I feel you haha I been painting on my IPhone for good minute now I’m tired of getting those nasty hand cramps 😂 finally made the move to get myself an ipad!
Small tips: one, definitely get a pencil grip, because they're the same size as normal pencils it's pretty easy to find one that works for you. Next up! there's customization that allows you to disable the tap to eraser thing. (which can be a lot.) For the pencil visibility, I would turn on the brush curser. And just a heads up for the matte protector, if the grain is too deep it can actually damage the tip of you pencil, so just keep an eye out for that. So glad you like procreate!
Do you know if all matte screen protectors damage the tip? As in, would you say it's better without one? I'm getting my iPad today and don't want to get a matte one, only to damage my Apple Pencil the first thing I do.. 😅 Thank you so much for all the tips!
@@tillyk3721 every matte screen protector wears down the apple pencil tip more quick that normal screen protectors, but it is not a big deal every tip wears down, apple sells apple pencil tips and those are not expensive, it is better to choose a matte screen protector for drawing.
The biggest pro argument that made me buy an iPad instead of a drawing tablet was the fact that I can draw everywhere and am not bound to draw at a desk all the time, which for me is great and I keep drawing in bed all the time. The 2021 iPad pro also has a thicker screen than the older ones because of the new XDR-Display, that’s probably why with a screen protector drawing gets a bit more wobbly. It shouldn’t happen with the 2020 and 2018 ipad pros.
It should also be mentioned that procreate supports animation as well! It’s fairly basic but it’s very intuitive and you’re able to draw with all the same tools which is great. I struggle to find any ways where it’s noticeably inferior to photoshop, but in the end it costing $10 blows photoshop’s overpriced ass out of the water
How to fix those wonky lines: Tap on the brush you’re going to use to open up it’s settings, then edit the steamline. This will determine how smooth and strait your stroke will be.✍️
Another thing I like about procreate is that it's more user friendly, it's not overly complicated, yet it's almost everything that photoshop tries to be
Here's a tip that I just learned for my iPad. You can connect a monitor via the usb-c port and this will allow you to work zoomed in on the tablet while seeing the whole project evolve on the monitor. Enjoy the new iPad!
Tap with 4 fingers to make the interface disappear and reappear and pinch and let go quickly with two fingers to make the canvas fill the screen the best that it can😎
With procreate on the iPad you can adjust the streamline of the brushes which will help with line smoothness especially if you use a tempered glass protector, you do it by opening the brush settings, I use it with having tremors and it helps me put out the art I wanna create!
Thanks a lot for posting your video's. I know it's a weird thing to say to someone who's part of their career is posting video's but I still think it's important to hear that you really are appreciated and you bring a unique angle to what you do that really inspires and helps me on my own art journey. Keep it up.
that ipad is freaking huge, mine is the 10inch one so i can’t imagine having almost 3 extra inches to work on i would get lost in my own screen haha. 3 fingers swipe down gives you a quick little copy and paste menu, 4 finger tap puts you almost in preview mode? it takes away the toolbars. i definitely figured these both out accidentally xD
Seeing this video reminds me of how I felt when I discovered the app back in 2012 and I can tell you that I have not looked back. Had purchased a Wacom tablet a year prior and it gathered dust for a while after. Now using it with Apple Pencil is even better. Welcome to the Procreate club bud! Regards from your neighbour from Montreal 🇨🇦
6:17 i also find it difficult to have accuracy because of how the apple pencil is designed but i just turn on the brush cursor and i’m fine so that could be a suggestion :)
Yessir! Ever since I got my iPad, it has really been the only thing I use! It's just suck a slick experience using it. 10/10 Glad to see you join the team.
Same here! Tried all sorts of art software and once I landed on procreate in addition to using the apple pencil, I never looked back! It's easy, accessible, and portable!
