Learn how to take a comic character to a working costume. From analyzing the character to sketching for your body proportions to choice of fabrics to sewing tips, this workshop will cover it all. No sewing involved. Participants will have time and instructor will assist in developing a starting sketch for outfit of their choice. Participants should bring in a picture of the comic character outfit they want to know how to make. If possible, but very optional, participants can bring a 8 x 10 full figure facing front photograph of themselves printed on regular copy paper, to make sketching easier.
