Step 1: Print or Draw Your Template

Either print out the template below or use your MONO Drawing Pens to draw your own. You just need to show a face, arms, legs, hands and feet.

Step 2: Go on a Treasure Hunt

Go on a treasure hunt around your house or garden to find objects that you can use to create your fashion illustration. Here are a few examples you could look for: ribbons, torn up pieces of paper, old buttons, used stamps, leaves, flower petals, sand, sequins or beads, bottle caps or rice. I’m using some leftover ribbon I was about to throw away and a handful of sequins I found in a drawer.

Step 3: Stick it all Down

Arrange your new treasures on top of your figure template until you’re happy with the layout. Then use your MONO XL Liquid Glue to stick it all into place. Let it dry.

If you didn’t cover the head or all of the arms and legs, you can draw on some hair with your Dual Brush Pens and fill in any missing spots with MONO Drawing Pens.

    Your illustration is really quite good, I see that you know a lot about fashion, so I wanted to ask you how I could complement my look at the prom? I would like to look stylish and unusual, but I don’t know what I can add to the image.
