique angle the collar goes through and there's a certain bend in the trapezius muscle area that's one reason we drew this [Music] [Applause] [Music] section you can make this dress fit a little tighter the part near the deltoid muscle a bulge of the deltoid muscle it has a certain impact on the sleeves there will be certain folds on the sleeves elbow the elbow joint is also a fulcrum that bulges outward so in the elbow joint it also produces some radial folds we can make it a little fatter for the cuffs usually the cuff is there will be a tightening of a relationship so in the sleeve part the race structure of the forearm muscles can be reflected through the folds the forearm is tilted at an angle there is also a certain squeeze between the upper arm and the forearm this part will produce smaller radial folds from this point in the middle there's a radiation relationship going out the same goes for the [Music] armpits the sleeve part in the armpit is usually relatively wider we can make it slightly have an outward bulge it's radiating folds going [Music] up when paintings pleat the length of the line can be slightly different if this dress fits the body better the lattice seam is dorsy could be drawn [Music] flattering the waist part is bent to a certain extent so in this place it will also cause a certain extrusion on the fabric will form a divergent fold from back to front down to the [Music] hips this place will have another bulging [Music] relationship clothes can be designed to be put in a belt style [Music] thoracic [Music] bulge link waist structure take some in the pectoralis major is holding up [Music] there is an obstruction on the shoulder side you can simply deal with it [Music] the line of the placket can be slightly undulated you can draw it a little more virtual fold the belly button a little bit the pectoralis major is raised in the part of the pectoralis major the relationship between a force that pulls sideways so you can draw a little less horizontally pulling folds buttons can be added in that case our men's shirts will be finished mainly to analyze which places the fabric of clothes will be affected by the internal structure of the body and enough to wrinkle so as you can see from the top of this picture this dress is still relatively thin because in many places the lines are drawn lightly so it gives the impression that this shirt is relatively thin then we can give this roll add a slightly thicker coating let's compare the different materials of the paintings what are the differences between lines of different thicknesses then we can use this dress as an inner layer of clothing usually when drawing character designs he also wears his shirt under his suit then next let's go and put a suit over the shirt change a color the collar of the suit can be designed slightly wider heat heat heat heat [Music] the lines can be made smoother don't make too many small jagged lines make the lines as neat as possible when painting due to the difference in thickness of clothes fabrics so there will be some differences in the form of folds the number of folds will also vary if the fabric is thicker it is not easy to form particularly fine folds the area of the fold will also be relatively [Music] small [Music] heat heat [Music] [Music] try to make the lines as sure as possible and Draw them as solid as possible in this way the coating will appear that the fabric is harder this is different from the feeling of the relatively thin shirt inside we just drew you can compare it because at the beginning we drew shirts it's a lot of little brush strokes and then there will be some dotted lines at the same time there will be some changes in the lines there will be a lighter feeling the wrinkled lines will also be relatively long describe this fabric due to the relationship between some internal structures of the body there are also some pulling relationships of force which are easy to form more obvious deformation so it's just a little bit softer a little bit thinner like a thick fabric affected by force the resulting deformation will be relatively small so draw with relatively solid polar lines it is easier to show the relationship between the harder fabrics this is also how we distinguish the thickness of the fabric women we can also make a shirt just do a quick sketch it should be noted that the female chest bulge pulls the fabric unlike men's shirts women's shirts produce noticeable lateral pull folds on the [Music] chest heat heat [Music] some folds pulled horizontally drawn lighters in this way the thinner shirt will feel out then we can try to draw another one a material for sweaters for a sweater it will be relatively soft and the shirt we just drew and the harder and thicker materials like suits there will still be some differences it is relatively soft so when we draw the shape use curves as much as possible to do curved shapes [Music] the pleat on the chest are made lighter we can see through the weight of the lines the virtual and the real come and go to express the fabrics of different clothing we need to pay attention when painting different materials because when you draw the line you can determine your picture what is the texture of these objects in the picture we can use the method of drawing a line draft and then applying a flat base color then layering the dark areas and finally using a color lightening layer to enhance the bright areas to draw relatively simple folds the following is the way I draw the pleat of clothes with relatively more pleat it is helpful for you who want to learn digital painting skills heat heat [Music] n [Music] heat hey hey hey
