Yes, poorfag.

everyone that can afford apple stuff. its actually great

>>6540310
>>6540326
I can afford apple stuff, but why would I spend money on lower quality, overpriced products?

Stop lying to yourselves and buy better products, anons.

>>6540361
Well,how about you pyw made with the superior products?

>>6540361
there's nothing better than apple when it comes to tablet and drawing

>>6540383
There unironically isn't. I wish android tablet weren't such shit

Is there a way to draw straight lines without having to hold? I want to draw as if I’m using a ruler feel like rulers will ruin my Apple Pencil or screen.

>>6541238
get adobe fresco, it's better than procreate, it's got rulers built into the app. not just straight ones but polygonal ones and elliptical ones.

>>6541238
I don't know if tight perspective work is a strength for procreate if that's what you're after.

Hey guys speaking about Procreate and iPads in general, does anyone know any promiment japanese illustrators/mangaka that work primarily ln iPads/iPadPros?
I can only remember @navigavi/Jun whos a fucking monster with Procreate and has eveb released a conplete artbook with his tablet work
Theres also this other guy who makes samurai/edo type of illustrations with that kind of old school japanese style but i forgot his name and hes more of a painter in a way i guess
I ask this bc im in the market for a drawing tablet and i dunno of my linework focused style is a good fit for it...majority of artists online are heavy into painting
(Also does using Fresco solve ant of these issues?)
Ty for the help!

>>6544495
If you use tiktok, literally all japanese artists use procreate. You won't find the mega big artists you're imagining that draw the common shonen, but an overflow of artists who are in the 30-200k follower range and are japanese purely use procreate for their works. You can find them pretty easy if you watch any live views they do

>>6544495
>navigavi
I always wonder how he paints like that on procreate, coloring is the most painful part of that program for me since I'm used to clip's comfy autofill brushes that don't leave disgusting white pixels.

>>6545177
Oh shit thats something new for me, Im kind of a boomer so I always resisted against TikTok but Im willing to try it if its for my art, ty for the headups, do you have any acc who I can start with?
>>6545253
I dont think its that rare, most Procreate users are painters after all, you rarely see linework or animation type of art coming from the install base as youd expect

>>6544495
They do but it's hard to find Japanese people who stream using it, unlike westerners. For whatever reason, they like taking a screenshot of a drawing in procreate rather than just exporting the image like a normal person.

The thing that keeps me coming back to Procreate over CSP or any other drawing program is that the default brushes are just way better than any other program offers. Is there really any custom brushes you guys would use over them?

>>6545924

I don't like the defaults. I just use the jing brush sketch.

I think it’s retarded that procreate doesn’t have a build in line brush, and u have to hold- also, every single time I try to draw a quadrilateral and I hold it, it fucking turns into a polyline or circle. I still use procreate for the convenience but it makes me wanna scream everytime that happens.

oh shit i remember this from last year (ive been gone for at least 6 months, i enrolled into design school), but i thought ppl would phase it out bc of all the faggot snitches on this board, ty ty

>>6545293
You unironically have to get yourself over to the "jp" side of tiktok, its not very hard if you start liking tiktoks made by japanese people, especially if they're drawing related, itll fall into place. Try and find your favourite artists if they're not too huge as its not uncommon they would stream there

>>6544495

Recently came across Akihito Yoshitomi on youtube. He doesn't use procreate tho, he uses clip studio paint pro.

how the fuck do I stop this from happening? I swear every brush has some sort of correction going on, I don't want it to correct

>>6562279
I also want to know this, just got jewed out of CSP but procreate is infuriating

this. As much as I hate Apple, I bought a 6thgen ipad and the Apple pencil 1.
I wanted something portable, since I don't own a laptop.It was the most affordable option but I never expected it to be this good.
>refurbished 6th gen ipad: 230€
>used apple pencil: 65€
>procreate: 16€
I have a gaomon pen display and I've had wacom tablets. Believe me, the Apple pencil moggs them all.

