    For as great as procreate is it is so disappointing how bad their select and filling tools are. When I first got it it took me days to figure out the color fill (was too stubborn to look it up for a bit lol) and I wanted to give up and go back to ibispaint. Thanks for the help :)

    2. make line art reference
    3. select color and create mask
    4. Drag in black

    Nice work around. 20 plus years ago in my marketing firm we did most of our work in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I just started using procreate. I’m still looking for the clipping path. Clipping path work very well and gave you many options. Do they no longer write that into software?

    I was using the feather option for this, and while it works it does make it blurred if you would want to turn off the line art layer for whatever reason. Will try next time if his works better for me.

    Thank you so muchh for the tutorial, it has been suck for me getting used to procreate (im newbie for procreate) when im fully used to clip studio paint with bunch of useful features.. may I asked if it is possible to pick color from what’s on the current layer,, for example, I have skin color on layer 1 and its shading color as multiply mode layer on layer 2,, in csp, I have options as I can pick the shading color on the layer 2 only or the blended (displayed) color from those 2 layers, while in procreate I can only pick displayed color… I wish I have that first option on procreate as well buhuhuh thank u again!

  • @safi456
    @safi456 Месяц назад

    I'm not sure this is what I'm looking for as I'm new to procreate. I just started using it a few days ago. I made a drawing and used it as a reference, with the intention of painting on a separate layer, then deleting the outlines (reference layer). Of course, I ended up painting on the same layer as the drawing. I mean, of course. now if this was photoshop, I'd just copy the layer, select the black drawing lines with a wand on one layer, and delete everything in the same colour. Please can you suggest how I could do this in procreate?

    Procreate has been nothing but a chain of frustrations since day one, lack of tools, lack of basic anything, lack of advanced selection or pen smoothing on selection and the worst of all, lack of a blur tool, its just a overadvertised headache.
    For 20€ its great but with a huge list of disfuncionality it just makes me question those 20€.
