What's your FAVORITE art program?? Ms Paint Gang rise
Procreate 😍👌🏻Ross bring more procreate,please
I personally use Procreate as well. If course, my art style is none near you, but overall the experience I have had with it since 2019 (I think) is soooo good. I have tried Clip Studio Paint and two more programs, which were not that fun to use. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this program!
Autodesk Sketchbook. >.>
Probably because I have only ever done sketches...
Clip studio paint, because I can focus just on painting and also because I paid only 20$ for it in 2016 and I'm still getting new updates.
MS paint :D
The true advantage of drawing on the iPad is being able to draw on the couch and relax. Sometime you don't feel like being attached to a desk.
Hey, I'm thinking of buying an iPad. Based on what u r saying, is 12.9 inch iPad will give off the same vibe because well obviously it's not as compact as 11"
not a fan of traditional arts?
@@korratheaustralianshepherd5804 *being able to draw digitally on the couch and relax.
@@plegianscum i saw that, was just curious if pencil/pens/markers and drawing board didnt suit your fancy is all
@@korratheaustralianshepherd5804 it's not exactly about that, i draw both traditionally and digitally but i only do traditional when I'm pretty sure about what to do and how, material are expensive 😅 that's why is way cooler to have an ipad to just mess up a digital canvas with digital materials
I left Photoshop for one reason, and that's because of their swap from a traditional license to a subscription model.
I would rather pay once and not worry about recurring fees and have something I know I'll be using for the rest of my life.
Procreate does that, and on PC, Clip Studio Paint does it. Kinda hate that on iPad CSP is sub model, but I'll stick to PC for that.
Yeah the subscription model kinda runied it for me especially when you can get Adobe cs6 before they went creative cloud.
yepp same clip studio offers so many things more and you pay one time. i love it
You're not missing anything with csp ipad. it is just a port over and not built from the ground up so a ton of things are lacking in it
sweats in pirate bay... 👀💦
Same. I switch over too. I hated the subscription.
Finally! Welcome to the Procreate fam :D
ua-cam.com/video/MyFhsmJ5wzc/v-deo.html
Fax yep...
*internet hug
check out Light Brush, maybe?
My exact thought but it seems you've jumped to photoshop Lucas come back lol
I wonder if Ross found "Chromatic Aberration"? , now, that, would be a cool "OOoooooo!!!"
I will say I’ve used procreate for years at this point and honestly for iPad and Apple Pencil it’s a great app. I do say where it shines is it’s portable sketch book area the technical pencil is pretty much all I need for sketching up my illustrations and I understand that changing brushes is a bit hard mid flow I think I have at least created and made multiple sets of the same brush with different settings over the course of time to minimise my need to go into brush settings and edit them but for new users who haven’t had the time to do that it can be a bit of a turn off and flow break.
I will say taking a sketch from procreate to Affinity Designer is a good jump if you are a mainly photoshop user as Affinity is basically photoshop and illustrator in one and might be more interesting to you Ross for your needs tho I personally cannot vouch for how good a painting app it is as I’m an illustrator type artist.
Yeah Agreed I had to create some custom brushes and the right matte screen protector to really enjoy procreate
Is ipad 9 good enough for running Procreate?
Procreate layer cap is based on the size of your canvas, and if yours capped at 33 you must’ve been using a hugggee canvas
About 6000×4000 Not so huge.
@@hypocrite9836 it's A2 size 300dpi, I think its huge, bcoz usually I draw in A4 size (2k x 3k)
Once you’re used to the cap becomes pretty automatic to discard or merge layers, I remember how scared I was of having problems with it but in the end helped me not be so scaredy-cat with my work.
The layer cap depends on cavas size and size of Ipad ram
Yeah the 7000 x 7000 px canvas caps at 34 layers
LET'S GO! ROSS IS TRYING IT OUT! I love how you review programs
IT WAS A LIL HARD BUT I DID IT!!!
Used CSP and PS together until Adobe got too expensive. CSP has been amazing for the last few years and is user-friendly.
Csp is way better than Procreate!!!
@@daisies667 what is CSP?
@@computethis1533
Clip Studio Paint,, it's also one time purchase :DD
@@donutly tablets still do subscription tho t__t although i use the pc version haha, csp is a really good investment
@@daisies667 trueeee
Got an iPad Pro last year and downloaded Procreate after hearing so many positive reviews. It's crazy, but it's actually made drawing fun in a way I didn't think possible! The app's just so fast and intuitive, it kinda throws me off when I go back to my desktop drawing software
I feel the same way such a cool way to create on the couch or anywhere really
the girl’s painting: “it’s not bad, it’s just ABSTRACT!!”
love the vid as usual ross, i’ve been waiting for procreate! 😌
I loved the line " If I played around for a few minutes I could probably find where everything is". At first view thats absolutley true, but I can promise there are so many shortcuts and hidden features in procreate, its crazy. 10/10 would recommand every first time user to check out youtube videos of that beforehand, to find a lot of them :D
(also, it autosaves the artworks. That is a blessing by itself :D)
Missed this kind of videos Ross. And your piece came out so beautiful ✨
Yes, Procreate lack of some things, but one use could be to just draw anywhere, and still having top quality.