>>6561350
p-p....please..... *cough* need......................... rsco.................................... office..................... supplies............................ *wheeze*

>>6565543
>Believe me, the Apple pencil moggs them all.
truth.

if you want portability the ipad pro 12.9 and the pencil is the best there is. The screen resolution and the quality of the color is simply amazing.


my only issue with it is the glass is very smooth and takes some getting used to when drawing on it as it doesn't feel like paper. But once you do its a blissful experience.

>>6569848
Paperlike, while being pretty expensive in it's own right, helps a lot with making the screen better for drawing on. Also serves as a screen protector.

>>6565543
>>6569848
How bad is drawing on a non-laminated display? I work on PC with a screenless wacom, but I could get a 10th gen iPad at half price now, I like the Apple Pencil design, so the air gap is the only thing keeping me really.

>inb4 just try it out at a store
Only Apple Pencil 2s are on display where I live, unfortunately.

>>6570891
Apparently some people even like it, but I'm not one of them. I'd just recommend slapping some screen protector on it for that reason alone.

Does anyone have the latest updated True Grit Texture Supply packs?

These Procreate brush threads really came in clutch during 2020. I had to take down the big collection I had on MEGA due to a couple of DMCA strikes. The link eventually got posted all over VK and I'm guessing that's when brush makers started noticing.

>>6578009
Agreed, it really helped me a great deal as I just started getting into digital art around that time too, so I could really profit from all these brushpacks made available without spending a fortune. Thank you for your work, anon.

i have a bunch of stuff laying around, all maxpacks except for comic, some true grit stuff, retro supply, and other miscellaneous suff, does anyone know a good way of sharing these?

There's some nice (and free) Procreate brushes on Booth if you look for it. Couple ones I could recommend are Deep Blizzard's Thick Paint brushes: https://deepblizzard.booth.pm/items/3790211
And this guy's: https://z6w6y.booth.pm/
>>6578945
Wish we had a rentry like the CSP brush thread has but a temporary MEGA folder would suffice for now maybe? Nice collection.

Anyone have a brush that could make marks like these? Rough inker with a squarish tip profile, and visible distinct lines from bristles on the side, maybe even pressure sensitive for the amount of bristles visible

>>6579059
based kemonochad with the killer brushes

>>6544495
If you’re into furshit Aru Urara uses Procreate and livestreams on YouTube/Twitch occasionally

Best way to make pixel art on the ipad?

>>6578945
Could you put them in a megadrive folder, use base code 64 to encrypt it and paste it here for us to use? I'd really love the lithotone from true grit ;_;

>>6579965
i’ve seen a few pixel art brushes before

>>6540361
>lower quality
Sure you can say apple shit is overpriced but if you are seriously suggesting that any of the other options are "better quality" you're out of your mind. Not that apple's stuff is high quality, but that everyone else's stuff is just as crummy.

can you change flow in this garbage pp without opening the brush panel, opening the brush manager, navigating to the right subpanel, changing the flow and then saving the brush?
how do you even paint like this

>>6582878
Why not just make a duplicate brush with the flow you want

>>6582907
do you even paint

>>6582907
Same reason you don’t do it for opacity and size?

>>6582910
Which is? Because I do that for both

>>6583278
Not being retarded

>>6583305
So manually going into the brush settings every single time to swap levels is better because...?

>>6543870
Thanks anon but do you mind using a file hosting site that isnt anonfiles? the download speeds are abysmal

>>6583320
…that is the issue, non garbage software doesn’t make you open up the brush settings and didn’t even in the 90s
procreate is literally the only one that does because it’s designed by retards, people have been asking for this shit to be fixed on the forums for years

>>6583320
It’s not, you fucking retard, hence why flow is immediately available in the interface in every single art program but the meme one.
>CSP
>ASP
>Paintstorm
>Paint
>Infinite Painter
>Sketchbook
>Fresco
All have flow on the screen because it’s more important than fucking opacity.

>>6583344
>>6583377
So once again...until Procreate adds a flow slider why not just make a duplicate brush with the flow you want

>>6583383
see >>6583305
Why use a garbage app when better alternatives exist?

