I’d like to share with you some of my art I’ve been doing with my iPad Pro of a story I’m developing, so this are just like concepts from the story involving my own original characters.
The story will be about Tori (the girl with glasses and who is the main character, inspired by my wife) and a few of her friends, and everything will be about a type of paranormal creature hunter/investigator from Mexican and Latin American culture, she will be an average high school girl; by pure coincidence she will find herself involved in these adventures. These are images, practicing and detailing my art more and more, and I really like drawing shiny clothing, as you can see 😅.
Feel free to share your opinions, as I hope to complete my comic book one day, and maybe even one day it’s officially published. Let me know what you think and what I can improve on.

It’s a regular Comictober over here! Used the Schulz brush here which I really enjoy.

This is my first model I'm making and I want to make sure the images are conveyed well in the silhouette. Ik this isnt the vtube/live2d subreddit but I need a different point of view.

Criticism is welcome

im trying to animate on procreate and then importing to vn editor to edit but when i import the animation, it gets blurry and kinda fuzzy:(

my canvas is large enough (5050px x 2030px) and im animating at 6fps. when i import still drawings from the canvas, it displays it fine on vn but its just a small portion of a 2 second animation that gets blurry. ive tried turning off the alias thing but its blurry even when i export from vn. strangely the original animation i saved directly from procreate in my camera roll isnt blurry so is vn compressing my animation? please help!! 🙏🙏🥹

Decided to finally try my hand at one of those art tutorial reels that are always coming across my feed, I learned some new things and I'm very pleased with the results.

I like to colour in and want to transition to digital. I’m really struggling to do this on Procreate.
Usually I just Google X Y Z colouring page and upload it but it just work as colours don’t ‘mix’ they replace as in once colour over another the top colour replaces the bottom layer colour so can shade properly etc.

I know this is a procreate page but does anyone know of any other iPad app I can use to upload images and colour in? Or how I can achieve this on procreate.

Thanks

Looking for a sparkle brush or something to illustration the glitter seen here and in old school Disney animation

Trying something super new for me after watching some YouTube artists and feeling inspired (mostly SamDoesArts)…
Lots to improve on but definitely making art feel fun again after feeling so scared to push myself and try new things for some time❤️
Open to friendly advice from all you art gods🙏

hey everybody, facing a tough choice here with purchasing an ipad to use it for digital drawing with procreate. i have been working on getting my online art shop back up and running and im needing a way to draw digitally in order to make some of the things that id like to sell. i currently have a screen less drawing pad that hooks up to my computer but i can’t pay to keep a running photoshop subscription to draw digitally so i have to use free drawing programs i find online, and the quality of the work that im able to produce using this method is just not up to par with what i know i can make using the same setup and photoshop or procreate on an ipad. i used to use procreate with an ipad for many years before i eventually sold the device. my primary concern is that i cannot reasonably shell out more than maybe $300 for the whole setup (tablet, pencil, and paper screen protector) — i normally don’t buy any of my electronics new regardless. i’ve been looking at some refurbished ipads online and my dilemma is this:
- 2019-2021 ipads are consistently retailing for $100-$150 which i think is reasonable for my budget (i think i would lean more towards a 2021 model)
- 2022-2024 ipads are consistently retailing for $350-$400
- a brand new ipad is $425

so anything newer than 5-6 years old will run me nearly as much as a brand new device, in which case it would make more sense to just buy a new device that i know will run smoothly for the next few years. but i cannot justify that price tag. however, i have heard people talking about a significant decline in processing power with older models since apple phases out ipad updates every 6 years. and at that point im scared that the older models won’t be able to handle procreate as a program and i’ll run the risk of the device crashing and overheating constantly which will lead me to lose any work that isn’t saved.

does anyone have experience with currently running procreate on a 2021 iPad model or older? do you experience lagging/crashing/overheating? what do you use it for? any suggestions much appreciated! 🙏

While i had all layers selected, I somehow ended up shrinking the size of the entire piece by a ridiculous amount. then procreate just...decided that I can't undo anymore. I don't know what to do, I have been working on this for so many hours and now it's just gone. I feel so ridiculous. Is there any way to like... restore how it was or something? I have the time lapse and everything, so it would be so weird to me if it isn't possible to go back and edit it or something. Please help me 😭

Is there a way to at least move this out of the way?

Feels like I over-polished some parts that are meant to be less detailed and kinda out of focus, but still.

I’ve had a new iPad for a month now, but my old iPad still has all of my art on it and I wanted to factory reset the iPad and give it away to a family member. How can I safely save all of it in their original form with all of the layers? I already have most of it saved as PNG’s when I shared them online and to friends.

Will saving them all as a .PSD file better than saving them as a procreate file? Does the .PSD format like compress them until I import them elsewhere? Will there ever be a risk of future corruption (they’ll be backed up on multiple things, but I’m still worried of that happening). Should I save them all in Google Drive and then back them up on usb drives?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just want to preserve everything in their original form without worrying about corruption or losing them all D:

Made by myself :)

I’ve mostly used the Overland brush on this piece, you can find it on the pastels section within the software.

An older piece but one I’m still proud of! Sorry for the trauma

Any tips for shading in tattoos on skin? I’ve tried different brushes but can’t seem to find one that works.

Been adapting my technique/style by only using lasso tool to define shapes and gradients in order to add colour, I quite like it…means I’m not getting bogged down with detail rendering.

The first eraser i show doesn’t change opacity, but the second one does. How do i make the first eraser behave like the second one in terms of opacity?

Had so much fun doing this one. It’s easier, of course, when the subject is something you like 😜