Agreed with the advice you give. We choose the platform that's best for each of us ✨😊
The one issue i have with Photoshop, is that it lacks that painterly feel. Procreate has a lot of brushes that mimmic paint flow and blending and I love it.
learn photoshops brush tool its great!!
Photoshop has so many brush variations and the mixer brush too for the painterly effect.
It just seems like you don't know how to set up brushes in photoshop that accommodate your needs... you can also download thousands of packs for free...
Personally for me Procreate was alot easier to get the hang of compared to Photoshop. I also like collecting custom brushes from artists.
I missed those videos so much it ached !!! Thank Ross
I find myself rewinding the intro like SOOOO many times. It's so good and satisfying!
you can alter the layer cap if you create your own canvas! there are options available to change the color, layer cap, and so on if you make your own canvas, or you could edit pre-existing ones. My canvases cap at around 211, though I rarely exceed like 30.
I've been waiting for this vid for so long!! Welcome to the Procreate family Ross!!!
Although paper-like screen protector is good for grip, it also wears out your apple pencil’s tip really quick! You might go through a few tip replacements if you draw a lot!
I think I like the feel of inexpensive silicon tips on the Apple Pencil without having to worry about wearing-down the pencil's own tip.
Great video Ross. Love seeing you use Procreate! 💖
As many programs as I've used through the years, I am still being drawn back to Photoshop. Nothing tops the vast amount of power the program has. Hate the price, but for having the freedom to create anything, it's still worth it.
Agree. It's still the industry standard, like it or not.
I bought Procreate for the G1 iPad Mini, and even though I’m more of a doodler than a real artist, it was more than worth the price.
Man I haven’t watched you in forever! Nice to how well you’ve been doing :)
Yess ILY ross😍 thank you for the update!! Also I exclusively use photoshop so I might give procreate a shot
Epic dodging as always, Ross! Thank you for this video. Definitely been waiting to see/hear your opinions on the workflow. Can't wait to try the brushes in Procreate!!
Beautiful art as always my dude
I wish Procreate would be available for pc as well...
Now that you mention it a desktop version would be pretty cool! I could see myself being attached to my tablet though 😂
If they were then Photoshop has some real competition. Especially, if Procreate is a one time buy instead of recurring payments.
But then iPad sales would go down
I wish it was also available for Android as well
Also on Android..once I really wanted to use Procreate, but I only have a really good, but still Android and a Laptop😅
I like to use procreate to sketch out ideas because it can happen anywhere and anytime (like a digital sketchbook). Then I throw the sketch i like to photoshop or clip studio to color because yes i agree with ross that ps/cs has more features, no layer limits, and you can see all your brush settings all laid out
Clip studio has no layer limit?
@@TonyJeffers well I never encountered it, I easily go 200+ for design work.
@@dibel3669 oh good to know, what is your usual canvas size in clip studio?
Awesome, I cant wait to try this out. I'm in college for digital media design so we're going to be using a ton of these different apps.
Now if only someone would be so kind as to make Procreate available on Android, so that Android users could at least try it out :')
Yes pls. For now I am using Ibis Paint X. Its a wonderful app too.
おぉ！Procreateの動画を待ってました！いつも参考にさせていただいています。Procreateは毎日使ってますが、このレビューを見て魅力を再認識しました😊💕💕シェアありがとうございました👍🏆🏆✨
That PC pointed towards the camera in the background looks awesome, good set design!
Your professionalism is really increadible
All procreate needs is a true vector pen tool, more than 1 slots for brush shape like how clip studio pro/ manga studio pro has and a better text function that allows for circle text or even text on a vector line like in vectornator and this program will be the Photoshop killer.
Now this is pretty funky
Thanks for including Procreate in your brush pack!
You can change the brush settings you go to the brush menu and click on the settings for a brush and you can change a lot
Just bought the advanced pack. It's amazing ! I'm always happy to see your work ! =D
Is it just me or was the editing in this one absolutely fire? 🤌✨🔥🔥🔥
fire indeed!
I used procreate for the first time on my friend tablet and it was super fantastic. Very friendly and easy to used.
