In today's video, I will be showing you guys how to use Procreate for beginners. I will be going through a couple of the dope brushes and showing you what they do and a couple of settings and features to show you exactly how to use it. So one thing I advise you to invest in, man, you need to get you one of these apple pencils if you're using the iPad Pro so you can get the pressure option. You know what I'm saying? You get more control over your brush. Okay, the best app for art, obviously, is Procreate, man, and I'm just going to be honest with you. You know what I'm saying? The best app to use when you're looking for an art app, Procreate, bro. And this is not a sponsored video. This is just the truth. So let's go right into Procreate. What you want to do when you want to start fresh, you just hit the plus sign right here. Bam. And then you know what I'm saying? You create your size. The size I like to draw is eight by eight inches. You know what I'm saying? I think that's perfect for Instagram and wherever you're trying to post it at on social media. So look, you want to come over here, hit this circle to change the color. You know what I'm saying? That's where you can pick and select any color you want. Go to your brushes. When you're doing line work, the best brush for the line work is your ink brush. Inking brush. So you go to inking and then you go to technical pen. That's the best brush to use. If you double click it and you move the streamline all the way up right here, that's going to help you get more control over your lines to make sharper lines. You know what I'm saying? To help correct your lines so you can make it even smoother. So let's say if we was drawing a face. This is how you make your lines bigger. And this is how you drop the opacity on the line. See what I'm saying? You move this up. So just showing you. If you want to delete, you messed up. All you got to do is hit this and y'all can see it come out of my head in a way. Okay. Anytime you want to delete, all you got to do is hit this back arrow. Just say if I drew a picture and I messed up on a whole bunch of lines. All I got to do is keep pressing this back arrow. It's just going to take me back and it's going to delete all my mistakes. Okay. Let's draw the face real quick. So see if I was drawing a picture of somebody. And if you want to zoom in so you can get finer detail, all you got to do is grab your two fingers and just spread it like this. Then if you want to make it smaller, you just bring it back just like this. That's how you change the size. Okay. That's why it's good to buy you an Apple pencil because you see how I get to make my lines like different sizes as I'm drawing with the pressure. Now you know what? I'm going to show y'all something with that. Let's go ahead and draw this face. Don't judge me. I'm just doing this to show you guys. Okay. Say if I wanted to draw some dope looking hair. What I would do is I would come right here, select this tool right here, make sure you got to select it and you want to create you a nice little path. You know what I'm saying? I'm just going to create a little path and close it off like that. You see this little selection I just made. Now I'm going to come over here to my brush tool and we're going to find us a brush to create the hair. A little fade. And you notice how it's not letting me go outside the lines. It's not letting me go outside this little shape we just made. I'm just creating a little fade right here. Look like it's fading. Go back to brush tool and give me a little box. Give me a little box to go to erase the tool, trim all this unwanted hair on the side. Now when you finish you want to click that to take the selection off and I look we got a nice little fade. That nice little fade going. You feel me? Now I'm going to make his eyebrows. So I'm going to go back to this tool right here. I'm going to make sure we got selected so we can create a path. Let's create a nice little path for it right there. Go back to my brush tool. This little hair right here. Hairbrush. Telling y'all man this program is next level man. All right we're going to click off of it. We're going to click back on it so we can create the other side. We're going to draw a path for it. Let's do a path. I'm going to come up here to our brush tool. We're going to do the same thing. We're just going to make it fade. See what I'm saying? Now I want to make his eyes black. So I'm just going to drag and drop for my color right there. Drag and drop. Let's go back to our brush. Our technical pen. Let's create the detail inside the ears real quick. And we're going to give him a generous heart and beard. So let me go back to this. Go back to that right there. And let's create us a nice little selection. Back to my brush. Go to my noise brush. I'm going to create him a nice little fade. We got to make it be light. I'm starting my light. I'm just going to get darker down here. Let's fade up. See how we got it faded? Now that we did that, we can take our selection off. Go back to our hair, our short hair brush. Let's go ahead and add a nice little texture down here. And what I like to do, so I won't mess up this little fade we