Sorry for that! Are you watching on mobile? When I made this first one, I wasn't really planning on uploading to YT so it was formatted with the instagram dimensions in mind. If you look under the 2 minute tuts playlist, there's an updated version of this that should work better for you! The brush for the shadows at the end is the brush pen and I upped the pressure sensitivity on it a bit. Hope this helps!

Sorry for that. Check out our 2 Minute Tut Playlist and there is a quick "Objects" tutorial under there!

Staying hopeful that as we see them move to full cross platform integration this will be solved in the process!

Hi, these are some "objects" I've made on my own. If you look at our 2 Minute Tuts you'll see a quick how-to on how I make them!

Yes to all the above actually! It varies as we are an outsourcing option for our clients so we use whatever they give us. Sometimes that’s on-site measurents we then draw out, sometimes it’s a drone or Polycam scan, or a traditional survey. Occasionally we have to just use google earth but the perspective skew makes it pretty unreliable.

Thanks for watching!

what version of the application are you using?

@brspart I’m am using the iOS version on a 2019 iPad Pro. I know some items, like custom objects, are not yet available on android/pc. But I’d keep an eye on their roadmap as this is one thing they are working hard on!

@@landshaperstudio It's not very fair. Why should we pay for an application that treats its users differently. Why is iOS always ahead of Android in this type of applications?

@mptprojetos6966 this is one of the biggest reasons I switched to iPad. It’s unfortunate because android tablets and pc setups have grown leaps and bounds! My only guess is either they focus on iOS first for a larger market or the platform is easier and cheaper to build on. Hopefully this changes in the future.

Thanks for the love! We welcomed a little one in September so finally getting back into creating some content. Thanks for sticking around!

Thank you! A little under 2 hours for this concept and a second option.

Admire the loose style and how clean you’re able to keep it.. keep up the amazing designs, looking forward to more content. Designing on a tablet has been a game changer for me, after switching from paper… especially being left handed as well. Concepts has come a long way, looking forward to their future updates as well as your future projects!!

Thanks for the love! And absolutely! Most left handed use that headlock style grip which always left one side of my hand smearing pencil or fresh marker everywhere! lol. Digital has been a game changer. Especially when I’m indecisive and want to make changes halfway through final labeling haha!

Not a bad way to spend the morning!

I definitely hope to!

Hey would love to help out, but not understanding what you meant by "Hidden Lines". Can you elaborate a bit more?

@@landshaperstudio - the dashed lines you have around your work. They look like a mix between hidden and center Line marks used in drafting

@@gB-gm7vy ah. Sorry. Should have picked up the CAD reference. So unlike Morpholio, Concpets App doesn't have these as linetypes nor is there an efficient way really to make it a brush like you can in procreate. So for now, I draw the line and then double back with the eraser tool. I believe that different line types may be on their roadmap though.

Hi! Pretty much all of the linework is produced with the “Pen” brush. I really like the hit-go-hit style the brush gives. Also the faster you go, the thinner the stroke will appear within certain parameters so you can get a wide range of use without having to constantly switch brushes.

Hi Nymode! For me it’s less about what you’re drawing and more about your style and working deadlines. The main difference between these two apps is Morpholio is a pixel painter and Concepts is vector based. Since we work for other designers we are constantly up for critiques and tight deadlines, so vector based selections and changes are much quicker and easier and although we lose some of the abilities you get with pixel based editing, it’s much faster for us. At the end of the day, both are really good apps that you can utilize for pretty much any application you put the time into.

Awesome, thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Yes. Couple things to keep in mind though: When you draw in concepts app, you are drawing from point to point with a line of information in between to dictate what that stroke looks like. That's why we can change a pen stroke to a marker stroke in concepts. It's all just a series a points with info between each point telling the program what tool we use and what that should look like. However, when you export the .dwg to a program like Autocad, autocad is only reading the lines. So if you used a watercolor brush for instance, CAD doesn't detect that information. Instead, it only sees a line between two points. In autocad, you can take that line and change the line type and style, but the perameters you set within concepts app won't carry over. Make sense?

