Drawing from a catwalk

So in my 2nd lesson i was thrown into the shallow end of the course and told to draw from a catwalk, HARDEST THING EVER! john if you're reading this make the first years do it, its so useful for getting them to draw fast in split seconds!

Its a really hard techinique to get, mainly cause you literally have 2 seconds on each model before you have to change, and the colour palette you have to use is so broad, so it helps to have a hand full of colours at the ready to be able to change fast without fucking about too much, I'll post a few pictures of the work ive done, only the good ones obviously!

If you're going to try this, its also best to start adding some base colors down first, a lot of runways will go through a colour scheme, so if the first outfit is blue, then dash the blue on for your next figure before you draw any figure at all! its makes the piece look more finished rather than rushed, plus the fact that the colour isnt even inside the whole figure looks brilliant, nice finish to any fashion sketch.
