#Looking for effect/technique

Kind of abstract question but not sure where else to turn, currently in the process of making a sketchwork akin to the longsleeve shirt shown below. Just wondering how can I make it so the longsleeve part is engulfed with the print I want to place upon it - like what tool/effect would I use?

If the latter I would simply put a shadow that indicates that one is inside the other and give a sense of depth. If the former, these things are generally documented by patterns makes (Having done a bit of sewing in my days, I seem to remember they will show the top bit folded at an angle on a tiny area, but you really need to check that with people who really know

#

or just indicate that there is a "back" in the top sleeve
See that one where the person drawn the back of the tunic appearing to show that the trousers are inside the flowing tunic

#

if it's really a technical drawing done for the purpose of be used in manufacturing, you should ask people in that business, as it could lead to costly mistakes. Things will need to be done with the expected codes

I mean the print on the longsleeve

#

In the example I sent, the print takes up the entire longsleeve as opposed to just being on one side - I want to replicate this in the mockup I'm making.

#

I'd send what I want to print on the longsleeves here but it's NSFW so I'm just trying to work with the examples I have.

#

so you want to mirror the pattern from the left sleeve to the right?
Caan you show your Photoshop window first? I would like to see the layer panels so it's easier for me to explain

the prints I want to use rn

#

would only cover a certain area of the cloth

#

I want the prints on the sleeves

#

to cover the entire sleeve

#

You woould need to mask, or clip the pattern layer to your sleeve

#

Oh ok

tawny vessel
#

Let me screenshot something quick

#

See my layers panel and how it staks

#

See how the pattern is clipped on top of the sleeve (Sorry I can't see much on your photo, a screenshot is always best)

I think I messed up lol

#

I've just been adding transparent images and dragging them into place

#

I'll try your way

tawny vessel
#

Select the pattern, right click and choose "create clipping mask"

#

The pattern needs to be exactly next on top of the sleeve

#

Alright

tawny vessel
#

This is how it looks before it's clipped

#

and after

#

see how the pattern is restricted to the sleeve

neat shadow
#

Tysm,

#

so i just need to make a seperate layer for the sleeve

#

and then make a clipping mask

Ok thanks. This is my first time doing anything like this so it ended up kind of noobish lol, I'll make the amendments now.

If you want to do it properly, create everything ththat is separate (tee shirt, front panel, sleeves) as separate entities
