Hi there, its not the actual drawing of the clothes that i find too difficult, its making them look realistic by using 'folds' i have trouble getting the shadows and highlights right, and also where to position the folds. Any tips or tricks that can help? Anything would be much appreciated!

Yeah you could probably google a tutorial or 2 on it. But what I think would be best is if you just got a few photo examples and try to capture them on paper yourself. Do that until you can't anymore, and then do it some more. Every day. |

There's a section on folds (drapery) in the Illustration resources. |

anyone who has a problem with drawing needs to lay off, if your girlfriend is going to hassle you about something like that, either help her understand, or say adios. People that think you're wasting your time, or "doodling" will drag you down from reaching new levels of what could be a great artist. |
