Finally decided to get over my very stupid and completely unhelpful fear of starting new things (and the unavoidable imperfection in the early days of learning something new) and started messing around more in Procreate. It’s only been 2 decades since the initial “I should really learn how to draw in Photoshop” thought that has plagued me ever since… 20 years isn’t an absurd amount of time to put something off, is it? Yes, yes, I am facepalming so hard right now.
Long story short, I think I’m gonna like it here. Def a bit rusty when it comes to drawing without a grid — something I use to help layout my colored pencil commissions — but it feels good to exercise the muscle again.
There’s even a built in time-lapse feature! I feel so spoiled.
Any helpful tips for someone just starting out in Procreate? Scout had a lot to critique in terms of my technique, but not so much in the way of tips and tricks. I’ve already had to google so many basic things.
