OW: Shell Jacket Effects
Explore how to create a hard shell and insulated ski jacket
In this course, you'll learn to create two types of shell jackets: a hard shell jacket and an insulated Ski Jacket. By the end of this course, you'll be able to understand and apply these workflows to similar garments.
We'll start with a detailed written guide for the hard shell jacket, covering the basics of garment creation. Then, we'll move on to adding features like linings, facings, a hood with a peak, and zippers.
Similarly, the ski jacket begins with a written guide to help you build the foundation of the garment. We'll then move on to adding features like a detachable hood, snow skirts, snow cuffs with thumbholes, and a buckled belt with a 3D trim.
Check your retention throughout the course with two knowledge quizzes.
