What is Life Drawing?

Life drawing or figure drawing is the drawing with pencil, ink, charcoal, paint or whatever you choose of a figure from life. Most often associated with drawing the human form nude.

What is Costumed Life Drawing?

The biggest difference with costumed life drawing is that the model has clothes on, you will be able to see how mail clings to the body, of how a sword is held. In our case, we are also expanding this to not only clothe our model but also bring a character to life.

What will the model be wearing?

Depending upon the theme, the models will be wearing medieval-style costumes drawn from our costume store. Some are historically accurate (HA) others are inspired by the past but made for use in theatre and film. This means their style and construction may not be HA but looks the part just the same. Our aim is to have the model create a character that is interesting to look at and draw. The mail and plate armour are real.