@@tristanjnwilliams Thanks so much, will try it out some day. I use Photoshop and illustrator with the Huion Graphics Tablet, you connect to the PC. It works well for me. But, would love to experience the pen to screen feel. Thanks again. 😊👍
I’ve never used photoshop, but I’ve been on Procreate for maybe 18 months? Honestly your Pros and Cons made me giggle, exactly how I feel 😂 I can’t use other programs now, they don’t let me double tap to undo 😅
I bought the Ipad Air with Apple pencil recently too and even if I think it's a good tool to have I feel way more comfortable,faster and productive on my pc with a keyboard and the Kamvas 22" plus... maybe I will get used to the ipad but I don't think I will upgrade to the pro and get rid of the stationary set up... desktop/laptop set up is still the king for getting business done 😄
I thought my screen protector was causing a wobble too, but found it’s most likely an issue with the iPad’s digitizer, since it’s a lower resolution than the screen itself. It usually only causes the wobble when drawing slower and diagonally. But hey, if a matte protector helped you out that’s great! (And maybe I’ll try it too)
Hey Sam. Thanks for great videos. If you have any guestions reguarding Procreate, feel free to ask. I have been soloing on Procreate since 2012 with all my private and client art. My biggest tip for you in Procreate is to set up the guesture-controls, and espessially Quick-menu to touch! This will replace your hotkeys from PS. You can customise 6 things to put in the Quickmenu, and trigger them by just a flick og a finger in the 6 directions. Ive put 2 of my fav brushes, flip canvas, paint, erase and alpha-lock. This will just make the workflow in Procreate SO much better! Cheers, Nikko
I wanna see you draw with a small cheap tablet. I know it’s (very) possible to make very good art with it (cause alot of artist have done this video ideas). I’m just... throwing out ideas. *wink* *wink*
I just got the same iPad as a graduation gift! I've been wanting to try Procreate out forever, and although some things could be improved it's amazing✨
Me with Procreate and Apple Pencil- idk Procreate seems to make my drawings look cartoony so maybe photoshop is good, sees this vid oh ffs what do I do now
Lmao these are his first impressions. I get what you mean. You technically can do more than cartoony stuff, but some programs do make it harder than others if you're not already a master
@@MistaManlyGuy like when I draw traditionally they don’t look cartoony but when I draw in Procreate they come out cartoony so I’m just there like tf do I do now 🤣 I wanted to get a drawing tablet for photoshop because I thought the program would be nicer plus I watch slot of kienan lafferty and his drawings look incredible on photoshop soo idkk
Yeah. I can draw traditionally, but not really on my iPad 😂 I haven't practiced a lot, because I focus more on painting, but for me there is just less accuracy. Experiment with all the brushes until you find something that clicks! Or try to make your own. Sorry if this tip isn't helpful, idk how experienced you are.
That's what I thought when using procreate on my first time, procreate are for drawing stuff and photoshop are more for painting, but then I try to organize my painting brush and setup my own shortcuts and now have no problem do realistic style on proceate.
I think its not comfortable enough Ibispaint is better and has many things but it has an ad on the canvas (u can pay to get rid of it) soo thats a minus
Android gang rise up. i use medibang too and it's very intuitive, except for some features being put under "brushes"(lasso, smudge, blur, etc). Also has handy onscreen shortcuts.
I’ve found my self drawing on procreate a lot, when I do something on my iPad anything at all I try to undo stuff with a 2 figure tap. I’m like “why isn’t it working!” “Oh..yeah this isn’t like procreate 🤦♀️”
Sam trust me, you’ll come to learn that there is SO MUCH you can do in procreate. I am pretty much at the point where I can do anything in procreate because I know the features like the back of my hand. I hope you enjoy it!!
Hi Sam, you can import your brushes from Photoshop to Procreate, what you need to do is just save all your brushes with the extension .abr file, send to Ipad, open Procreate and go to brushes > import, and open the .abr file.
I haven’t seen any people do this but in the procreate gallery of your drawings if you zoom into one it basically creates a slideshow that you can scroll through.
Aaahhh woww!!!! I would love to see ipad tutorials too!! We would love too see u use other apps and give review bout them too 💘💘💘💘 Love youuuu!! All the best!!!
