Can somebody explain to me a way to make realistic clothing? LIke details of a shirt or pants? I know all you really need is the Dodge and Burn tool, but i can't get a technique down to make realistic looking folds or wrinkles... thanks

First draw black lines where you want to have the fold, then you can blur then heavily which creates a folding effect. now you can use the burn tool on the color layer to strengthen the 3d effect
als a nice way to make realistic clothing is to add a texture layer...  find a picture of texture and place is over the clothing layer.. set the transparancy lower and adjust the foldings, flatten the layers and look at your realistic clothing

Well, I'm afraid you're simply going to have to learn to draw folds, and some practice with Photoshop's drawing tools helps, too.
No trick, no button to push... Study clothes.

Basically, you just have to know how fold fall in real life. You need to know the basic shapes of folds in different positions and know the lighting. Where it's brighter and darker. It pretty much comes down to your basic drawing ability rather than your photoshop knowledge. So, like Affected said....Study clothes

Find a Sears catalouge (or any clothing-oriented catalouge) and just sketch the people inside. Study how the light reflects off certain areas, and how the shadows are darker in others, thus when you get to the photoshop stage, you'll have better judgement when it comes to the dodge/burn stage.

I drew pictures of the nice underwear ladies in the Sears catalogue, but my mom found them and grounded me!  |

| Hmm... Maybe 'nice' underwear is not a good thing to start with (especially with parents around and you're young). |

As jasonN said you need to learn where folds would fall and their basic shapes. I wanted to recommend that some of Lee Hammond's books are REALLY helpful in doing this. I believe her book on drawing fashion models covers folds in great detail. Though her books are aimed at people who are creating the effects with a pencil and paper I've been able to convert them easily enough to work on the computer.