just created, we can go ahead and go back to this tool right here. Make sure we got it highlighted. Just still on the edges, make a mistake. Let's draw a big old opening. Close it off. Let's go back to our hair brush. Step back so I'm messed up. See what I'm saying? You just got to learn how to use the tools to your advantage. Learn how to use it to your advantage. Okay. Got a little hair going. I'm going to do the same thing up here. So let's create a close up. I use this so I can stay in certain areas. You know what I'm saying? Without messing up anything else. So you just, that's all I use this tool for. So I can stay in a certain area that I don't want to go outside of. So after I make my selection, I just click the brush I want. I want that hair brush again. And these are brushes that come with the program. So all you need is the program like get this program and get you an apple pencil and you in the game on the side. And there we go. Guy with the afro. I mean with the box fade. So now what we're about to do, we're about to color this thing. So what you want to do is you want to come over here to your layers. You want to drag this layer to your left. And when you drag to the left, it'll make a copy of it. See what I did? Let me go back. When you drag it to the left, it'll give you options. And then you just hit duplicate. So I'm going to come to my bottom layer I just created. Let's find this nice little skin tone. Okay. Let me step back. We forgot to close our main layer off. So let's go back to it. But our ink tool, you see, got an opening right here. So we got to clean it up. And it's an opening on this side. Okay, now we should be good. Let's go back. Let's duplicate the line work. Make sure our bottom one is selected. Find us a nice base color to start with. That'll do. Drag that color over and drop it inside. Our character we just created. Also, we're going to create us another layer of the line work for the eyes and the lips. So let's go ahead and color these eyes. Just drag and drop that color inside the eyes. And we're going to create a color for the lips. Bam. Now, this is my little method I use, man. Go to our skin color layer. What you want to do is double click it. And then once you get this options right here, all you got to do is select, select, click, select. And what it's going to do is not going to let you color outside of that color. That's on that layer. So watch this. Now we're going to find us a nice shadow color. Let me go to my tool I want to use. Let's use the airbrush tool. I like to use the soft brush. Okay, I'm going to drop the brush opacity down some so we can get a better fade on it. And we're going to make our brush a little smaller as you can see. If you want to select and sample colors, all you got to do is hold your finger down on your picture and then select the area you want to sample. Then let go and they just sample it. Now I'm going to move my opacity all the way back up after I done sample the color I created. See, it's not letting me go outside the lines. It's keeping me inside my boundaries. So this tool coming, the selection tool coming handy. That's a nice little shadow. Let's go ahead and go to another brush tool I like to use when I'm shading. I like to go to my noise brush just to help it fade a little more. And just say if I want to blend this shadow color or any color more, you know what I'm saying? All I got to do is come up here and then you go to hue saturation and brightness. Then you just play with your settings like that. Like that tone right there. Create a new layer, make our shadows a little darker. I always see how I just went outside the lines is because I didn't have our color layer selected. Now I just selected our color layer. Let's go back to our brush and it's going to keep us inside our border. Let's make our brush a little bigger. Go to fade more or so. And now if you make some highlights on its face, a couple of highlights. Nice little highlight going on. Now we can go up to our lips and our layer, double click it, hit select. So it won't let us color outside of that layer. It's just the same routine I used. Okay, let's go to our, go to a nice little brush tool. See what I'm saying? This app is perfect, man, for beginners and serious artists. What I'm going to do, I'm going to create a layer at the very top. And just say if you want to merge all your layers together to say some space, all you got to do is grab your fingers and pull them together. Let's go to the layer at the very top. And we're going to create some nice hair highlights. So go to my finer hair brush. Just create a couple of little highlights, man. Also some details inside the eyes. They got so many brushes on this that comes with the program. You just got to get it and play with it too big. There you have it. Just say I'm finished. I'm going to merge all my layers. And then I want to change the size. All I got to do is hit this arrow tool right here. Then I can just resize it. You know what I'm saying? You can resize that thing. Draw the opacity down on your picture if you would like. You want to add a color background. All you got to do is select background, and change the color.