>>6583383
>until
LOL
If you were here back when we were originally buying and sharing brushes in these threads, you might remember me screeching about talking to them about this shit being bugged in 4.0.
It’s been 3 or 4 years now since I directly contacted them and got them to confirm they’ve replicated the bug after I made multiple threads on their support forums and other users confirmed the issue.
It’s not even an acknowledged bug yet, yet alone fixed.
The basic feature they touted (tilt) is fucked in the most basic application (downward stroke) in the default fucking brushes. They will never fix it because they’re a garbage company peddling a meme product.

>>6583534
Who asked what you want, retard?

>>6583551
you did? >>6583388
either way man you have some valid points but like...if you hate procreate so much why are you here?

>>6583562
That’s the answer to your question, you illiterate fucking retard.
>why
Because I was asking if it changed, you illiterate dumb nigger.

There's always ArtStudio Pro.

>https://www.luckyclan.com/apps/artstudiopro-ios

A lot of people who have tried it ended up liking it more than Procreate. I think Procreate maintains its popularity simply due to how noob-friendly it is. Also, Apple frequently features Procreate in their marketing materials, so it's the first art app most people think of when dealing with the iPad.

How's Clip Studio Paint for iPad? I've never tried it on any platform before.

>>6584513
>How's Clip Studio Paint for iPad
Pretty much the same as desktop, never tried Artstudio but I'd say CSP is similar to Photoshop, except more focused on illustration and comics. The interface isn't really optimized for smaller screens so it can get cluttered, but you can rearrange every window however you like. I like drawing on it more than Procreate, there's something about Procreate's brushes that makes it super frustrating to do anything more than sketch with.
You can try the demo out, can't save in it so it's just to get a feel of the program. Another negative is that it's a subscription outside of PC.

>>6584544
I'll have to give CSP a try at some point then. I'm not opposed to app subscriptions as long as it's not too expensive.

ArtStudio Pro is also pretty Photoshop-like. You can even import PS brushes and many of them will work right away or with minimal fixing. That's something Procreate never really got right. It seems people accustomed to other apps like PS or CSP complain a lot about Procreate's brush engine, which I guess I understand, since it definitely feels different compared to other apps I've tried (mostly PS and ASP).

Anyone know a good equivalent pen like Ciro for Procreate? I swear by this brush lately, I wanna be able to use it for my ipad as well (barring actually paying for CSP on ios)

>>6585462
>>6591357
Well, I found someone who recreated the SOL brush.
https://ko-fi.com/s/132a9333d5
And my own attempt at recreating CIRO failed spectacularly so i'll have to live with it for now.

>>6591391
I took a shot at making it and i just can’t get that subtle textures to work out! Thank you for the SOL brush anon. A true hero!

>>6591632
Maybe you can use this Sol brush as a base and try to get the stroke behavior right. I tried copying the shape of the brush for CIRO but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get the taper to work.

Anyone got the brushes from HAEYOON? Been searching for a while
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR4ZGcHr9CU

Or this artist Seal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjTAcAgGvrc

Any got any good pixel brushes? I apparently can't do anti-aliasing on Procreate. There's the Syrup brush that gets close but it's not perfect.
>>6584513
I do like how ArtStudio Pro has more features that Procreate lacks (like an eyedropper that does current layer only) and a better brush engine but as I've said before in this post there isn't really an option for anti-aliasing, and even importing photoshop pixel brushes heavily blurs them. I do recommend CSP if you're gonna screenshare to your PC because like >>6584544 said it's subscription only outside of PC, and even then they're switching to subscription only for PC too.
Also while we're on the topic of iPad drawing apps, how's Callipeg in terms of an animation software?

Anyone got the latest koteri brush?

picrel is the date he posted it on patreon

>>6595937

bumpin

>>6539638
Anyone have any brushes that look like this? Preferable without spreading like crazy when you tile the pen slightly that shit is so annoying

>>6594182
>anti-aliasing
you mean aliasing? all artstudio brushes are anti aliased by default
if you want aliased brushes with no blur just turn on hard edges in brush options lol

>>6598296
Thanks but where's the setting for hard edges? I can't find it anywhere.