Hey Jo! It’s whatever fits your style! I typically use the “pen black” style in SketchUp with detail turned all the way up, or I used “Construction Style” with extensions set to 4. Once in concepts I use the “Pen” tool. Gives a little thickness at the ends to emphasis the start and stop which matches my traditional style.

@@landshaperstudio thanks! I really like using the sketchy pen styles in sketchup but have yet to find a way of exporting just this linework with transparent faces so that I can have the sketchy linework as the top layer in a concepts render. I can export a PDF 2D image from sketchup so that the 'faces' are 'transparent' but I lose the sketchy style. Do you know if that is even possible?!

@@johobbsgardendesign2915 Yep! So question, are you exporting screenshots directly from SU or are you sending to Layout to scale and add to paper size? My typical workflow doing what you're talking about is Sketchup>Layout>Concepts. If you're doing it this way, then all you need to do is go into the selected style, edit > Face Settings. Under style in the face settings select wire frame. I was able to set my linework on top exporting both PDF and PNG this way. Hope this helps!

@@landshaperstudio I'm exporting straight out of SU as a png and then into concepts. Thanks for the tip.. but in a 3D view you see all the back edges which is annoying? Can they be turned off? I appreciate you taking the time!

@@johobbsgardendesign2915 I I see. So in a 2d Plan view style is what I was referring to. If you wanted to do 3d, you can send the view to layout and then set the model to vector then explode the model. This will leave only the visible linework. You could then export that. Are you using sketchup on a computer or Ipad?

Thanks! I actually started out on Sketchbook when I was using my surface pro. I loved the setup, but switched to ipad just for ease of use while drawing and collabing with clients. Didn't have to wait for my windows system to boot up :) and those wonderful 30 min. sporadic updates! haha. The switch to vector was also huge. While it does have some limitations, it's just been much more fluid and fast for turnarounds and popping in and out of difference scales. We only work for other designers and its usually on a tight deadline so the ability to easily isolate, select and switch scales has been huge for our workflow. Thanks for the love!

Thanks! We all have different styles and I'm sure you're is unique and great on its own! Would love to see it. I know for myself, it took me years to build up my confidence on pen and paper. What I do in the app is just transfer that same method over.

Just give yourself some grace when starting out and know that it's ok to suck for a bit. I remember going from traditional media to digital felt like I was going back to where my trees looked like broccoli. :) But give it time and the results will come. There are a few more vids on our channel to help you along. Hope you find them helpful and there is more on the way!

Luckily almost all of my professors pursued some sort of traditional art on the side and so were big on traditional methods and being able to express our ideas quickly and effectively. LA, from what I see, has grown into something much more broad than it was in the past. For better or worst, is everyone's personal opinion, but the industry has grown to wear multiple hats. And many of those hats aren't very "design" oriented in the way of art but more purely function. As LA's grab more at civil engineering type projects and planning, I see alot more info-based / use-model design happening in the commercial spaces and the only ones that seem to be truly artful are the big competition based firms. I know thats painting with a broad and probably unfair brush, but that's just what I've seen. Seems less about hey, how can we collaborate with other professions and make what they need into an artful marriage of form and function...and more about: Grading? Planning? Survey? Structural? Yeh we can do that too. Lol. I think what we are seeing more is a shift in the profession as a whole and less about the graphics. Heck, the graphics alone now are pretty much it's own profession. Atleast that's what my company does :)

Thanks! And it depends. Some design/build firms that we’ve drawn for just need a simple sketch since they have a good idea of what they want to do whereas some need detailed drafting. However, usually it’s not the contractors that dictate the final deliverables. It’s the city (permitting) and the homeowner. This was a concept sketch (1of2) that was presented to this client. Then 3d, and lastly a submital set for project permitting.

@@landshaperstudio Thanks for that info!

Thanks! So previous to this we presented two black and white concepts. This was the revised so a decent amount of linework was already there. But time between all three concepts (2 original, 1 revised) was about 5-6 hours. With about 4 of that being actual drawing time.

