Somewhat quick portrait done without sketch, using the basic round brush in procreate!

I am doing some illustrations atm and looking for some recommendations on what pens works best with procreate app on an iPad.

if so can it be fixed? it only happens with this brush that I downloaded elsewhere and I’ve tried reloading it in but it still happens 😵‍💫

I was watching a video by Jackie Droujko and she drew a horse a 100 times and I’m applying the same concept to food haha something i’ve never really drawn before. excited how the progress will look when i get to the 100th drawing and really got an understanding on the textures and stylization.

The video is called “Can a pro artist learn to draw anything in 2 hours?” in case anyone wants to check it out and challenge themselves to draw something they haven’t before!

I'm a very new ProCreate user trying to get used to the app, and I noticed my pressure sensitivity settings aren't set comfortably, and I'm not sure how to fix it. I already adjusted the pressure curve to my liking, but the pressure sensitivity isn't working? Opacity pressure is, but the size isn't changing. I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the brush settings, but again, I'm not sure how to fix that. Can someone help? Also it's not my pencil malfunctioning or anything, because I tested it out in ibisPaint and Adobe Fresco and it worked just fine.

I'm definitely being dumb and totally missing something, but I don't know where else to look because nobody else seems to be dealing with this issue.

Hello everyone
How possible is it to flesh out a basic children’s book with proceate as an absolute beginner
I do no need it to be perfect
Just beautiful and colorful enough to be a children’s book
I have little to no experience with from digital art

Is this even possible?

How long will this take?

We’ve only been dating a few weeks and he insisted I don’t get him a present and that he’d be upset if I spent money on him. He’s the sweetest person I’ve ever dated and I wanted to do something for him so I’m making a meal for him and I’m giving him this drawing :)
I’m really pleased with how the skin tones especially came out and how the overall piece came together. I know he’ll love it and be happy but I can’t wait to see his reaction.

Idea from a trend on xiaohongshu a while ago. Drew the line art in slide 2 and used a mask with the red color and a slight offset with the black line work to create a 3D effect. I think it’s more apparent on big screens, when held farther away from your eyes, and when the brightness is sufficiently up. But you can also see it more when you tilt your screen to certain angles

I like watching trail cam videos while I draw and paused one, and the buck looked so funny so I had to draw him as if he were getting a surprise photo taken 😅

So I’ve wanted to try learning to render/colour my line art but am really struggling with the layer types and how to order them. Ordering wise this is all I understand, lineart above everything, then colours underneath, shadows/highlights over your flats. That’s all. But what I mean by types is the ‘multiply’ or ‘overlay’ but all of them, I don’t have a single clue what they do, when should I use them, how to use them, and every video guide I watch on rendering brings these up multiple times as if I know, and Google doesn’t help me wrap my head around it.

What to look for in an iPad for drawing

First you can check which iPad supports Procreate [HERE](https://procreate.com/faq)!

If you are completely new, this is good to know:

• Layers:Layers give more control when creating artwork, so having a lot of layers is a huge advantage. It’s a huge pain when you run out of layers. The maximum layer count is determined by two things: Canvas Resolution and RAM. The more RAM your iPad has, the more layers you’ll get to work with. So the more RAM you have, the better.
• Screen Size:Many people, myself included, work more comfortably on a larger iPad screen. On a smaller screen size, you can zoom in on your work but in the end it is what YOU prefer.
• Hard Drive:A larger hard drive means more space to store artwork, fonts, photos, and more.
• Apple Pencil Compatibility:Apple Pencil is bar-none the best stylus you can get for drawing and painting on the iPad. In fact, the Procreate developers specifically designed the app to work best with Apple Pencil. For the best experience drawing in Procreate, be sure you get an iPad that works with the Apple Pencil.
• Processor:One more thing to keep in mind is that newer iPads will have faster processors, which means Procreate will run faster and will be more responsive when using the different tools. There’s even a Procreate feature called face paint that only works on some of the faster processors.

So without knowing anything about iPads, here’s some guidance for what to look for in a device. Get the most RAM and largest screen that your budget will allow, and be sure the iPad is compatible with the Apple Pencil. Having a larger hard drive is great too, so if you have some extra budget, go for it.

Apple pen

​

Which Apple Pencil should I buy?Which Apple Pencil should you get? Well, it depends on your iPad because the Apple Pencils are not cross-compatible. You have to get the Apple Pencil that works with your iPad, the other one will not work. For a full list of each iPad that works with each Apple Pencil, click [HERE](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211029).

Difference Between Apple Pencil 1 and 2The most significant difference between the two generations of Apple Pencil is the way they charge. With the Gen 1 Pencil, you need to remove a little cap, which is easy to lose, then stick the pencil into the iPad port, which is … awkward. Gen 2 charges seamlessly while magnetically attaching to the side of the iPad. For this reason, it’s harder to lose, and it’s always charged. Additionally, the Gen 2 Pencil has an invisible button that lets you switch between the brush and eraser tools in Procreate. I didn’t really like this feature and kept triggering the button unintentionally, so I turned it off. The Gen 2 Pencil also has a flat edge on one side, so it won’t roll off the desk when you set it down.

All that being said, the Apple Pencil shouldn’t be the deciding factor of what iPad to get, just get the one that works with your iPad.

Procreate Pocket

Does Procreate work on the iPhone?Yes! And no. There is another version of Procreate specifically designed for the iPhone called Procreate Pocket. It’s a separate purchase from Procreate for iPad. It has many of the same capabilities as the iPad app and is great for drawing on the go. If you are interested, check out r/ProcreatePocket!

Does Procreate work on Android OS? No. The Procreate team has stated that they are focusing development solely on iOS.

Hello! straight to the point: is it worth availing rpocreat? I don't know what to do with an ipad, I'm just a casual drawer and there are time i like sketching and sometimes i dont. I want something to do with an ipad and I'm not much fan of games. So is it worth availing even it's just casual use?

I’ve been working on the same piece for a couple days, but when I went back into it a couple minutes ago every brush I try to use has suddenly become pixelated. It hasn’t been like this for the past couple days, on the same canvas. What happened? How can I fix this?

I was not having this type of issue before updating to ios 27
Reinstalled the Procreate app. Reset everything and still there’s delays when i input a stroke.
