Procreate: Creative Illustration Techniques

Procreate: Creative Illustration Techniques

“And that's all. Looking back at what the course has been, the first thing we did was meet. I told you about my career as an illustrator and I showed you my favorite artists. Then we made our first contact with Procreate, doing an overview of its essentials. We prepared the way for our project with some basic notions of composition and color and we learned how to work them with the App. Then I told you about some ways to spark your creativity with exercises, sketches and also the reference images in the illustration. With all of this tied together, we turned our sketch to clean in Procreate. Later we talked about working with brushes, modifying and creating our own. We looked at alternative ways of coloring and as we worked we practiced with volumes, highlights and shadows and used blending modes, masks, and other layer options to enrich our process. In the last few lessons, we experimented with filters and effects to finish the illustration. Once ready, we use the Procreate animation assistant to give it movement. And that's it. Not bad at all, right? Now it's your turn! Apply all the stages of the process that I have explained to you and share in the forum your final project with your process, your creation stages and of course, its final appearance! I hope that you had fun while learning and that all the tools and tips that we have seen have opened a new path for your future illustrations with Procreate. Remember, the important thing is to find your own voice and style. Take what you need from this course and make the most of it your way. Do not forget to share your final project in the forum and I invite you to interact with your colleagues, after all, illustrators benefit immensely from the opinion of our professional colleagues. I will be happy to see your progress and will try to stop by the forum with some regularity to give my feedback . Talk to you soon! ”
