[alukaforyou]

eye... need to stop sleeping at 3am when i have work the next day le sigh.... anyways v funny how i need at least 5 ref pics at all times to feel safe LOL first real attempt drawing on procreate i mean i made some sketches and fcked around w it before but idk how i feel about the textured lines, i do like it on one hand but idk if it'll look weird with smoother coloring idk i will def export this into sai to color cuz im just sooooo used to sai my beloved💖 i render / paint SOO specifically with sai idk wat to do in like any other program the brushes just act different so my workflow is like??? also an artist i love works on clip and one part of me is wondering if i can color better if i also work on clip but i dunno 😐 clip looks complex i did try it a few yrs ago and got intimidated by the unfamiliarity and gave up way too fast 😓 idt i will ever render on procreate but lining is somehow a bit easier on the screen i think? or is that just the textured brush lol i think its harder lining with a non textured brush in general.

ALSO!!!! I SEE YALL IN THE TAGS WISHFULLY WRITING ABT HOW YALL """""WANT TO""""" ALSO DRAW URSELVES WITH UR BLORBOS and...... WHAT THE FCK IS STOPPING U!!!!!!!! everyone who wrote "i should draw myself w x" GO DO IT!!!! 😾 dont make me say it twice

its really fun i promise :3

i think your art is very beautiful //. !!!!!!!!!!!!!uhm what app slash program do you use or recommend ..

EV E Y BOD Y SAY. THAAAAAAAAANK UOU <33333 HELL O U SWEE TBEAUTIFUL THANG. IIIIIIII!!!!!!O K OK.

iam severely biased because i use csp and i Fucking Love CSP but. i have used lots of different art programs & can just share my experiences. my choice from top being first to bottom being absolute last

CSP ; i mean, like, legally speaking -- it costs money. but. like. you know. arr mateys and all that. smirk. VERY good program, super extensive & i believe its industry standard? one downside for most people ive seen is that it is. like. incredibly complicated & visually overwhelming. like this is my personal setup

BUT ALSO GOING INTO THIS MORE.,.. the interface is like. 100% customizable. you could completely get rid of every single thing on here except for the brush and colorpicker if you wanted. like it is completely customizable just do whatever the fuck u want forever ALSO ANIMATION FRIENDLY BLESS i do all my animations here!!! . i really like it because there is an entire asset store with people making dedicated brushes and models and textures etc etc & also its just. it has a nice feel to it :)) its hard for me to describe well but i love csp. my babygirl

MEDIBANG PAINT: i have not used this in . quite some fucking time so forgive me if some of this is outdated. its not like. NEARLY as customizable as something like csp or photoshop (ewww) but it works like. pretty fucking well honestly. the brushes all have a very nice feel to them and it's a very far far reach from csp in terms of like. Set up BUT its free and has a lot of pre-made brushes to pick from :) ... unfortunately theres no way to import stuff unlike csp and ps so ur stuck with things made within the app or downloaded from the cloud i think otherwise tho i think it has a very nice interface :)) NOT animation friendly tho. sigh

FIREALPACA: FREE... also you can animate in it but its fucking insane. better selection of brushes than medibang but im not a big fan of how it feels + it was super laggy for me when i used it....

KRITA: same as above p much but a smaller brush selection ... IBISPAINT: free! big fan of the brushes (+ theres a LOT of them) & even if the interface is a little confusing for me its pretty simple & would be good for sum people i think :) PROCREATE: $5 last time i checked? fuck procreate honestly. one of my least favorite programs & i used it for 2 years so i would know. it gets a LOT of popularity because its aesthetically pleasing and. YES the feel of the brushes is nice i will not lie but the shit hiding behind such a simple interface is the fact that there is literally. so few options/so little customization. very laggy, brushes are EXCLUSIVE to procreate & even if there's a wide selection if you want to move to a different program its gonna b a nightmare having to use totally different brushes. animation feature is fucking terrible, there's a seperate app made by the same people i think? and i havent tried that one but ive heard its good :)) regardless. procreate isnt BAD but it has an incredibly simple interface, ipad/iphone exclusive, only really works well with an apple pencil (which is already pretty fucking expensive on top of an ipad if you dont already have one LOL !?!?!?!?!?!?)

