So this isn't everyone, but here's the first 4 summer school uniform mock-ups. I kinda wish I could have gone all out and done some crazy cool anime uniforms... but they go to an American private school, and while lots of crazy stuff happens in this story I wanted to keep a sense of reality to it so the simpler the better. I could have gone with plaid skits and pants, but I felt that for the tone of the story, and for the ease of design, black was better. But what do you think?
I went through a lot of other ideas when I was first formulating the uniforms. Here's some of the concepts along with some other sketches.
It's a funny thing to come up with so many complicated designs and then settle on the most plain of them all, but I think it's important to run through all your ideas first instead of just going with your first choice.
I agree. Simple is better. I think the black and white allows you to focus on developing each character's personality without overemphasizing design. I have to admit I do like the winter coats that you designed. :] Maybe you could do a variation on the coat (plain color) with the school emblem?
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to this project!
thanks, I'm glad that you feel the same. The winter coat/blazers for the uniforms will have more detail for sure.
ReplyDeleteI like how that one girl has spandex under her skirt! Very practical! Love the designs!
ReplyDeleteI love your drawings even though I don't really read mangas (particulary the last one with the cape).