Agreed the base brushes are the best of any included-with-software, but for real, Sam, PLEASE try Max Ulichney's brushes sometime. It's not that you NEED other brushes to make good stuff, but his are SO finely tuned and feel so good to use. I'm sensitive to the feeling of abstraction/separation with digital tools and his brushes are my fav. for feeling almost like real media with no mental separation between my intention and the result. Really glad you're enjoying procreate! Thanks for the video!
Sam, I loved the video but can we also talk about how your voice is one of the most soothing ones ever and you should try being an ASMR artist as well? 😭❤
Been working with Procreate on my 2018 iPad 6th Gen since May 2018. Glad I started with Procreate, since I had no prior experience. I also upgraded to the new M1 12.9 iPad Pro and I'm loving it! Great video I can only agree on your points!
I also have an ipad and im just starting to learn how to use Procreate. I dont have professional experience with these kinds of software, so I watch tutorials on youtube about it. Its pretty easy to use after that and I enjoy drawing. The reference feature is my favorite because its very helpful because i sketch through observation 😅
If you want to make straight lines in Procreate draw the line, circle, square or triangle(as far as I know that’s it) and hold. It should make a straight line and while holding you can move it to different angles if you want. Another way to do it is using Drawing Assist. If you go to Actions(wrench) then to Canvas you’ll find it. Flip the switch and press Edit drawing guide under it. There you can make grids and do symmetry stuff. Hope this helps someone! 😊
I have used Photoshop since 2001 with Photoshop 6.5 and through my Multimedia diploma, and just use in general. I use my Kids 10.2 iPad 7th gen with Procreate, and it it really excellent. I still need to wrap my head around gestures. Not having name tabs for functions. Its an excellent App.
For people who use tempered glass and are wanting more stable lines, you may try adjusting the stabilization amount of your brush in the settings. It helps draw really straight, smooth lines…
btw you can make the interafce disapear completly if you tap with 4 fingers and you can also connect your wacom pencil to procreate if you wanna use it instead of the apple one- i think it was prefs> connect third-party stylus
sam, get ready to do the two finger tap when you mess up on paper and then realizing what you did when it doesn’t work. i do that all the time and the disappointment on my face is just something else
The Paperlike screen protector is a good option as well :) As the name implies, it makes the surface feel more like paper. So your screen gets protected AND the normal screen isn‘t slippery like it is without a screen protector (or just any other screen protector)
Before Procreate I used to work on clip studio paint for desktop. I watched a couple of tutorials before trying the app, and I was shocked at how easy everything is. All the features I need are 3 clicks away tops, and it's super easy to set up and change.
I think the same. I star drawing in Photoshop, but when I buy and IPad Pro and star working in Procreate is difficult comeback to Photoshop. Thanks a lot for your words and review
ah sam nice that you like procreate so much and i definitely agree !! you can actually turn off the double tap feature or like change it if you want to! also you can choose in the procreate settings to show the brush cursor to get rid of the "not sharpened pen" feeling :) hope this helps!
Thank you for this video! I'm looking forward to buying an Ipad in the future and you gave me all the information I needed. I guess moving from real-life sketching to digital art will be kinda awkward but hopefully, I'll get used to this.
You can also use two fingers to tap/double tap , it undo’s mistakes you possibly made, and is a really useful gesture :). Also three fingers to redo things you accidentally undo. Those are my tips for you!
The problem with some matte screen protectors is that they can dull out the screen quality and color which could be a downside. I'd recommend a plastic screen protector even though it's not anti glare or has that paper feel texture but it really depends on what you prefer more.
Don’t use any glass or full protector, i did also at start, but the mat protector will lower the resolution and change a bit colors. I removed all of that and got used to default iPad very quick. I use it professionally as a concept artist every day, never got back to my 27 cintiq since.
There are some places where you can buy a rubberized sheath to go over the Apple Pencil, and there’s tip covers also that you can look for online. I don’t have any of these items, bit I do know other procreate artist that do. Oh, check out some YT videos for iPad Pro accessories is where these items are shown.
