The disable touch in preferences is a life saver. I was going mad wondering where all the extra marks were coming from. Haven’t finished watching yet, but thanks!!!

The best thing is to read your reviewers comments.. Your content your reviewers are both awesome 👏

[@adamw5805]

disable touch actions only works if you have a apple pencil.

[@candiceluo9029]

Indeed! I bought a glove just for this but it is warm and unnatural. Wish I had seen this earlier!

[@FortinInk]

I watched 50 of these videos when I first got procreate back in October. Combined, they didn’t show me half of the cool shit you did. Hell yes

Hi

Lmao yeah, I already paid enough for pro create itself

[@Kev27RS]

@@colewook Yes, because it's so expensive... 😂

Is not free, You tube pay him and we enjoy learning

[@ing.barbarapastuchova2378]

just to add to the tip number 12, you can also drag an image to the palette section and it's going to make the palette itself :) great vid!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Indeed!

[@garymcderp1146]

Oh man that’s an awesome tip! Thank you.

[@ZowiChan]

These tips are life changing. The pen pressure was bothering me so much! Thank you!

[@faelencrepe]

I just ordered an iPad for the very first time in my whole life. As I'm very much behind on the Ipad Procreate train, I'm using tons of tutorials and adding them to a playlist so I can always go back to find quick tips to help my art. Thanks for this amazing, quick, concise, yet incredibly informative/educational video ♡ Thank you!!!! Keep up the amazing work

[@Tanknuggets217]

Likewise! How do you like the Ipad?

[@bigd5625]

I’ve been through three iPads. Now I just bought the 2022. There’s nothing like canvas. 🤷🏻 for me it’s a waste of money. However I had to get it for my job. I tattoo so it’s fast and you don’t need paper as much. But there’s nothing like canvas or water color paper. I got a 2000 paper weight lol. For the people that don’t have one…. You can NOT paint on the iPad. You make marks with the pen lol. I recommend start on canvas first. You paint with a brush not a pen. Just saying.

[@Mediocre_monkey]

I’m doing the same thing rn

[@masquerobot2844]

This has some of the subtler tips we all wish we had starting out and rarely found because it’s honestly difficult to develop a way to explain these, many people just “do” them naturally once they learn and can’t pass it on. You conveyed these very well!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Thank you 🙏

[@ab-vz4ps]

could you do a tutorial on how to make your own brushes? the procreate brush studio offers a lot of options and quite frankly its intimidating, would love if you could do a video on that :)

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

I’m planning on exactly that 😀

[@rameezrahaman3222]

First 5 tips were absolutely necessary for me as a beginner. Thank You :-)

[@emilyhernandez9204]

I haven’t even finished watching this video and already there are so many things that I didn’t even know about that I know will be EXTREMELY helpful in my art journey. Thank you so much for making this video, I know it will not only help me but so many other struggling artists out there. Seriously, thank you. I usually don’t even comment on videos but I don’t think I’ve ever watched a more helpful “top tips” video in my life :))

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Happy to help 😊

[@ginamiller2975]

Creating the 'multiply' layer for sketched drawings was so helpful. I have been tracing my drawings and it's a tedious process, plus I notice my drawings have a stiffer, less painter look when I do that. AND THE DISABLE TOUCH ACTIONS - A LIFESAVER. No more random knuckle streaks across my drawings - they were so annoying! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@isabellef1663]

I've had my iPad for maybe 3 months now and using Procreate just as long... After watching just 5 minutes, I feel like I'm a newbie again lol. Thank you for sharing!

[@potatooolatke]

Same! I thought I was pretty comfortable with Procreate but turns out I've missed most of these tips that solved issues I've been frustrated with.

[@marleerose1966]

I just got my ipad for christmas so I’ve had it for a few months and I cannot believe I didn’t know about the double tap feature on the pencil!! Was so annoying !! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼

[@uncrustables]

oh my gosh the gesture control saved my life i hated the tiny marks i accidentally make 😭

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Yeah I think it should be set that way automatically!

I am receiving my first ever ipad in 2 days. All because of your videos. Cant wait to immerse myself in digital art for good. Thank you for your epic works and tutorials. Looking forward to your future videos as well.

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Thank you, hope you love using it

[@TestamentCain]

This is so informative. I just recently switched from clip and ibis to procreate, so I'm still very new to this program. And the left handed thing!! That's so nice lol

[@collin1240]

Great tips! Thank you. I'd offer an addition to tip 18, and that is lock your sketch layer so you don't accidentally add color to it and only find out much later.

