![]() ![]() ![]() I really like using brushes and tools to create effects that they weren't necessarily intended to create. To make a perfect line, I hold my pencil in place at the end of a stroke and it snaps into a straight line. You can learn more about using Quick Shapes feature here. Once I've drawn in the texture with the Grain Shader brush I choose a smooth edged brush (like Monoline) to erase one edge. Using a regular eraser can make sharp-edges, so I often use this technique when I need to draw something very soft but with a defined shape like clouds, smoke, or a reflection on a mirrored surface. To constrain the gradient to the shape, make sure the layer you're drawing on is directly above the shape layer in the layers panel then tap the layer and select Clipping Mask. You'll see in the video below how I also use my brush opacity to soften the edges of my gradients and shading too. ![]() Using the Grain Shader brushes as textured erasers can help adjust density and depth or can make it smoother or rough. When I add gradients, shading, and textures, erasers are as crucial as brushes are. I'm using the standard airbrushes included with Procreate to add the large background gradients and True Grit's Grain Shader brushes for smaller details that I want to have more texture. Once I’ve finished making all the objects in solid shapes, it’s time to give them life! Tap on the top shape layer in the layers panel and select Clipping Mask. To apply a clipping mask, move the shape you want to clip above the shape you want to constrain it to. I like to use this tool to make shapes overlaid with different colors. It allows you to set visible boundaries of the graphic and hide some portion of the image. Watch the video below to see it in action.Ĭlipping masks are an essential tool in Procreate and Photoshop and all other design programs. My work is very geometric so even when drawing organic forms, I often use Procreate's Symmetry Guide. Next up, I start drawing my organic shapes, in this instance, the human silhouette that forms the central figure in my composition. Scroll through your folders to find the shapes you've saved to your iPad. To import a shape, tap Actions > Add > Insert a photo. To speed things up, I've saved a collection of pre-made geometric shapes that I frequently use to my Photos app so I can quickly import them into my Procreate canvases as needed. I always start my process with the big, bold shapes and finish with the small details and textures. The first thing I do after the sketch is placing the big geometric shapes into my canvas. I'm not too precious with my sketches and it’s always quick, simple, and easy to use. I used the 'Sketchbook Pencil HB’ brush from the True Grit free Sampler. ![]() I develop the sub-objects or background during the sketching or even while coloring. I make one centered visual with the key message and let the other components come naturally. So whenever something pops up in my head, I always try to put them in a rough sketch in Procreate. I'll be breezing through some of the technical stuff but if you've got a handle on the basic functions of Procreate and Photoshop you'll do great!Īlthough music and nature are my biggest inspirations, I get many ideas from many other random things in my daily life. In this tutorial, I will show you the process I typically use to create my work sketching, drawing, coloring and texturing in Procreate, before adding finishing touches in Photoshop. I love the energy I get from them both and I love to transform them into my art. Music and nature are always the biggest inspiration for my work.
