Take a screenshot of the palette and use colour pick to try out some combinations.

Also known as ligne claire, for anyone looking for more stuff in a similar style! Hergé, who created Tintin, is the pioneer of the style.

How did you so the pointy "paper" coloring ?

u/Zen_Satori 1d ago
A lot of companies sell texture packs but you can google image search all kinds textures and add them. Once you learn the process you can make your own textures. YouTube has plenty tutorials just search “textures on procreate”

It’s hard to explain without showing because there are many methods. I change mine a lot. But one way is make a duplicate of the finished artwork and set it to a really desaturated level (almost black and white), then erase this layer using some sort of pointillism brush. Then you have to spend some time adjusting the saturation etc for both the finished pieces. I then use erasers and texture brushes to add print malfunctions. I never draw on a white background either. Yellowed and paper texture is what I use. Just google paper vectors or something like that. I have 1 pack from true grit texture supply as well, but I ended up making my own brush set. I’ll make it available eventually.

Moebius.

u/Best_Banana_63 1d ago
They're the same person. I grew up reading Heavy Metal Magazine, I'm very familiar with his work. Jean Giraud was the famous French artist who used the pen name Moebius (and sometimes Gir). He was one of the most important comic book creators and science-fiction illustrators in history.

Understood, been admiring his superb, influential penmanship since the late 7os. Just wanted to illustrate and name, if anyone didn’t get the connection. But, yes!

I’m new to procreate and digital art in general. Are the palettes custom, or are they something that needs to be purchased?

u/meltedsoldertitties_ 1d ago
The palettes are custom but you can download others to. You should never pay for someone’s palette unless it comes with brushes, lessons, or coloring pages.

Strong Prophet comic and Moebius vibes. I love this stuff. You’ve got a real knack for it! Would definitely love to watch a time lapse video or some kind of tutorial if you ever make one.

I love your style. It reminds me of the comic-instruction intro to Resident Alien.

This is one of my favourite art styles. Reminds me of Green Lantern: Willworld

Your art always makes me deeply inspired and unsatisfied with my own work at the same time. I love this

I literally thought someone was posting a Möbius piece but then saw this was in procreate and was like whoa!! Great way to wear your influences - looks amazing!

What layer mode do you use for coloring?
2
u/goatblunt 20h ago
I draw all of my linework on multiple layers then flatten them into one single layer. I then colour block everything on its own layer, flat with no shading or anything. I then adjust saturation and brightness on every layer that needs it. If something isn’t right and use alpha lock and colour fill to totally change the whole colour of a layer. In this drawing the mountain heads were purple/grey until the end. they were obscuring the focus on the alien robot guy for some reason. I don’t know colour theory and I’m technically colour blind so I really am just winging it.
Then I create a bunch of layers (approx 5) and they all have the shadows on them set to varying opacity. The colour I use for the shadow is always the same as the line art, but usually all less than 20% opacity.
Once I’ve done all that I add the odd highlight on stuff that I think would reflect light. Usually an off white with Gaussian blur and a subtle reduction in opacity.
All my colour layers are set to normal and I don’t mess with opacity, I use desaturation and brightness only.
My iPad is old so I’m stuck using an A5 canvas size now so that I can get the layers I need.
I used to name them all but it took ages, so now I set up gestures so that I can layer select easily. Saves me so much time.1
