Join us as we dive into the upgraded Ellipse Tool in VStitcher, unveiling its potential for creating stunning variations of bell-shaped skirts. We'll recap the key steps from the tutorial and explore how these innovations can elevate your patternmaking game.
The tutorial kicks off with a full 360-degree bell skirt. By utilizing the Ellipse Tool, users can easily calculate the diameter and create a perfectly fitting shape. The video walks you through the steps of inserting the ellipse, adjusting the radius for the skirt length, and seamlessly integrating it with the top. The result? A beautifully flowing bell skirt with a full circle shape.
Next up is the 180-degree bell skirt, designed for those who prefer a bit less volume. The tutorial demonstrates how to create half of a circle using the Ellipse Tool, adjusting the sector field and radius accordingly. The step-by-step process ensures precision in measurements, resulting in a skirt that perfectly complements the top while offering a noticeable reduction in volume.
For a more subtle bell shape, the tutorial guides users through the creation of a 120-degree bell skirt. By dividing the circle further, designers can achieve a unique look with less flare. The Ellipse Tool simplifies the process, allowing for easy adjustment of the sector field and radius, resulting in a skirt that strikes the perfect balance between volume and style.
The final variation introduces symmetry into the skirt creation process. Using the 120-degree shape as a starting point, the Ellipse Tool empowers users to craft a skirt with four equal pieces. The tutorial demonstrates how to leverage symmetry to enhance design efficiency, creating a visually striking skirt with intricate detailing.
The upgraded Ellipse Tool in VStitcher opens up a world of possibilities for fashion designers. Whether you're aiming for a full 360-degree flare or a more subdued 120-degree look with symmetry, this tool streamlines the design process, offering precision and creative flexibility.
