The BASICS : Folds + Wrinkles

Published:
91.4K Views

Description

I've been thinking about making this for a while now. It's meant to seriously attack the BASE problems and issues beginners have with folds.

There are LOTS of tutorials and stuff out there for folds and wrinkles, but most of them go straight to like, "Examples of x x and x folds" which people then copy instead of learning to understand WHY folds are the way they are and are painted the way they are. This then just breeds bad habits with wrinkles and folds.

I hope this helps mitigate that issue ^_^; Again, i'm not super great at this, but I hope this can help people. Remember the only sure fire way to get better is to observe and draw from life!

Check out the other BASIC Basics:

As for fold tutorials i DO like? Check this one out once you've got the basics down! B) No point in reinventing the wheel from here XD

For the most part this Tutorial happened to be quiet clear with what you wanted to get across. Of course the pain point in this is to practice and reference so to get a better understanding of what a Artist is working with.

This Tutorial may be more useful to those seeking a more realistic art style. Not that it cant help those who aren't realistic artists.

The only problem I personally had was following your instructions. I got somewhat lost if it hadn't been for your jokes I probably would of lost interest easily! So i'm glad you added humor. Other then that its a fairly useful Tutorial just like your other ones! The main point you've given in all of them is to practice. Practice makes perfect! Its better to get the right ways down first hand then the not so right ways and be stuck then relearn skills.