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Great tip thank you

[@chives240]

Omg this is so smart you have-no idea how much i color my sketch layers

[@artzbyme4438]

How do you do that?

[@collin1240]

@@artzbyme4438 Select the layer in the "Layers" palette, drag it to the left, and "Lock" will appear (followed by "Duplicate" and "Delete").

As someone who's been working with drawing tablets and paint tool SAI since they were about 10 years old - this is amazingly useful. Thank you so much! I just got an apple pencil for the first time and feel like a lost puppy with procreate haha.

Turning the double tap off is going to make my life so much easier! I was constantly switching to the eraser by accident. Thanks!!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Haha my pleasure

[@thenar]

James, Thank you. I find it hard to keep up with all the hidden and not-so-hidden tools in Procreate. Your "Tips" videos have been very helpful to me. I'm retired now, so I just use Procreate for personal enjoyment and it's nice to know how to solve some of these problems in simple ways. Also your work is always lovely to look at.

[@HMaxTube11]

“Useful” “Really helpful” Yes, all of them.👏👍⭐️🙏

OMG THE PRESSURE TIP IS A LIFE SAVER!!

[@ninaanns7226]

Best tutorial I’ve seen so far. Explained in a way that us simpletons can understand lol. Thank u 💕

[@JessieGau]

like other audience replied, I can't believe this tutorial video is free. I can not draw/paint at all, but I just got my apple pencil one week ago for note taking, also trying to do some hand lettering on iPAD, I found ProCreate is really an amazing app. And your tutorial is the best I've seen, also the way you explain thing is easy to understand. The your speaking speed and ascent is easy to follow even for me as Asian. I would like to help you on the Chinese Subtitle translation if you want. I really think this video absolutely deserve much more audience! Thank you for your sharing!

these are the best tips! Especially the first one, thank you! the quality of line is much mote natural now. Thank you :)

Dear James, I’m from Sri Lanka and just started to create content in procreate. Believe me, your tips and tricks video is a life saver. Thank you so much ❤️

[@mistirose]

Fabulous! I’m new (today!) to procreate and have watched a lot of videos that raced through the info. Thank you for this thorough moderately paced information. I was able to follow along without a lot of pause/rewind. Tips were quite helpful! I have subscribed and look forward to learning from you. Merry Christmas!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Happy to have helped 🙏

[@hudamasood]

Ugh. I’m so glad I found this. I thought there was something wrong with my NEW iPad, when it kept switching in between paintbrush and eraser and drove me mad. Thank you! Fantastic, fast paced video.

[@PresyceBaez]

I was learning so much before the "advanced" section 😂😭 Also initially I thought this would be another basic tutorial. There were some points that I knew already sure but MAN you did a great job and I learned so much here. Thank you. I know I'm a year late haha!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Very glad it helped 😊

[@xz6065]

I have been using procreate for 2 years and I didn't know that I can edit the pressure curve. Thank you so much, this is so useful!

[@Miriam3]

Loved all of the tips, and very happy that you talked about the pressure curve!

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

It’s such a simple fix but honestly it’s impact is huge, I think the default pressure setting is wrong personally

[@annaguest7828]

I've been a Wacom loyal digital artist for a decade and just purchased my first iPad. This tutorial was incredibly helpful, I feel like I'll be able to switch over to the new tablet and software with much less headache now, thank you so much!

[@MeticulousTechTV]

Great video! I'm brand new to both Procreate and the iPad and this helps a ton! One bit of feedback, timestamps would be massively helpful for referencing things in this video. I've come back to it a few times and being able to jump to each tip would've saved a lot of time.

[@brahmsforever4313]

Thanks for this! The info was so helpful. I'm a very new user and some of what I was doing was frustrating me - like lightening up on the touch to get thinner lines. My pressure smoothing graph was wonky! FIXED thanks to you! Glad I found you!

Ha! I thought that my iPad was glitchy, it would seemingly randomly, toggle back and forth between the eraser and the brush. It was so irritating. Thank you so much for educating me.

[@JamesJulier-Artist]

Lol yeah it’s a silly feature, great in theory but in practice...

[@shnsnto]

thank you. im forever a samsung fanboy and i just got my ipad pro 11 a couple of days ago. honestly iOs is so confusing for me and procreate is so minimal that it took me a lot of searches to understand how to use some of its function. this is by far the best tutorial/familiarization out there. 🙏🙏🙏

You just saved me. I didn't knew about the double touch on the pencil, but I had some trouble, not understanding why I switched to the eraser.
