Project Description:
Gesture Draw with your magic bean method, draw the costume, exaggerate the proportions by using photoshop's liquify and warp tools.
Use the Liquify Tool in Photoshop to push proportions even further.
Exaggerate Shape- think about the action of the character and emphasize that part of the drawing.

Claudia Pimentel - Push the pose! Changing the LOA here makes for a more dynamic position and changes the pose up!
Claudia Pimentel - Here the shape and bend of the Bean has been changed to create more weight, tension, dynamism!
Claudia Pimentel - Often times changing the LOA will change the Bean and vice versa!
Claudia Pimentel - Pose changes do not have to be huge! Subtely goes a long way; look at the emotion changes between these two poses!
Claudia Pimentel - How one gestured pose (sitting, slouching) can become another (pain, frustration, regret) entirely!
Claudia Pimentel - Pose Exaggeration doesn't have to be extreme! Subtle changes can still affect the whole feel and energy of the pose. The first gesture is simple, static, plain to reflect the model's pose. Just exaggerating them to lean back more on the toes and adding more motion in the coat adds much more to the energy and character!
Claudia Pimentel - Here the LOA difference is not huge but the emotion change is! In this pose, pushing means exaggerating the gravity and the drag/slouch to heighten the feel of the drama!
Claudia Pimentel - Draw THROUGH your gestures, dont' be afraid to keep it messy and loose to find where and what kind of pose is most succesful.
Claudia Pimentel - Remember that the Character and all of their nuances evolves from gesture sketches! You may be surprised who develops :)
