Beginning artists need to constantly train to paint objects, animals, people, landscapes. To draw pants with a pencil, you need to study the basics of the drawing, understand the textures of paper, master the correct hatching. It is in the future, knowing all the subtleties and techniques, at such small objects that one can learn to portray a person beautifully in a realistic way.
Drawing supplies
If you plan to draw with a simple pencil, you will need 3 types of graphites and a minimum set of equipment. Need to buy:
- eraser;
- pencils of different hardness - light gray and dark;
- shading fabric;
- black pen;
- A4 sheet of high density paper.
The HB pencil in this case is intended to sketch and overlay the base hatch layer. Graphite B3 is needed for medium shading. The B7 pencil is used for rich hatching. Bright lines are used to separate the outline of the figure from the main background.
Strokes shade with matter, therefore, fleecy fabric is needed. Usually it is yellow in medium density.
The gag eraser takes any form. It can be lengthened to a sharp tip to remove tiny details or lighten small elements.
High-density A4 album sheet is needed so that fragments can be erased often without rubbing the sheet. It is known that thin paper, when the eraser is repeatedly removed by the eraser, will be rubbed through, will become clumped and the work will deteriorate, so the sheet should be hard.
Outline and shape
After preparing the workplace, the light from the desk lamp is directed onto the paper so that the eyes do not deteriorate when drawing, and the image is clearly visible, and proceed to sketching. So, how to draw the pants in stages, using the auxiliary lines:
- Outline the silhouette of the object, symmetrically arranging 3 lines vertically. Pants can be either straight or with a slightly tightened leg - the second option looks more beautiful.
- Draw a horizontal curved line at the top of the figure. Below put dashes indicating the boundaries of the legs.
- After sketches, the contours are distinguished, give them the correct shape. The lines make more saturated, draw pockets and zippers.
- The eraser removes the outline without affecting the basics.
To make the picture more lively, more naturalistic, you can add a female or male waist to your pants.
Correct strokes
To make things drawn more realistic, depict folds, patterns, textures. There are soft and sharp transitions. Hatching is cylindrical - (this applies to jeans and similar fabrics), and cone-shaped is used for skirts. There are vertical, horizontal, conical, compound, falling and spiral folds. It is with a spiral-ring technique that pants are hatched. How to draw pants step by step:
- They begin to work on top, superimposing layers in parallel, tightly to each other.
- A uniform overlay of gray color is achieved.
- The folds are worked out with curved lines: first, shapes are outlined, which are then hatched and smoothed around the perimeter.
When the base layers are applied, and the gaps are completely closed, they begin to darken and lighten fragments of the thing.
Drawing light and shadow
Working with folds is painstaking, but over time you will learn how to draw much faster. How to draw chiaroscuro pants:
- The middle part of the legs to the edges is clarified with an eraser.
- The outer and inner sidewalls are obscured by pencil B3.
- The folds have an elevation, so their upper parts are lightened, and the base is darkened.
- Graphite B7 darkens those places that are located far from the light.
- If pants with a belt, then glare is put on a metal buckle.
The drawing is worked out until the artist notices that he brought the image to perfection.