I just love Procreate and I have the cheapest model of iPad 2021 and the 1 gen Apple pencil. It's so easy and userfriendly. I mostly use it now and rarely Photoshop anymore. I got paperlike on my screen and I love it.
Thanks alot dear , i was thinking alot of having i pad or tablet instead of my computer for digital art beacuse using computer alot effected on my arm soooo much and my neck so i neeeded to stop all kind of art for 4 months even if skitshes so this vedio encourage me to go on buying an i pad and just keep the computer for graphic designes so less stress on my arm , i appreciate your help for giving me more informations i was scared if i regret using it or not
I find the pure sketching experience with the notes app the best among any device existing , it replicates real drawing with a 2b or HB pencil so well, Procreate is great though and this is what I use daily
Make sure you turn off iPad’s True Tone. That feature uses iPads sensors to tint the screen with orange and blues (as well as brightness/darkness), but Procreate (and any other creative app) registers the actual color being used. This is similar to doing a color painting with tinted glasses. As a result, if you try to print your finished painting or send it over to a different device like your desktop (which does not use True Tone in most cases), your art will either seem more orange/blue or darker/lighter than what you see on your iPad.
If you tap four fingers on the screen, it gets rid of the menu giving you more drawing space. Although I don’t personally use this because it’s nice to have the menu up for convenience, you could give it a try if space is something your struggling with.
Yh my apple pencils slips out time to time 🥲but as for the screen protector, Paper like screen protector is the best it really feels like your drawing on paper ! Hope this helps love your work Sam!
UPDATE: matte screen protector came in, 10/10 chefs kiss
Matte protector has passed the sam vibe check
pog
Paperlike kind of makes the process of drawing much better
Which one did you get? My paperlike one got scratches all over after like a week :/
You can also turn off the double tap to switch to eraser. I always accidentally press this, so I always turn it off!

Sam, I loved the video but can we also talk about how your voice is one of the most soothing ones ever and you should try being an ASMR artist as well? 😭❤
Been working with Procreate on my 2018 iPad 6th Gen since May 2018. Glad I started with Procreate, since I had no prior experience. I also upgraded to the new M1 12.9 iPad Pro and I'm loving it! Great video I can only agree on your points!
I also have an ipad and im just starting to learn how to use Procreate. I dont have professional experience with these kinds of software, so I watch tutorials on youtube about it. Its pretty easy to use after that and I enjoy drawing. The reference feature is my favorite because its very helpful because i sketch through observation 😅
If you want to make straight lines in Procreate draw the line, circle, square or triangle(as far as I know that’s it) and hold. It should make a straight line and while holding you can move it to different angles if you want. Another way to do it is using Drawing Assist. If you go to Actions(wrench) then to Canvas you’ll find it. Flip the switch and press Edit drawing guide under it. There you can make grids and do symmetry stuff. Hope this helps someone! 😊
i cant tell how long i have been waiting for this Video.. Thanks Sam!
I recommend buying a grip if the pencil still feels small/slippery :)
2:07 you can buy protective covers for apple pencils that have a better grip on them! it really helps me
I have used Photoshop since 2001 with Photoshop 6.5 and through my Multimedia diploma, and just use in general. I use my Kids 10.2 iPad 7th gen with Procreate, and it it really excellent. I still need to wrap my head around gestures. Not having name tabs for functions. Its an excellent App.
gotta say i love this man’s vibe
For people who use tempered glass and are wanting more stable lines, you may try adjusting the stabilization amount of your brush in the settings. It helps draw really straight, smooth lines…
The sliding might help with this pen tips, literally from company call Pen Tips! Its this silicone tip designed for ipad!
btw you can make the interafce disapear completly if you tap with 4 fingers
and you can also connect your wacom pencil to procreate if you wanna use it instead of the apple one- i think it was prefs> connect third-party stylus
sam, get ready to do the two finger tap when you mess up on paper and then realizing what you did when it doesn’t work. i do that all the time and the disappointment on my face is just something else
The Paperlike screen protector is a good option as well :) As the name implies, it makes the surface feel more like paper. So your screen gets protected AND the normal screen isn‘t slippery like it is without a screen protector (or just any other screen protector)
Before Procreate I used to work on clip studio paint for desktop. I watched a couple of tutorials before trying the app, and I was shocked at how easy everything is. All the features I need are 3 clicks away tops, and it's super easy to set up and change.