Thanks so much. Trying to make more time to create more content :)

I appreciate that!

I love it. It's fairly easy to learn, simple scaling, and I really like the fact that it is vector based. No loss of clarity at any scale.

For me I personally gravitate toward concepts app. Mainly due to clarity and the general workflow of vector vs pixel based. Morpholio feels more traditional, and has some really cool features though! But I just hate having to create so many layers when working in and out on a larger piece since morpholio uses the same amount of pixels for each layer no matter the size.

Not sure how to properly react to that, but must be doing something right! So I'll take it! Thanks!

I wouldn’t mind giving paperlike a go. However, I’m so used to glass now is probably not enjoy it as much!

Thanks! Vector based opens a ton of options. Not to discredit the use of Morpholio or Procreate. But the infinite canvas and no pixelation are great to be able to change size and scale on a whim. Especially in our line of work. Thank you for watching! Glad you are finding it useful!

Hi Spencer, From what I can tell you might be referring to the section about layers or me using the guide tool that may be out of view? I’ve been primarily shooting these in 9:16 format and focusing on one main area. For instance, the main topic here is the tool wheel and what I use there. I’ll be uploading more in depth standard view formats in the near future.

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the kind words! More is definitely on the way. Just trying to find the time to wrap it up! Keep working at it! It’s cliché but practice makes perfect. When I started drawing trees traditionally in school, they looked like sad broccoli and I’d be lying if I said it didn’t backslide a bit when I switched to digital :) Just got to stick with it! Also, find your style. Being inspired by others, for sure, but develop your own language. Once you’ve figured that out it all becomes second nature.

Hey! So in this video we didn’t show the SketchUp process as it was super simple and assumed. Sorry. Will do a more thorough walkthrough in the near future. But all I’ve done here is drawn a quick plan in 2d in SketchUp, set my camera to parallel projection in top view and export the 2d image. Hope this helps!

Working on a more in depth video now. The SketchUp part is just drawing in 2d and exporting through layout. Same type of workflow can be used with auto cad! Just prefer SketchUp!

Hey Rob, we are using the Concepts App. I'm drawing this on ipad pro, but the app is available on windows and android as well. Hope this helps!

Sorry for such a delay in response. I am using the 2019 iPad Pro with ConcpeptsApp. No, Im not currently using Paperlike. I've heard it feels great, but I've always drawn on glass, even when I first started with my Surface Pro. Tutorials - Working on it! I've run into some heavy time constraints but definitely something I would love to put out. Stay tuned!

Hi! We are working on releasing our object pack as well as videos showing how to create your own. If you check out our channel, we do have a KZbin short with a step by step creating objects in ConceptsApp.

Thanks! This is on the iPad Pro 12.9 (2019). And yes. We are putting some stuff together now! Just taking our time to make it a little more profession and clear! Hit the bell so you see when we drop!

On the way! We are working on some now so hit the bell so you’ll be notified when we post. Thanks!

I am using an app for the iPad called “Concepts App”

@@landshaperstudio thank you !

Hi Stefan, we are pretty much drawing solely in Concepts now however we still collaborate with a few clients that prefer morpholio. Since we provide support for other companies we have to be efficient in both :) Personally, I prefer concepts as it is vector based. So clearer line work and scalability. I also prefer the layering system. Less clunky and just select and draw. Morpholio has better perspective tools, but I usually freehand those anyway.

thx, greatings from Austria 🇦🇹@@landshaperstudio

Thanks! Real time was a little over 30 minutes. But this went so quickly since it the design was entirely straight lines! So leaning on the snap feature made the line work move very quick!

@@landshaperstudio that’s awesome man! Keep up the good work and I’ll continue to follow you and look for new videos and posts! Enjoy the day!

For the concepts app, if you look under the toolbar "Precision" there's a "snap" option which will snap to grid and draw at 0, 90, and 45 degree angles. Hope this helps!

Thank you, I will