>>6599355
tool options are at the bottom of the bar on the left, theres a hard edges option for the brush tool

>>6599361
THAT'S where it was? Thanks so much man.

Seems like ArtStudio Pro blows Procreate out of the water. I don't know why more people switch over to it instead of just dealing with Procreate's weird issues.

That said, ArtStudio Pro did change over from a one-time $12 purchase to a $10/year subscription model. They also offer a one-time payment of $40 for a lifetime license.

Really, it's Apple that causes all these apps to switch over to subscriptions. They don't like developers releasing updates as new apps. So developers either charge a one-time fee and hope to survive off that, or change over to a subscription to keep a continuous flow of income.

Makes me wonder how the Procreate devs keep rolling with the one-time $10 fee for the app.

>>6599494
At least the lifetime price for ArtStudio Pro of this is much cheaper than I assumed (and cheaper than CSP's 2.0 EX upgrade).

>>6599361
>>6599376
Funny enough, I'm pretty sure this is covered in the manual PDF the devs posted a while back.

https://www.luckyclan.com/artstudiopro/artstudio_pro_manual.pdf

I wish there was was many tutorial videos on YouTube covering ASP as there are for Procreate.

>>6599494
i'm not paying your subscription fee. stop shitting up the thread, thanks.

bubump

Anyone know a brush like picrel's lineart? Closest I have is the modified 6b default pencil.

>>6599494
Tried it. Paid the $10.
It's cool, tilt and taper works better than procreate which is why I wanted to try it. I like that it has more in depth tools and layer options that come in handy ever so often.

But I'm just too used to procreate's gestures, UI and don't want to abandon all those brushes I spent hours tuning. Noticed some small annoying stutters here and there too. Also, procreate is stupid popular thus has more resources and tutorials and whatnot.

I don't shit on you artstudio bros and I get why you like it, but it's not for me. I personally see this as a SAI vs Photoshop scenario. Photoshop has more features and all the fancy Adobe stuff, but some simply prefer SAI because they're more familiar with it. I don't draw well enough to feel like I'm getting overly cucked by worse engine and lack of features.

Which ipad is good to get for procrate that is cheapest? iPad Pro (9.7-inch) is available locally for $150.

>>6606665
presumably any ipad that has apple 2 pencil support. I'd suggest also getting a bigger tablet, but that's just my preference

>>6606665
The 9.7" iPad Pro is already like 7 years old. I wouldn't buy something that old if I were you. If you're fine with a 9.7" screen, get one of the more recent standard iPad models. If you can justify spending more, the iPad Air (4th gen and newer) is a really good option.

>>6606673
>>6606676
Is there just no normal iPad version anymore? It seems like the 9th gen (the latest?) does not support the pencil 2.

>>6606967
It supports pencil 1 which is fundamentally the same thing. The only difference is the way it charges.

Why does drawing on clip studio on the ipad feel so ass? the brush engine feels laggy and jittery like its running on 30 fps or some shit. is my ipad pro (3rd gen) outdated?

is this how it feels on a pc with a tablet as well or is it just the ipad version that's like this?

>>6608305
No clip studio was designed for desktops. It just runs like shit unless you have a shit ton of vram and ram.

I love CSP. Its my favourite software but it sucks balls on the ipad.

>>6605850
>just too used to procreate's gestures, UI
Didn't pay the sub but just downloaded to try and yeah, this. CSP is fine because I'm used to it but having to go into several menus to lasso and deselect is kinda ass and I can't figure out how to put the tools directly on the toolbar. I like how the brushes feel, it's more similar to CSP but if I wanted CSP I would just use that.
Layer adjustments are so fucking sexy though I can't believe Procreate STILL hasn't implemented this shit.
>>6608305
Dunno about ipad versions but my PC CSP only lags hard when I either use a fuckhuge brush or when I have a million layers.

>>6608334
thats good to hear cause im saving for a tablet, though sucks ass cause theres nothing good to make comics with on the ipad
