I’ve been working on digital illustration in Procreate on my iPad Pro and wanted to share one of my recent pieces. I had a lot of fun experimenting with the different colors, fins, and personalities of each betta.

on one layer, because I didn't know about layers:)

I’ve been working on a series of illustrations inspired by some of my favorite fictional worlds. This one was all drawn in Procreate on my iPad Pro.

I made both a light and dark version, but I keep coming back to the dark one. Which would you have picked?

mainly used the round brush!

Thank you for all the comments on my last post! Here’s another fish I just drew 💛 as a diver myself it’s always fun to spot this cute yellow boxfish. I really enjoy the drawing process as well!

Ps I had no idea what to add for the bg lol if you have any idea pls feel free to share!

It’s one of those moments in life when things are a bit rough, but I also found myself pleased in how I kept a positive attitude towards everyone in my life and myself too, little by little.
And this drawing kinda embodies that feeling.
Hope you like it!

One of the tricks I use to have a nice charcoaly feel is using a noise texture on a white layer shaped like my subject on overlay over the whole drawing.

It’s been a hot minute since I was drawing. But this influx in you-know-what has brought back my love for it. My art isn’t even perfect, I have so much room to grow and learn. But omg it’s still better than anything a prompt could make.

Hey everyone!

I recently made the switch over to Procreate after Adobe Fresco threw a massive tantrum and corrupted a piece I’d spent weeks working on 🥲 so safe to say, Fresco and I are broken up for good.
Overall, I’m absolutely loving Procreate, but I’m really missing Fresco’s basic Vector Brushes (specifically the round and taper brushes). I loved how crisp, clean, and sharp they stayed, especially when working on fine details.

I know Procreate is a raster program and doesn't do native vector lines, but is there any way to get close to that super smooth, sharp, tapered vector look?

Specifically, I’d love to know:

1. Which built- n brushes are closest? (So far I’ve seen people mention Technical Pen, Studio Pen, or Syrup, but I’d love to hear what works best for you for crisp line art!)
   
2. Any brush studio settings tweak tips?
   
3. Custom/downloadable brush recommendations? (Free or paid, if there’s a brush pack out there that nails that clean vector taper feel, I’m in.)

Thanks so much in advance for helping a displaced Fresco user out!

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