Anyone has Tom Ford's sketches? really curious to see his handywork....

 

[ilaughead]

I wasn't around for any of Gianni's work, but that is so vibrant and colorful! Thank you!

^ Same!

This is sort of off topic, but does anyone know want kind of markers they use for these sketches...
obviously each artist can use whatever medium they feel like to convey their ideas better...
but don't they "usually" use gouache or some sort of marker/pens?

any help would be great!

 

[kissmesweet]

You're all welcome! I wasn't around for Gianni's stuff either, but looking back at his stuff: I'm so intrigued!

dashphire I read somewhere on the forum it's called Pantone markers...
But illustrators and graphic designers also use other brands, like Prismacolor and maybe others. Some markers come with 3 tips each, different sizes

Here's a discussion about it at Deviantart
http://forum.deviantart.com/galleries/traditional/261666/

But yeah I think it is traditional to use gouache
We use gouache in textile design
It's because the colours in gouache match the dyes for fabrics best (compared to acrylic, etc. which yield a little bit different tones and shades)

A few days ago, I found this on eBay (item # 140124150060)...and then today I happened upon this old request! Sorry it's not from B@T . I also tried GISing, but couldn't really find much.
