Lisa Glanz, recently I have bought a good many of your brush sets and I am totally pleased. I hope you keep on coming out with tutorials for these really “sell” your brush sets and help someone like me, a grandma who wants to write and illustrate children books (it is never too late). Thank-you for the wonderful help!

[@Lisaglanz]

I bought your brush set last month and I love it. As an abstract digital artist I don't do charming illustrations like yours , but I love watching you creating them . I learn so much about how to use your brushes. They so great for creating backgrounds and unusual textures!

[@Lisaglanz]

Fantastic!! That makes me super happy Eva! Thank you so much for your purchase, I hope you continue to have fun using the brushes in your work (which sounds amazing!) xx

Your coloring and drawing are amazing, everything is amazing. Can I find these brushes on Photoshop? I searched a lot and couldn't quite find them.

[@Lisaglanz]

Thank you so much for your lovely comments!! Unfortunately at this stage the brushes are only available for Procreate, so sorry about that! If you have any other questions at all, please don't hesitate to let me know.

[@janinequinn2948]

I absolutely loved your tutorial. I bought your Character Guide brushes last years but didn’t really know how to use them properly. After watching this tutorial I’m raring to go. You have totally inspired me to play. Thank you so much for sharing Lisa. X

[@Lisaglanz]

Yay!! Super happy this tutorial helped you with getting more comfortable with the toolkit shapes! Also have a look here for my weekly challenge where I use shapes from the all the kits to draw characters: www.lisaglanz.com/blog/category/character-drawing-toolkit/ Happy creating!

[@magdawilches-brzezinska5534]

Hello. I love what you do. Where did you learn all of this? I mean making your own Brushes and character drawing tool kit etc? :)

[@Lisaglanz]

Hi! So sorry for my slow reply! I am self taught 😊 So just spent a lot of time experimenting and learning what works in Procreate.

[@SnackAttack6]

Really enjoyed watching you create, love your work ❣️

[@milly_and_me]

Hello from Australia 🇦🇺 Lisa, I’m new to Procreate but have used Photoshop years ago. Could you please let me know first if this is a good kit to start with? Also does the kit come with brushes for Procreate and Photoshop? I’m thinking about getting Photoshop again. At the moment I have Procreate in my ipad. Also can you use Procreate on a laptop? Thank you for your lovely videos your an excellent tutor. 😊

[@Lisaglanz]

Hi! Yes the Character Drawing Toolkit is definitely compatible with Adobe Photoshop. If you are new to drawing I would recommend also having a look at the Easy Peasy Animal Drawing Kit, it might be a better intro for you. You can find it here: www.lisaglanz.com/shop/easy-peasy-animal-drawing-kit-draw-cute-animals/ and here is a tutorial on how to create your first animal character: www.lisaglanz.com/blog/drawing-adorable-animals-is-easy-peasy-with-the-animal-drawing-kit/ I also used the Instant Artist brushes in this tutorial, unfortunately they aren't compatible with Adobe Photoshop. At the moment Procreate is only compatible with Apple iPad. Hope that answers your question. If you have any other questions at all, please don't hesitate to let me know.

[@vickibridges8766]

Love it! Just purchased the set, can’t wait to play. Thanks so much for the lesson, it truly helps to understand your methods.

[@Lisaglanz]

Thank you so much Vicki, I really appreciate that! So glad that you found the tutorial helpful, I hope you enjoy using the brushes!

Hi Lisa, I am drawing for the very first timen Procreate, using your lovely brushes. When I want to start filling the head in whith white, it just paints over the eyes , nose and linework. (12:42 min). Do I need to do something special to prevent that (I'm on another later, so that isn't the problem ;-)

[@Lisaglanz]

Hi Femke! It sounds like the white layer is above your line work layer. You can change the order of the layer by tapping and holding your finger on the layer, then drag it up or down, in this case you will probably need to drag it under the line work layer so that it sits above your colour fill layers. Hope that helps!

Hi Lisa, is it (your toolkit) works on Procreate Pocket ? Please answer. Thankyou

Yes, the character drawing toolkits all work in the Pocket version of Procreate 😊

[@nicoleluna5381]

Can you please make a class on how you develop brushes?!

[@Lisaglanz]

That's a great suggestion Nicole! Although my brush making process is very organic and falls into the happy experiment category a lot 😊 I can definitely do some with the basics of brush making and tweaks that can improve your brush!

[@alexmatlock8954]

I just bought the easy peacy animal drawing, but seems like I don't have the brushes for this tutorial, can you please send me the link where I can get the tool kit for this tutorial? thank you

Hi Alex, Thank you so much for your purchase of the Easy Peasy collection! In this tutorial I used shapes from The Character Drawing Toolkit which you can find here: www.lisaglanz.com/shop/character-drawing-tooklit-for-procreate/

Where I can buy LG instant artist brush?

Hi Kavindu! Thank you so much for your interest in my brushes. If I'm not mistaken you've managed to locate them on my website. But just in case, here's the link: lisaglanz.com/shop

[@杨娟-c9k]

Where can i buy the stamp brush?

[@Lisaglanz]

They are available in my shop: www.lisaglanz.com/shop/character-drawing-tooklit-for-procreate/ Hope that helps!

[@dianecarubia1099]

why when i use my clipping mask it changes the ink pen colour, if i leave the clipping mask off the colour is much richer?

[@Lisaglanz]

Hi Diane, When you clip something to a layer it will only show on the areas that are painted on the original layer - it will also take on the opacity/translucent properties of the layer you're clipping to. And because some brushes are a bit translucent (especially watercolour brushes), ie. it’s not solid, the clip layer is not going to be a solid colour but rather take on the properties of the translucent layer underneath which will give you a "faded" result. This is why the results look different if you painted on a normal non-clipping layer vs a clipped translucent layer. You can duplicate the clipped layer to intensify the results if you like. Hope that helps!

[@dianecarubia1099]

@@Lisaglanz tghankyou so much Lisa i understand now and why its happening. I though it was something i was doin wrong xxx

[@ioanascozycorner]

I wish i understood how exactly you did the second sketch layer...i found it very confusing and difficult to replicate.In fact I wasn't able to

[@Lisaglanz]

Hi! I'd love to help if I can, can you elaborate on what you mean by confusing and difficult? Are struggling to follow along? You can always slow the video speed down if you need to. Or are you struggling with getting light sketch lines?

[@ioanascozycorner]

​@@Lisaglanz Hello! First of all i want to thank you that you took from your time to answer me. In the 2 nd sketch layer,there are indeed fine lines that you added.They also contribute to a bit more shadow which is cool.It looks very easy to do but , it's really not😂, it's visible you are a pro,and you got "that touch".I tried and it made the whole drawing look bad.What I don't understand and is how to add them,as I can't see your brush strokes ,and there's no explanation on how to add them.I can hear the sound of scribblings and that's about it.I hope it's ok that I make a bit of a suggestion.Maybe you could enable the brush cursor from procreate.Sometimes it's not clear at all where you're drawing or adding details,as it's not visible, and if it's not a lot of work,maybe explain in detail what kind of brush strokes to add,so beginners like me can understand a bit better.

[@Lisaglanz]

@@ioanascozycorner Thank you for your reply! I completely understand how difficult it could be to not see my hand movements. This was one of my very earlier tutorials where I didn't have all the equipment to record my hand, but thankfully since then I have a better setup 😊 So all my latest tutorials will show my hand. Regarding mastering the sketch lines, this just takes practice. The more you draw the better you'll have control over your pencil and be able to create both subtle and defined line work. Keep going and practice often, it will get easier I promise!
