Clothes for Doll

  

OK, we have body, hair and face for our doll.  Now we will make clothes for her. It` the most interesting part of work. All depends of your imagination. I will only give some advices for you to have a general idea what to do. 

 

This is the image (three layers):                                       And this is several color schemes:

 

                                            

 

You can choose colors yourself or find in Internet. There are a lot of websites with color schemes. For example, I`ve got this scheme at Josie`s Dolls. I will use the first one.

 

 

Our image consists of three layers: body, lefthand and righthand (see previous tutorials). Make BODY layer active.  Choose Draw tool (Point-to-Point, Width = 1, Antialials, Vector and Close Path checked,  Foreground Color - the second color, Background Color - the third one). Draw the basic contour for a dress (new layer will be added automatically):  

 

 

Or, if you work with vectors confidently, you can choose Preset Shape tool (Ellipse, colors are the same) and draw the ellipse. Then choose Object Selector tool, right click on the image, choose Node Edit option from menu and edit the dress lines. 

 

 

 

After you are satisfied with results - Layers/Convert to raster. Name this layer as "dress".

Now add some shades. 

Add new layer "dark shade". Choose Paint Brush and the first color from the sceme as foreground color:

 

 

Draw some dark shades like this. Don`t bother if you draw outside the contour, we`ll correct it lately.

 

 

Blur/Gaussian Blur = 5.

Go to "dress" layer. Selections/Select All/Float

Selections/Invert. Go to "dark shade" layer and hit Delete once.

 

Add new layer "light shade". Choose the 4th color and draw some light shades. 

Blur/Gaussian Blur = 5.

Go to "dress" layer. Selections/Select All/Float

Selections/Invert. Go to "light shade" layer and hit Delete once.

 

The rest is at your opinion. You can add textures, use filters, fill with fabric samples and decorate your doll any way you like. Besides you can use any photos from fashion magazines as the sample for clothes.    

 

 

 

Have a nice PSPing!
