To recolor (the last tip in this video) there’s another way too. I use it ALL the time. You can go to the third menu on the top row (the S shaped one) and select automatic select and select the area you want to recolor. You can even copy that into a new layer and work with it as much as you like and then completely delete it if you don’t like it, blend it, lower its opacity etc. It’s way easier than the quick menu in my opinion.

It's for fine detail work wrinkles shadows

Another tip: for fine-tuning slider and handle amounts (like in brushes, tolerance, select and move, or liquify, etc.) while holding your pencil on the screen, move the pencil away from the handle or slider in a 90° angle and the further away you move it from the interface element, the slower the amount will increase or decrease.

how do i postrize in procreate the image please

@JMulvy

@@hippolytanine2852 I don't know what that is. Do you mean posterize? The only way I know how to do that is in Photoshop because it is a built in filter Adobe owns. Procreate does have gradient maps under the effects menu (magic wand). You can duplicate an existing map, then tap the gradient itself at the bottom of the screen and set your own colors and tones. It will then use the value (intensity of dark vs light) in the selected layer (so if you want to do the whole image you need to duplicate the canvas into it's own layer) and use the colors in the gradient map. Hope that helps!

Dynamic brush size was the best tip for me!

That trick for more layers is actually genius.

Omg! I didn’t know that’s what Dynamic Brush Scaling was for and I’ve been wanting that forever! It’s incredible how much is hiding in Procreate no matter how much you use it.

If you swipe left and select all layers you can merge them at once 🙂

Great tips! There’s yet *another* way to recolor, and that’s by dropping the color swatch somewhere and then holding the pen somewhere, then drag sideways to adjust the amount of tolerance.

You don’t have to back out to the gallery to rotate the canvas. You can do it with two fingers just like or while you are zooming/scrolling

Really solid tips, especially the dynamic brush one !

@jaywalkerpictures

Glad it was helpful!

When you copy canvas, you can paste immediately and it will be on a new layer automatically. No need to have one ready which it won’t copy to anyway.

The merge hack irresistibly reminds me of "ping-ponging" audio tracks in the extremely old days of multitrack tape. The exact same tradeoffs in terms of committing to decisions/undoability, except of course there is no perceptible degradation of the merged result, at least to my eye. Interesting to me how certain procedural aspects of creativity can persist across media, tools and genres.

Wow that Dynamic Brush and Recolour will change a lot for the future, I thank you humbly for that. As I was watching I realized you didn’t use the group flatten or adjustment on a group layer. What you can do is put everything in a group, click on the group layer and press adjustment and it will adjust everything in the group. To add that you can swipe right on a layer and select it (unlike the select option for the canvas but select the layer itself) from here you can select multiple layers and you have two options, delete all the selected layers or group them. If you group them then you can flatten the group just like merging them all together. However don’t get carried away with this. If you use blending modes and merge two layers with separate blending modes, then you will lose all but one of the selected blending modes, really ruining your layer. You should only merge layers of the same blending mode Also Instead of pressing gallery to rotate the canvas … you could … just … rotate the canvas by pinching and turning it with your fingers in the drawing 😅

Turn on the gesture touch on the smudge, so every time you smudge the screen you’ll smudge your drawing carefull This help me a lot to faster switching between thoose tools

You can select a group to merge all at once. Just put everything you want merged into a group together, then flatten the whole group in the layers menu.

Love the tips. 🎉. Especially the private layers. Instead of merging all the layers use the copy canvas under the wrench, add… paste in new layer.

Tracing has been used by both art students and professionals for hundreds of years. Some of y’all really need to get off this “tracing is cheating” train. If it’s utilized in art *theft* then it’s understandable (and expected) to frown upon it, but tracing as a learning tool or even compositional aid has been around and acceptable a lot longer than Procreate’s hidden layer. This ignorance of the practice’s historical roots is why I guess colleges still insist on making art students sit through _Art History 100_ but clearly, some of us skipped classes…👀🫣😅

I’m confused by what you said about brush size being 10% of the canvas size, wouldn’t that mean at 100% it would fill the screen? I always thought it was dependent on the brush settings. Some brushes will fill the canvas, others not so much, and it’s also made more complex by the pressure settings in the brush studio. Really helpful video! I just think the brush sizes is a little more complex than just being a percentage of the canvas.

the copy canvas 'feature' is the reason why procreate will never work for me. applying adjustments to multiple layers without merging is fundamental in digital painting

Dynamic brush scaling off makes no sense to me. Procreate's % size is not calculate based on the canvas, but the min and max size defined in the brush settings, which in turn relate to the used tip form.

Hey, love your videos. I am from India. So basically I doing my studies and all, and side by side I also doing digital drawings.

And one day I will pay you back for sure. Thank you for your time love you.

For the LayerLimit "Hack": Instead of copying the file and merging all the layers by hand, just export a jpg or something similar (check file compression) and then import it again as a new file and you save yourself the time. Also it flattens all the layerstyles (which could be a problem when you merge single layers only a few at a time)