PHOTOSHOP: fuck adobe! expensive as hell + ia m generally just not a big fan of it or its interface... its not bad per se but i wouldnt reccomend it to anyone who hasnt Already Used It

THERES . PROBABLY MORE IM FORGETTING like i could say sony sketch & gimp and shit but i dont have enough experience with them 2 really say. regardless i hope IHOP;E ANY OF THIS MADE; SENS;E[ ;34TEORTUDOIG

what kind of app do you use?? sorry if it's been asked before! i'm new so.. also, if you don't mind recommending a drawing tablet? thank you !! also i love your art sm, it makes my heart burst 😭💙

I still use SAI, as for other programs I haven't used them but I heard Krita and Ibis Paint can be good as free(?) options, if u want something more modern/with a lot of options there's CSP, there's something about it that just doesn't click for me but a lot of ppl use it and if ur planning on getting an ipad for any reason there's always procreate

as for tablets any small/medium tablet you can get for 100€ or less can be good for starting out, personally I recommend wacoms, they perform well on their cheaper models as well, for other brands you have to go on their more expensive models to get the same performance (just in my experience)

I currently use the Huion Kamvas pro 16 and I've been using it for years so I got no other recs but I wouldn't get something too expensive as first tablet, hope that helps!

and thank you! 💛

Hello! I loved your work right off the bat and I really would like to ask about your art, if you don't mind.

How did you start? Like the apps you used and what tips can you give to help beginners.. Your stroke is wonderful and I love when you paint but I have trouble finishing my arts in terms of painting, whenever I try it looks bad and I end up giving up

(Ignore any wrong word in the text, I'm using a translator and a little of my English teaching, since I'm originally from Brazil)

Hello! And no bother at all dw that’s what asks are for!

Me and feral both began with traditional art when we were young and didn’t start digital until our mid teens but the best program and tools we’ve used in our opinion was definitely an iPad with the procreate app

But I would also recommend clip studio paint that is usable on any computer with even a simple drawing pad (like a Wacom but I’m sure there’s others around that are cheaper too)

As for tips you can always watch coloring processes on YouTube or from an artist that is streaming to see what tools and techniques they use to get their results and to continue practicing and experimenting even if u don’t like the results

Even now me and feral still pick up techniques and ideas from each other and other artists, just keep trying! It takes time to build a skill and just like anything else practice and time helps you improve!

As for motivation there’s not much I can help there, everyone gets motivated differently to complete things it’s just about finding what works for you, for us it’s able to see the finally product, maybe we don’t always like to but it’s satisfying to say we at least finished it and maybe later on after a few other projects we can come back and remake it again with a fresh mind but at least the base is there for what the general idea was

I hope this helped! Good luck on your artist journey ✨

What program do you use and brushes? How long does your art process take? :D You're my artist inspo! I wanna be like you as i get older!! - Anon MittyKitty

that’s so sweet hxjscjskxn thank you so much, it’s always so nice to hear these kind of words😭😭

i use procreate and as for the brushes, i’ve already answered a similiar question here;3

to answer your next question, it really depends how long my creating process takes, i’d guess it usually is something between 2-4 hours to finish a piece, a simpler one might take something around an hour or even less.

good luck with your art!!! i’m 100% sure you’re already pretty good at it<3

[emilylovescookies]

Hii i love ur art so much!! If you dont mind me asking, what app/program do u use to draw?

hi hi!!! I use a mix of procreate and clip studio paint (ex)!!! just depends on what tablet I want to use for the day lol 💗

to get the texture on my drawings I use paint tool sai as well so I’m using 3 programs at once tbh LOL!!!! (I should rlly record an updated art process video… it would be interesting at the very least haha).

[pygmypouter]

can i ask what your brushes are? your usage of textures is so gorgeous

hi thank you so much! going to answer this mostly abt procreate since i answered abt some of my photoshop brushes a while back and i still basically only use kyle websters gouache blaire brush for everything.

for adding texture over finished stuff i tend to use this set from true grit texture supply. it’s from their free sampler pack. i think u have to subscribe to their newsletter for it but i think it’s worth + it has same set for both procreate + photoshop (and a bunch of other programs too i think) which i love as someone who is indecisive abt programs. when i’m in photoshop i also love to use their butcher paper texture as an overlay for almost everything.

i also rlly like these ones….the 6b ones are all procreate default or edited versions of it. and other ones are i think from tip top brush sets. not sure which ones anymore they are all chilling together in my folder of fav brushes (sorry). if anyone wants u can dm me and i can send u to the zip file where i saved all of mine..… the chisels are from this brush set. these are not particularly textured but i love them for line art+sketching & there’s a few more textured brushes in there as well.

also in photoshop i really like to use a soft round brush on a mid to low opacity & with the dissolve brush mode on to add texture that war.

okay that’s all hope that was helpful at all 😋 love ur art btw <3

[heleizition]

Hiii ! I hope ur doing well! I’m just getting back into digital art and LOVE the way u draw sm, I’m super inspired by it! I was wondering what program and brushes u mainly use if that’s ok :) Have a lovely day/night/morning/evening 🤍

hi !! congrats on getting back into it !! and thank you so much <33

I use procreate on an ipad pro (10.5 2017). i have a loooot of brushes ive been downloading here and there (been usince hte ipade for 5 years) but the one pack i used to sketch the most rn is this one !!

[stealingpotatoes]

what brush/program do you use, especially for lineart? i love the way it looks <3

aw thank u!! i mostly use Procreate (ipad only) for comics and illustrations but i use photoshop for bigger semirealism or concept art stuff (or if i'm just using my computer instead lol)!!!! here are the grand total of 5 brushes I use:

(it's a custom brush -- sergey kolesov's soft eliptical 45 + aufgenomer pencil 1 3 -- and the procreate default 6B pencil + thyaciline + bonobo!!)

my lineart brush is a custom version of sergey kolesov's soft eliptical brush bc while on photoshop you can edit its hardness, procreate doesnt let you so I had to remake a hard version of the brush myself!!

[dragon-subway]

Hi! Love ur art <3 was wondering what brushes u use? thank you!

yea man sure! All packs listed are for free and are either made specifically for Procreate or work in it

the vast majority come from ren’s huge pack.

It’s been the pack I’ve been using since pretty much the beginning of picking up Procreate and my more notable brushes come from it. There’s a fair bit of editing that’s been done to make them feel nicer for my hand and Oguo but darker is just a duplicate of oguo that I changed the brush shape by using the original to make a more solid shape. It can be pretty compatible with a bunch of different styles too with its range like I don’t even use half of these brushes especially in the sketching and lining sections so there will probably be something you like

Amontis 1st pack has a bunch of wonderful textures, my favourite being the noises round pen. the free natural gouache pack is small with only three brushes but they’re good ones

if you have CSP I cannot recommend Qamala’s graphic marker enough it was my main brush back when I used the program and I’ve been trying to recreate it in Procreate to… limited success. The “faithful remake” in the name is because it’s closer than my initial attempt and probably the closest I’ll be getting.

honestly after that it’s random brushes I got from browsing gumroad that I’ve only really used once or twice

[mohish-ko]

i really adore your art. i’ve been following you for a while, and ugh your art is just gorgeous. i get so excited when you post. your winter soldier/bucky pieces mean so much to me, i just love your style and how you draw. thank you for sharing with us!

not sure if you’ve answered this before, but what program do you use? much love! 🫶🏻

I use Procreate, and Krita if I'm on PC, Thank you!! Such a cute and nice words oh- u make me blush

(づ￣ ³￣)づ🖤🖤

[capyclara]

op congrats on the beautiful art style!! thanks for sharing your art with us. can i ask what kind of art program you use? the way you paint on it is sooooo lovely!!

GASP my first ask what an honor!!! thank you so much i appreciate it ^^

i use procreate with oil simulation brushes! i combined two small free packs but i cannot for the LIFE of me find the other one, luckily most free oil packs do the trick, as long as they have the color mixing wet setting on. link to the free pack: https://ittaimanero.gumroad.com/l/FREEThickPaint

i pretty much only use 3 on rotation (one for blocking one for general one for fine detail), and the flat brush from the free bundle is great for blocking out textured backgrounds:

this is WAY more info than you asked for but i love these brushes lmao. theres a bit of a learning curve but it's so so worth it

i hope this helps!!! thank u again anon <3

[giddlygoat]

if u dont mind me asking, what do u use to draw? (program/device) cuz your art is super clean and i also love your handwriting !!

i use procreate on an ipad pro! it’s my favorite art program by FAR. simple UI that still provides rich tools. it allows me to do everything i could ever want currently. also, thank you SO much!!!! i take pride in my handwriting. i think it looks like that because i grew up loving comic books with hand lettering lawl
