I'm posting on behalf of my 12 year old daughter who has already decided her dream job is fashion designer!
She has produced many, many designs on paper, but presumably this isn't really the modern way? I was wondering what software would be best to use to produce fashion designs on the computer...I'm thinking maybe Adobe products are the benchmark/industry standard for this sort of thing? Maybe Photoshop or Illustrator, or others? Maybe cheaper alternatives?
Also, I'd bet that producing designs using a stylus on a graphics tablet would be an easier, much more natural way to get designs on to the screen, what should I be looking for in an entry level tablet - what with software costs as well, I can see I'm into a reasonable outlay for everything that's going to be required. It would be nice to keep costs down as much as possible of course!
What does spending more more on a graphics tablet get you? A larger area to draw on? More dpi?
If you've got a reasonably hi-res display, how does it work with transferring what you draw on the tablet, given that the tablet's physical area is far smaller that the display?
Thank you very much. Any assistance will be much appreciated. :icon_thumbup:
