Artist's Comments

The first half of an instructional piece done for class- I planned to do the next half on gentility and courtesies but, of course, I'm in college. I never have time. I meant to make him look less like, oh, I don't know, a man from the 20th century gussied up in 18th century attire, but I was more rushed than I would have liked on his face.

Quick Cautionary Note: this was for a project in class, and is in no way meant as something to be referenced by other people. If I was putting together a guide to costuming that was an actual tutorial, I'd be referencing period illustrations and extant garments all over the place. This is decent, sure, but you're much better off looking at the real stuff.

How dapper! This is really cool -- I love 18th c. male garb, it's so fancy and proper. <3
YOU DRAW AWESOME. Just so you know.

The battle of the sexes will never be won or decided... there is too much fraternizing with the enemy ~ :XD:

Oh hell, this brings back memories of when I was drawing/researching 18th century clothing. I over all loved to draw the wigs and breeches. Love how you did this.

Okay this is the best thing I've seen all week. I once had to do a blueprint of something unusual for a graphic arts class, and I did a dandy! But yours is MUCH more detailed and fabulous. An automatic favorite. :D
:iconbiodiversity:
great style.

Time is Life. Life is measured in Time. So wasting other people's time is committing murder, while wasting your own time is suicide.

Everyone knows the bicorner kicks the tricorner's ass.

It's effing SCIENCE.

Also, pompadour forever. ,|,,|

That hand-signal makes no sense via text.

A completed signature would suggest that I'm capable of being active on DA and willing to submit the time to contributing to the community.

... Damnit.

looks real nice to me.
:iconpachycrocuta:
Wow, that's great! The linework and lettering hits this nice spot inbetween an actual period illustration and a modern one.
:iconaudley:
This is without doubt the coolest "guide" I have ever seen on this site or in the entire universe ever - wonderfully done (:
