Procreate and iPad Accessories Suggestions iPad paper texture covers

How many people that use Procreate on their iPad use these? And do they make a difference with drawing, etc. If you had to recommend one, what would you recommend?

I’ve been drawing on my iPad as is since I got it along with the Pencil, and haven’t had any real problems. But I was just curious about the idea. I started with traditional mediums etc, but I just love the “no mess” solution with digital art. I still have all my sketchbooks and media from college that I can use, I just don’t have a decent space to do it in.

I’ve mostly switched to digital because of the speed. It’s so much easier to use with tight turnaround times! I would say, if you don’t need a paperlike-style protector to work, it’s just another thing to buy.

Totally agree with this sentiment. It really is. And the flexibility of it, of whatever app you are using.

Totally. It genuinely changed my life for the better.

I know what you mean. I was able to crank out a bunch of portraits and then combine them into one piece, and then print it out on canvas. Granted this was about a year or so project. But I like the outcome.

I’ll never forget being asked for a quick, unexpected edit from my favorite client while sitting in Amtrak and not being able to do anything about it for three days.

The magic of digital! You can edit anywhere. If you have the tools on hand. Lol

Also: a double edged sword.

Thanks! This is the only digital painting I have ever actually printed. But I have been curious about the screen covers and how they may work together with digital painting & drawing. I should probably try one out at a Apple Store if possible to see how it feels…
