clothing the model

Now that I've familiarized myself with the figure and proportions that would make a person look like a Barbie doll in real life I can begin to draw some outfits and maybe stylize the figure a little bit.  I don't necessarily want to draw my own clothing or designs on the figure until I'm quite familiar with the shapes and movement, so for now, I'll stick to drawing clothes and designs from photographs or inspired by other fashion sketches or drawings. 

This website has still been very helpful for my attempt to dive deeper into sketching high-fashion.  I've just been searching for outfits on Google and drawing the ones that appeal to me.  Also, I asked some friends to send me ideas for what to draw.  Some have requested for me to draw their own outfits, celebrities, and so on.  Here are some of the drawings based off of photos that had been requested:

As you (and I) can clearly see, my later drawings are better and more intriguing than the beginning ones.  Improvement comes over time and practice with anything.  Sketching is no exception.

After my experiments with drawing existing outfits, I'll try to figure out the walking pose and begin sketching my own ideas for designs.  A tutorial for the "walking pose" is also available on the same website that I've been using, so maybe I can experiment with that a little.
