How to Add Shading in Procreate Using Clipping Masks

[@TerraTheWise]

I know this video is 3 years old but just wanted to say this was very easy to follow and was the most fun I've had drawing after trying to get back into art for years now. It was just what I needed.

[@skylar-lmusic8320]

How does this 7 minute ball look better than what I’ve been trying to draw for 3 hours 😂😂

[@kaitlyn6984]

Relatable 😂

[@jhoie2923]

True! Hahahaha!

[@lilyli421]

bro that's probably everyone

[@adelak]

It’s the brushes tbh

[@ThatOneCone1]

Reality for me too man

[@halia800]

You can also use the "Noise Brush" in "Materials" (4th from bottom) it gives about the same effect (this brush comes with the app) (btw thx for the tutorial it helped me a lot with the colors I just needed a free brush I can use)

[@alvaro6173]

i was using a basic soft air brush and it looked terrible, using the noise brush instead actually helped. so thank you

[@tomate1971]

Try morrilla in drawing

I'm just getting into drawing and Omg it's nuts. Never should have stopped. I got alot to learn but this video was quite helpful with shading and the texture brushes definitely are a huge help.

[@vchampsverte7122]

What's the difference between Alpha Lock and Clipping Mask? (Thank you for a wonderful video on Clipping Mask! It is VERY helpful to me.)

[@luma_llama]

If you turn on Alpha Lock, it means that whatever you paint on that layer will stay within the shape. If you create a Clipping Mask layer above a normal one, whatever you paint will stay within the shape of the normal layer, but you have the benefit of having it on it's own, so you can turn it on/off, or make tweaks to just that clipping mask layer.

[@katymarinina]

luma_llama thank you, dude 👍 I came up here with the same question

Fantastic!! Thank you
