Illustrating On the Go with Procreate

Coloring! With our sketch being ready and set we can now take a soft brush and start to create a first idea of what colors we want to use.

Now we are all set up to start the main work on our illustration. We are going to build up the shapes on different levels and block in the colors, as well as learn more tricks in Procreate.

Now we can go crazy by using our brushes and create textures to enhance the depth of our illustration. This part is where you should take your time and experiment to find out what looks best for you.

Let’s wrap up and complete the finishing touches: We will add smaller details like leaves for the trees and finalize the color, as well as play with negative spaces. Remember to name all your layers accordingly if you want to use your illustration to animate it later!

It’s done! Congratulations. You will learn in this lesson how to crop your illustration for Instagram, as well as how to export it as a psd file for further possible animation. I hope you enjoyed this class and l look forward to seeing your creations, so feel free to tag me on social media!
