Romantic Europe meets NYC: the ROBERT GELLER thread

[GBear]

The design portion is probably going to be the toughest part. Learning to draw is easy, just mileage and practice. And learn how to use copics on vellum (TBH, I don't like the Canson Vellum he uses, LOL!).

If you can't draw reasonably well, I'm pretty sure it'd be a waste of $20

Why? You're still learning.

Im willing to give it a try on this course, however i dont have any expertise AT ALL in fashion drawing. Do you guys think I could take the risk? (im mostly considered cos of the price)

What do you have to lose? Other than 20 bucks.

Merely my opinion.
I meant *If you can't draw at all* then it might be rough.
Not so much if you can draw reasonably but are not great at drawing garment technicals.

But whatever.

IMHO, other than cost, there are no downsides to taking any class; always something you can learn. $20 is a steal...unlike these Art Center prices...

i know this has been asked 1m times but what's a good proxy for rakuten/yahoo japan? gotta stop missing stuff i want because i haven't looked into this

 

[wurlwyde]

fromjapan.co.jp is super reliable. It can be a bit spendy, but I've had no problems with them and they're pretty much all automated, so there's no waiting for a response.

 

[automorph]

+1 on fromjapan. Little pricier but super efficient and you will save huge on customs duties

Speaking of Y!JP, a guy is selling the dotted and striped leather gloves on there for pretty cheap:
http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h184810757

I'm hoping they fit when my striped pair arrive.

FYI I just noticed he has a recent negative feedback for a pair of the gloves due to scratches/gouges. Hope my pair is not too bad.

There's also a used 46 long plaid on rakuten for under a bill.

Dumb question but I have a dip dye that's too big on me. What would happen if I tried shrinking it in the wash a half size?

I got that fishtail parka off redit, heres a quick lowquality image.
Really nice, glad someone posted on here, because I would have never gotten a 52 for that cheap.

I was like, those are Geller jeans??
But then I realized they are the Richard pants from the sample sale and I feel much better.
