    Thanks, great video. As a recommendation I would be helpful to add what type of brushes you’re using in the description please… I can never find the right option!

      @CristinAF  8 месяцев назад

      Thank you so much😊 and I really appreciate the recommendation!! In this tutorial I’m actually using one of my brushes I made for lettering because it hides the shaky lines 😅 You could also use the Monoline brush that comes with Procreate under the Calligraphy set. Here’s a link to the one I’m using in the video: designbundles.net/af/2048331-lettery-smooth-brush-for-procreate-lettering?ref=dH1t9v

    Thank you! I was watching an illustration how to on another “subscribed” site and she skips right past layer, as if we should already understand it. I watched it over and over and there was no explanation given. When I watched your video, I said aloud “thank you”. This was so easy to follow along and you have wonderfully basic information in such an unassuming manner without berating the viewer- thank you for saving me time as I learn the Procreating process!! 😊

This will take my Designs to a whole new level. .I had felt so limited in what I could do on Procreate and knew there must be more.

    I'm still confused. But what is the difference? It looks like you can do all the same things with the different layer options just in different ways. So how do you no which one to choose? For example when is it best to use each one? Clipping mask is a fancy eraser. Mask is like a cookie cutter and the other one is a cookie cutter too but on the same layer so you can't change it after? Is that right 😅

      Thank you for watching and commenting! You are 100% correct! What I love about Procreate is that there are more than one way to do things and achieve the results you want. There is no right or wrong way for any of these if it’s meeting your needs of want you want to achieve. Procreate didn’t always have these features either so those of us who have been using it for years, know steps for getting the same result without the features. So, choose whichever one you’re most comfortable or confident with and play around with the features as you go. ❤

    Good explanation. What I did with the last example was to fill the heart layer and make the inserted photo a clipping mask. That left on the part of the image I wanted inside the heart.

    • @CristinAF
      @CristinAF  3 года назад

      I would draw the picture on one layer and then add a layer beneath that to color on.

    This is a great video to introduce layers to new procreate users! Thanks a BUNCH!!
    If i may ask, how many previously separated layers can be merged together on one layer? And can you undo already merged layers?

    • @CristinAF
      @CristinAF  Год назад +1

      Thank you!! You can merge all of your layers into one if you like - there isn’t a limit on this. You can undo merged layers by using the undo button BUT that only works if you don’t exit out of the canvas and it will only undo the last steps you did so you’d have to undo other steps also. To avoid that, try GROUPING your layers instead of merging them 😉

    I have the 5 generation iPad mini. When I add a second layer to do the drag and drop fill on second layer. It fill the whole screen. All lines are connected. I got the procreate a few years ago, but only could use it for awhile before my old iPad was out of date. The procreate is up to date. I watch another guy. But you seem to explain it better.

    • @CristinAF
      @CristinAF  3 года назад

      Your fill threshold is too high. When you drop the color, don't lift your stylus and drag the stylus to the left until it's only filling the area you want.

    hello! I’m using the app but it still doesn’t seem to be working ): I have a low threshold, I made my photo a reference and I made sure my layers are correct. Is it because I’m doing it on a photo? It works fine on a blank background, but not when I try to edit photos. Thanks!
