Clothing is tricky to draw, but I feel like I've had a breakthrough. I typically just draw the folds along the sides of the cloth around the silhouette of a form, omitting the folds in the middle, but I realized there's a pretty simple way to distribute shadow which comes out like folds. Just draw happy little folds. Gotta channel that Bob Ross.
Speaking of shading, I've recently started inking with rOtring Isograph pens, and golly, they're a pleasure to hatch with. Their consistency makes those kinds of lines come out really well. Previously, for most linewidths, my multiliners were Copics, and I still have some I use. The difference appears to be that the Copics are capable of having a certain taper to their line widths, should you flick the pen a certain way while removing it from the paper from a stroke. Occasionally I miss this, but I prefer a lack of it when hatching, which is causing me to lean towards the rOtrings.
