Avoid iPad Tattoo Design Mistakes

[@CONRADICAL970]

First off, I’m new to procreate and your software is awesome as well as your videos. I learned so much from the fast neo trad video, as that was my first real go at anything on procreate. So far these videos are killer… I want to mention what I learned from another program, that not all is lost if you accidentally do something on a layer you’re not supposed to. Simply go to the wrench hit copy, erase what wasn’t supposed to be there, open a new layer and paste to the new layer and boom, no need to redo everything. Super helpful when you boo boo on a layer, thank you so much for what you do you are helping me a ton.

Awesome to hear!!

At this point, have you ever thought of using the automatic selection and copy paste to create a new layer with the black and then remove it from the sketch? I make this mistake a lot and am going to try this next time…. I will keep you posted

Hi Russ. Thanks for putting this series together. After years of using Procreate, I’ve recently been having an issue where the canvas will move, rotate, or jump on me as soon as my palm touches it and I’m about to make a stroke. Or it will switch my brush to an eraser, or make various other touch/gesture related changes. Older versions of Procreate had a palm rejection setting, which is now absent in current versions. Any idea how to stop this from happening? It’s maddening when I’m trying to line out a piece and the canvas keeps moving on me.

Get one of those gloves since it will help glide your hand over the screen way smoother for linework and will leave no smudge on the screen non it will give extra input touches :)

Hi, thanks for checking out the series. I posted the last two episodes today so be sure to check them out. The first thing I was going to suggest, like TheChameleon2008 said below... the digital artist drawing glove may help you out. Beyond that, I would recommend reaching out to Procreate support and see if they have any ideas.

[@Tattoosmart]

Great point, thanks for jumping on that question.

I agree that procreate has very awesome features, including stabilization, however, you better practice practice and practice more, because that stencil has to go on someones body, and there is no magic button to keep your machine stabile.
