Besttttt procreate tips EVER

[@the_flying_papaya]

thank you so much! this means a lot to me 🥹

[@TheHobokenArtGal]

Just found your channel. Thanks for the tips on procreate, some were familiar to me and about 3 were not.

[@the_flying_papaya]

Oh thank you ! I’m glad ! Yes some are more beginner oriented and some are more complex tips. A little bit of everything , welcome!

[@merviart]

Nice tips, usually I find out about these things about Procreate accidentally. 😅

[@the_flying_papaya]

Hehe thank you! ❤I will create more of these tips in the future! 😊

[@JamesWilliam70]

Thank you

[@the_flying_papaya]

Your welcome! I’m glad it helped!!❤

[@sjlosiaa2376]

So helpful!! Thank you for the tips. When you transfer copies of layers between different canvases/projects like you showed, does it affect the quality of the artwork in any way? Thanks!!

[@c.augustin]

The Reference Box is the one killer feature of Procreate that I haven't seen on any other similar app - I can put a photo in there and have it always at hand. And even better: I can pick colors from this photo! (I'm using Procreate only to colorize B&W photos, not for drawing, but I'm sure it's also handy for drawing/painting.)

[@the_flying_papaya]

Oh that’s good to know! I’m curious on how you colorize b&w photos🥰, since I’ve only use it for drawing! So many different ways to approach this feature! Thank you for your comment!

[@Psalms20A21]

🧠Thank You🌺Will share🌿

[@the_flying_papaya]

Your welcome ! ❤ I hope it helps!

[@lizquenlizquen5314]

Hi. I noticed that each time I use warp and distort features, the images become blurry. Any idea how to prevent this? Thnx!

[@the_flying_papaya]

Hi! I actually tried in mine and it doesn’t happen. Try to set it to “bicubic” ( it’s under the warp tool). I hope it helps

[@lizquenlizquen5314]

@@the_flying_papaya thanks for responding. I have set it to bicubic ever since. Or does it affect only those small images? Tnx again.
