Film Sketchr has posted a fantastic new article that features an interview with costume illustrator
Phillip Boutte Jr. and artwork that he created for Marvel's television series,
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. In the interview, Phillip discusses what it's like working alongside costume designer Ann Foley on translating comic book costumes for the television format.
Phillip Boutte Jr.: Ann's design process always starts with what is real and a lot of research. She studies the comic character's look, then turns to fashion and history to translate the character's look into reality. I really appreciate the amount of work she does to get a character just right. She also, very much so, cares about the source material which is a big plus on my nerd radar. She wants to know that the character will be recognizable to fans but she also wants to make sure they look like they fit into the world without being too over the top or too overly designed. She balances that nicely so it makes it easy for me to illustrate the characters that I love so much. I feel like the designs are always respectful and don't stray too far away from who the character is.
