But if this drawing will eventually be uploaded to the internet, or maybe become clipart for example, the t-shirt can overlap the top of the trousers. Or if the t-shirt will be partially transparent, they will need to meet precisely. For example, if this drawing will be made for screenprinting onto clothing, or for some digital cutting process, the place where the bottom of the t-shirt meets the trousers will need to meet precisely. Some of these things can be decided by the ultimate purpose for your drawings. These are all things, that with some practice (maybe a lot) will become easy!

Why do users tend to colour drawings on a separate layer? Is it possible to place one identical line in another without any noticeable change or is there a way they can share this common segment?Ĭan I alter stroke weight for only part of a path? I have thought of copying only a section of the path. Without trying to draw the top line to match the tee - whenever I try to butt the two together, the lines they However, they are not enclosed shapes and to colour I draw two rectangles. The two lines up end on the T-shirt line. After drawing the T-shirt, I draw the lines for the trousersĮach leg being three lines (two up, one across bottom by ankle).

Say I'm drawing trousers with a overhanging t shirt. When drawing the lines, and knowing that only end nodes can be joined, is there a way around this scenario. Currently I'm completing the lines in one layer and then colouring on a second layer by composing shapes, colouring and then obscuring some shapes with others. Im using it for going over drawings I've scanned in with the intention of colouring.
