A fun way to add colour to a sketch using an app like Procreate, Fresco, or Photoshop

[@kevinsoul9988]

Well done, Stefan. A really useful tip on rendering

[@StefanMarjoram]

Thanks! Definitely a fun thing to try. It looks good if you take a photo of your sketchbook too. Somehow, seeing the sketch in context is just a bit more interesting than the usual image filling the page.

A pleasure - really nice to know you’re enjoying them :)

Love this work I will have to try this technique and see how it goes. Great videos I could watch you do this all day.

That's lovely to hear - thanks Christopher!

Beautiful work

[@StefanMarjoram]

Thanks so much!

[@VesperAU]

Really cool Stefan. Something I must try on some of my better sketches 😊

[@StefanMarjoram]

It’s so simple - definitely give it a try!

Is Procreate an app only or do they sell something to use on a wacom, etc. I have yet to find where it is more than an apple ipad app. Am I missing something?

[@StefanMarjoram]

Procreate is only for the iPad but you can definitely do exactly the same process in pretty much any app that has a layers function - Photoshop, Fresco, Infinite painter, Sketchbook etc. Which app do you use at the moment?

[@XoVoX]

@@StefanMarjoram I use Photoshop, but have considered trying out Fresco based on your suggestions. Finding brushes you can use in each is a bit of a nuisance.

[@StefanMarjoram]

@@XoVoX You can import photoshop brushes into Fresco. They might not behave exactly the same but with a bit of tweaking you should get something you like. That said, there are loads of nice brush sets for Fresco - many of them free. I know what you mean about finding brushes. Whenever I buy a pack I'm usually completely overwhelmed with the sheer quantity. I usually end up picking my 10 favourites and putting them in a separate collection :)