I think the same. I star drawing in Photoshop, but when I buy and IPad Pro and star working in Procreate is difficult comeback to Photoshop. Thanks a lot for your words and review
It's great for getting away from your desk, sketching on the couch, coffee shop, park etc 👍
Procreate is so freaking awesome. I’m in absolute love. And I love my iPad Pro 2020 🥴
ah sam nice that you like procreate so much and i definitely agree !! you can actually turn off the double tap feature or like change it if you want to! also you can choose in the procreate settings to show the brush cursor to get rid of the "not sharpened pen" feeling :) hope this helps!
Thank you for this video!
I'm looking forward to buying an Ipad in the future and you gave me all the information I needed. I guess moving from real-life sketching to digital art will be kinda awkward but hopefully, I'll get used to this.
You can also use two fingers to tap/double tap , it undo’s mistakes you possibly made, and is a really useful gesture :). Also three fingers to redo things you accidentally undo.
Those are my tips for you!
The problem with some matte screen protectors is that they can dull out the screen quality and color which could be a downside. I'd recommend a plastic screen protector even though it's not anti glare or has that paper feel texture but it really depends on what you prefer more.
Don’t use any glass or full protector, i did also at start, but the mat protector will lower the resolution and change a bit colors. I removed all of that and got used to default iPad very quick. I use it professionally as a concept artist every day, never got back to my 27 cintiq since.
There are some places where you can buy a rubberized sheath to go over the Apple Pencil, and there’s tip covers also that you can look for online. I don’t have any of these items, bit I do know other procreate artist that do. Oh, check out some YT videos for iPad Pro accessories is where these items are shown.
I just love Procreate and I have the cheapest model of iPad 2021 and the 1 gen Apple pencil. It's so easy and userfriendly. I mostly use it now and rarely Photoshop anymore. I got paperlike on my screen and I love it.
They actually sell rubber grips (sort of like pencil grips) that you can put on your Apple Pencil to make it easier to hold!
Honestly I have not seen a need to purchase any third party brushes! The default ones are awesome!
he has a really soft tone , very soothing
Amazon sells a ton of rubber Apple Pencil cases that could help with the slippery feel. I got one and it was a lifesaver!
Thanks alot dear , i was thinking alot of having i pad or tablet instead of my computer for digital art beacuse using computer alot effected on my arm soooo much and my neck so i neeeded to stop all kind of art for 4 months even if skitshes so this vedio encourage me to go on buying an i pad and just keep the computer for graphic designes so less stress on my arm , i appreciate your help for giving me more informations i was scared if i regret using it or not
I find the pure sketching experience with the notes app the best among any device existing , it replicates real drawing with a 2b or HB pencil so well, Procreate is great though and this is what I use daily
Cool procreate tip while multitasking mode: drag a photo into the colour palette menu and it’ll decipher the colour palette of that photo 👌🏻
For a wiggly line you can just hold your pencil down once you've drawn the line you can also do that for other shapes.
Make sure you turn off iPad’s True Tone. That feature uses iPads sensors to tint the screen with orange and blues (as well as brightness/darkness), but Procreate (and any other creative app) registers the actual color being used.
This is similar to doing a color painting with tinted glasses. As a result, if you try to print your finished painting or send it over to a different device like your desktop (which does not use True Tone in most cases), your art will either seem more orange/blue or darker/lighter than what you see on your iPad.
If you tap four fingers on the screen, it gets rid of the menu giving you more drawing space. Although I don’t personally use this because it’s nice to have the menu up for convenience, you could give it a try if space is something your struggling with.
You can add stream line by clicking in the brush, and you can change se sensibility of the pencil in prefs edit pressure curves
Yh my apple pencils slips out time to time 🥲but as for the screen protector, Paper like screen protector is the best it really feels like your drawing on paper ! Hope this helps love your work Sam!
