Well, this is embarrassing. A few months ago I made a 10 beginner Procreate tips video, but looks like I'm still a beginner because you guys pointed out a bunch of mistakes I was making.

That 1st tip is already a game changer
Thanks. Getting my first iPad this week just for art so I'm binging these videos
Exciting, enjoy the iPad :)
Same
oh heck yeah, thank you for the videos and thank you viewers for the dope comments. the slider fine-tuning blew my mind!
Yes, thank you guys watching for the tips and tricks!
#8. You can just tap copy and paste in 1tap. So swipe, copy and paste tap. Just 2 actions
You’re right wow 🤦
I didn’t realise there were so many ways to do the same action. I swipe left on the layer I want to copy and pick duplicate.
@@jaywalkerpicturesI can only find cut and paste not copy and paste whilst swiping? Oh wow! it’s at the bottom. Doh! I must have done that action hundreds of times when i didn’t need to. Thanks
I just started using procreate and found both your videos really helpful. Thx
Glad it was helpful!
That procreate canvas cheat sheet is amazing!
Thanks for the feedback!
#9 You can also continue recoloring more areas by pressing the small “continue” button that appears at the top. Then select the next area, and switch to a different color from the swatch, if you like, or adjust the threshold again by moving left or right on the canvas. And then select the next area, and so on.
Wow I gotta try that. Thanks for the tip!
For the color wheel I just change it to the square
Good idea 👍
I hope for an update that brings features from ProCreate Dreams to Procreate. As long as ProCreate crops the content of a layer as soon as I move the image outside the border I will not use the software.
That one frustrates me, too.
That’d be a nice addition
OMG... It's a meee!!! (Jim Mulvaney) 😁Thank you for the free pdf, It will definitely come in handy. I love how helpful the art community can be sometimes.
Haha thank u for the tip!
Number 8: You can also swipe your layer to the left and select Duplicate.
Ohh yeah that would be 3 steps, pretty good option
Omigod. Fantastic tips!Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
omg the canvas cheat sheet is a blessing, thank you so much!!!
Glad you like it!
omg iv been using procreate for years i completely forgot about the copy canvas and paste thank you thank you sm ❤
Happy to help 😊
Thanks for the canvas guide, super helpful dude 🤙
Thank you!
your website looks great! thanks for the video! good luck :)
Thank you Beth!
Damn, I didn't know that merge all layers and expand color wheel. This is very helpful 😃
Glad it helps!
Love some of these tips, will definitely come in handy… for the first one on this video though, you can also swipe down with 3 fingers and “copy all” then paste, et voila, same thing as copy canvas, maybe a little faster in case your menu isn’t already on the “add” tab 😜
Great point! Much easier than going to the top menu

Is there a reason why like…everyone uses the circle color selector? I use what’s called ‘Classic’ in Procreate because I feel I can get pure black and white easier and just in general see what exactly I’m adjusting better. However, EVERYONE (and I mean literally everyone) else I see online and in real life uses this circle. Am I doing something wrong? Is there something I’m missing? Should I switch?
I work with the wheel for a while because that's what I saw everyone use, but I have swicht to the "classic". Just comenting to let you know that you are not alone in this.
You're not missing out. Circle is just the default, but yeah I (and many of us) should try using the classic instead
As someone who uses a comic-book style workflow, where I want to import line art without a background and color underneath it, the coolest trick I learned with Procreate was how to separate the blacks from a flat image (such as scanned pencils or inks) onto their own layer. This comes from Color with Kurt, by the way.
You basically take your flat scanned image (black and white line art on a white background) and add a layer filled with black above it. Put a mask on the black layer. Copy the scanned image layer and then select the mask (with the color black). Paste (three finger swipe down and choose paste) into the mask, and then invert the mask. Flatten the mask and black layer and you'll have just the inks on an otherwise transparent layer.
The reason this is better than just making the inks layer a multiply layer is that sometimes we want to do a 'color hold' where we select part of the line art and make it a different color. For instance, we might want to make the line art around a character's face a skin tone, so it doesn't have such high contrast with the bounded color. With a multiply layer, we can't select the blacks cleanly to do this.
Interesting, thank you for the detailed tip! I’ll give it a try, might make it into the next tips video.
This sounds really interesting… I’d like to see it in action! It sounds like it would be something to watch and learn for me, anyway.
Thanks for the great tips… I tried visiting your site and it’s been down for the last few hours fyi… it sure if you’re aware.
It’s working for me, can u access it now?
Brilliant drawing by the way.
Cheers 😊
Copy/paste - is that not just the same as duplicating a layer? Which takes two actions?
You’re right - going to have to redo the video 🤦
@@jaywalkerpictures oh no!! 🥲
When trying to copy and paste between 2 different canvases, the copied element is pasted in a smaller size, even if both canvases are the same size and resolution. Do you know why this happens and how to fix it?
That hasn't happened to me, will give it a try
That slider trick is genius
I know right?
What size iPad are you using?
12.9inch iPad Pro - 2021 model
@@jaywalkerpictures thanks, I was thinking about what size to buy for art. The 11 inch ones might be too small for me
Go in store to try - but I agree bigger is better if you are using it for art
@@jaywalkerpictures. Beautiful set up. 👍 I learned so much just from this one video ✍️
🙂👍🙋🏻♂️
ipad size please
12.9 inch
