Easiest way to drape a simple blanket over a figure?

[tin shed gamer]

Matt,
Your going at the green stuff from the wrong angle.Your trying to start with blanket and shape it.Its not a blanket its just slopes and triangles blended in.If you can wait a couple of weeks I'll Pm a tutorial to you.If you prefer to use paper then the simplest method is to use basic lined writing paper the type you get in A4 pads ,and water.Wet your square of paper apply to your dolly,use a wet brush to create the folds.Then dry with a hair dryer.No mess, no fuss,no dangerous fumes.easy to reposition.Job done time saved .

I wouldn't call it the "wrong" angles as the results of Silent Invader's results speak for themselves.  But I would however be interested in your tutorial.  Any chance of a post instead of a pm?

.....Any chance of a post instead of a pm?

I second this haha

I was looking at doing a couple of similar items so will post how I tackle the issue here too. I think I shall do a basic skeleton out of old sprues and then work the green stuff around it using photos to help get the feel. Although this will be more sculpting than needed. :/

Yes, the more information, the merrier.

Its clear that this has every chance of stepping on someone' s toe's.So no I won't do a public tutorial.Fram if you want me to run through it then I will.Matt As I've already said you can come over for a painting tutorial,I'll extend it to sculpting as well.

Well, I started this thread and for whatever its worth I don't think a sculpting tutorial will be stepping on anyone's toes.

If you really don't want to post it, then yes, please PM it, but it certainly doesn't feel fair for me to get that while everyone else is excluded.

You know I'm happy to do tutorials,But I'm still getting grief over the plane.I'll send you one,then its up to you fram if you post it.But I'll be out the loop.I joined a forum for fun,Its a pain at times.I' m in no mood to have more commissions pulled.
