"Hello, my name is Savago Lome from savagolome.com. I'm here on behalf of the Broward Art Guild. I'll show you how to draw a girl in medieval dress. First of all I start with some hood; make some kind of, you know, oval shape and some triangular shape like this to make. So, now let's draw the eyes; eyeballs, the nose and I'll make her smiling like this and the neck and the shoulders. So it's always all about your character. And now this is her dress; let's say, put on the Charmeuse because a Charmeuse is a very loose fitting so, and add as many folds as you want. This is the sleeves and they usually have the chain here. So let's add some kind of chain here. Here's a cross lining in the middle like this and next step is her hoop skirt. So add some lining to show there is a lot of folds on the skirt, like this. And be creative; let's put on her hand, like this, some basket with some flowers and maybe this hand will be something like this; maybe she's just met somebody and says hello. And let's put the hood ribbon on her head. So we can add as many details as you want. Once again, be creative. And so this is how to draw a girl in medieval dress. This is Savago Lome, thank you for watching."
