The Cosplay Life Drawing Masterclass
Masterclass · Day 4 · Sun 25 October 2026, 5:00 pm – 6:45 pm · Aljada, Sharjah
The Cosplay Life Drawing Masterclass offers artists a dynamic opportunity to develop their figure drawing skills using live cosplay models as reference. Led by comic book artist and filmmaker Ashraf Ghory, artist and writer Shannon Eric Denton, and artist Gus Vazquez, this session focuses on capturing energy, attitude, and storytelling in every pose—essential skills for comics and visual storytelling.
Key points include working through a series of timed poses inspired by comics and pop culture, receiving practical guidance on gesture, anatomy, and composition, and refining a final piece with direct feedback from the artists. By the end of this masterclass, participants of all experience levels will have gained new techniques, greater confidence, and insight into drawing alongside professional comic artists.
