So I'm studying folds on clothes. I've been reading Josh Reed's folds tutorials to understand how they work.

For now I'm focusing on the drawing part only (rendering will come later). I want to be able to represent correct volumes only with outlines but it looks kinda flat and unstructured, just random lines...

I need critics:
What can I improve?
What are your methods for representing folds?
Share pictures of artists that you like the style (related to the topic) if you have them.
Also if some of you want to try and reproduce the original image with their own style, you're welcome.

Pretty good, but there are some areas where you just threw some lines in without thinking about it. Be more direct and try to draw a 3d shape, don't just make it close enough, unless you're going for a specific style.
Also it's really hard to draw folds with only lines, especially materials like silk which have prominent shadows, highlights and ambient light. Practice with painting to get used to it.

you might want to play with pressure and line weight to communicate the kind of edges you're trying to describe, areas with buttoms overlay everything else, and folds close to it are more tight

also, you did some scratching at some points, if you do, you should follow the actual form instead of doing paralel straight lines (lazier and not troughtful approach)

Yet, all this if you don't want to do it skipping to paint or render values

hey berserk guy, didn't know you are into trans

The clean and crisp lines make me think of Hans Holbein the younger's sketches.

I think drawing folds with only lines is very possible, but requires a solid understanding of perspective, as it is otherwise hard to imagine what happens in the parts of the folds you dont see.

Keep it up.
