While there are a lot of advanced painting and outline applications out available today, one that consistently ascends to the top among the imaginative group is Procreate. With an instinctive interface and (let’s face it) a modest sticker price, this iPad application is one of my top picks. It enables craftsmen wherever to take their advanced draws in a hurry.
In this article, I’ll go over Procreate’s key highlights, prescribe a portion of my most loved Skillshare classes to acclimate you with the application, and acquaint ways with consolidating it into your work process.
What is Procreate?
Reproduce is a computerized painting application structured only for versatile, which implies it’s been streamlined for you to begin outlining at whatever point the mindset strikes. To utilize the application, you’ll need access to an iPad and an Apple Pencil and download the application from the Apple Store.
The application is most known for having an instinctive work process, where fashioners explore through brush libraries, layers, and impacts utilizing finger signals and altered Apple Pencil strokes. You can without much of a stretch spare, arrange and trade you’re fine art in an assortment of document positions. I use Procreate for the greater part of my structures.
Import and export of files
Multiply can without much of a stretch be fused into your current work process. The application bolsters most significant picture groups, so you can acquire photographs and existing structure records to change inside the application.
On the off chance that you need to wrap your piece up on a PC, you can trade it as a layered PSD document and make the last contacts in Photoshop.
In the event that you have to vectorize your illustration (possibly you’re dealing with a logo, example or hand lettering), you can turn off the foundation layer in Procreate and fare the fine art as a PNG. At that point basically, open the record in Adobe Illustrator and convert it into a vector utilizing Image Trace.
Save the time and design faster
Like most advanced painting applications, Procreate lightens a large number of the basic issues you normally hit when putting pencil to paper.
Slip-ups can be fixed by basically hitting “fix” or erasing a layer. Little irregularities can be controlled or cleaned away utilizing an assortment of channels. The StreamLine highlight guarantees your strokes are smooth and balanced out (this is incredible for originators who need their lettering to look immaculate).
You can likewise discard the tedious procedure of structure out disappearing focuses and entangled rules by hand. On the off chance that you switch on the Drawing Guides mode, you can work out snappable frameworks for a wide range of viewpoints. The QuickLine highlight gives you a chance to snap your strokes into straight lines with your finger, while Drawing Assist will compel your strokes to the 2D, isometric or point of view manage you’ve made.
