Very cool! I just wanted a straightforward tutorial to make a lettering brush and you delivered! Thank you! 😃😃😃😃😃

Thank you very much.. After searching for few days how to create own lettering. I finally found you. I am really a beginner and starting this hobby is really expensive.. Saw so many tutorials but yours is the best.. Not only for free but easy to follow... Saw a lot of tutorials but at the end the brushes are for purchase to use ... Thank you very very much.

Thank you so much this was absolutely perfect !!💛💛💛

Love how thorough and informative your videos are - extremely helpful for beginners like myself. One question I have is, is it not possible to create pressure size / brush strokes without an apple pen? Im using an apple pen dupe and not getting the same thick / thin results as you on 3:07.

Sorry unless the product you have says they have pressure sensitivity, then it won’t work. Most/all fake apple pencils don’t have pressure sensitivity

My Procreate 5.2.9 version does not have the "streamline" option under "StrokePath" "Brush." I googled it and it actually is found under "stabilization" with a lot more options: Streamline-amount, Streamline-pressure, Stabilization-amount, Motion Filtering-Amount, and Motion Filtering-Expression. Can you direct me on the best settings to achieve the brush demonstrated above? Thanks!

Thank u so much for the video, everything was so clear to understand and to do, the only problem is that I don’t understand why when I write the brush seems just a normal brush, the lines are all thick. I thought that it’s maybe cuz I have a Logitech pen and not an apple pen but after searching it got out that they are the same🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m really confused..

hit the wrench then hit “prefs” then hit connect third party stylus and choose yours. (Apple Pencil is already automatically connected)

Ok super new to this! I have a knock off Apple pencil stylus because I wasn’t honestly sure if this was something I’d be into! I have followe you instructions, but CANNOT get think and thin lines. Does this only work with Apple Pencil?

Thanks for the helpful video. I am having trouble with my custom brush and the tilt. To get any thickness in my brush I have to write with my Apple Pencil almost completely parallel with the screen. If I hold the Apple Pencil normally the brushstrokes are incredibly thin even with the size increased to max and pressure. Also the pressure isn’t working unless I turn my pencil to its side. Can you help with this?

The pressure isn’t working. I’ve tried countless tutorials, and I follow every step and the pressure remains the same with my brushes. It’s just one solid thick line. There is no taper on the ends- only a line with the same thickness throughout. I’ve tried so many guides and watched a ton of videos and I have no idea how to get this to work.

Me too. I noticed the only difference between my screen and hers is the "response" in "apple pencil" tab is at 30%. I do not have that on my procreate. Its the newest procreate available as I just downloaded it since I got the iPad pro. My lettering doesnt change when the strokes change. Its the same size through the strokes. Instead of it being skinny on up strokes and fat on down strokes.