Welcome to the procreate gang bro
I've never had so much fun until I got my ipad and got procreate! it's just so convenient and easy. The thing about drawing tablets on pc is that the strokes are too hard to controll and it has its delay.
Everything you do is just so beautiful! 😢 😭 ❤️. I hope you make that work a Print. I will buy it so quickly! Glad to see you test procreate! I dabbled in it a little bit. But the layer cap messed with my flow a bit and is the only gripe I have. I genuinely come to 100+ layers since I make a layer for just about every single thing. So I'm sticking with csp but may try to mess with procreate a bit more.
But thanks again for the awesome vid! I always look forward to seeing you share something! Hope you have a great day Ross! Stay happy and healthy!
Omg I'm the same! I always have so many layers
@@RossDraws oh really!? Glad I'm not the only one! Lol.
People tend to ask me "how many layers was this?" And my answer always is "uuuuh...idk lol". I get so lost in the process I dont even keep track
But I also just bought the new brush pack and just finished the demonstration video! I'm so excited to really use them and get a feel for the updates you made!!
Thanks again!
The boss health bar for Photoshop is so accurate 🤣🤣
oh wow. Just got your Brushes. Really smart that we have to download the PDF first then in there get the brushes.
Yoooooooo finally!
You should draw the same thing on Photoshop so we can compare them! :) great video, as usual!
Nice job Ross, welcome to the Procreate family
Photoshop is not going away anytime soon. Not only is it still the absolute best solution for creating digital art, after all these years, but also so many companies are invested in having their employees use it, it's pretty much ubiquitous as THE program to make professional art assets (besides Illustrator) so that it would take a huge momentum shift to switch to a different program. If you're interested in working professionally, you need to know how to use Photoshop, period.
Procreate is a super cool program tho, if you're making art for yourself it's a perfectly good program to use.
i still smile every time you say "IT'S COLOR DODGE TIIIIIIIIIIIME"
Oooo you should try krita…that’s wut I use
Glad you tried it. I only use Procreate because I’m not very much into complex tools. This was a fun video!!!
Also if you want a program that fits more like Photoshop I recommend art studio pro on the iPad.
Yes thanks to procreate, photoshop and other drawing programs made more sense to me after I learned how to use procreate
i took an intro to digital painting course about two years ago. trying to learn how to use photoshop was SO stressful to me personally :,) i still dont fully understand
Really wish I could use procreate on a Cintiq Pro! That would be AMAZING!!
To me Photoshop was not made for drawing. I use it as a graphic designer, but when it comes to drawing, I just feel like it's filled with too many tools, and the ones that are easily accessibles are not always the ones that are the most useful. Toady, we are lucky to have way more drawing program options than back in 2006 😁 we can choose one that feels right ! My favorite is Clip Studio Paint
Amazing how I’m drawing on Procreate as this gets posted. Currently finishing up the line work of a drawing, and I have more of an affinity for Procreate than Photoshop in the sense that Procreate is leagues cheaper and has animation option. The max layers depending on your canvas size can be detrimental at some points, but if you flatten the layers you can edit easily, it’s pretty easy and fun!
Not to defend Photoshop, but it has a timeline, and in that regard, it's miles better than Procreate's animation tools. Procreate is better in MANY MANY other things, though
If you need a comporimise between PS and iPad use, I recommend Art Studio Pro. I tried to love Procreate when I first got my iPad, but I had such a hard time adapting my workflow after 10+ years of Photoshop. Art Studio Pro, especially with the customizability of the tool bar and the quick shortcut menu that's also fully customizable (it's great for if you don't make it a habit to connect a keyboard to your iPad for shortcuts), I was able to scratch the itch and the next thing I knew, I hadn't made a photoshop painting in all of 2021 haha. Going back to PS in 2022, I really ended up missing the smudge tool from ASP, but PS still felt like home.
Layer cap, seems like an iPad Pro and procreate,with 1 or 2 tb of ram would be perfect, though pricey...looove this work Ross,
Incredible
Ross, please gives demo of your advanced brush sets 2022 please
The price for photoshop and all adobe products really is the biggest issue, especially for beginners. I know I wouldn’t be using them at all if it weren’t for being a student. It’s just so much nicer to be able to purchase a licence up front and use it from then on.
I usually use clip studio to finish stuff but its so much fun to sketch in procreate. Especially since you can go anywhere.
Before watching, you're gonna enjoy the color dodge/add on procreate 😁
Thanks dir this Video!
Omg tysm for this video I really needs this because I really want opinions on Procreate and considering whether if using this app is worth it. Once again, 😘
I love that intro!
wanna try procreate for this
WHAT!? How the heck did I miss this video? I have been subbed since forever and even have the brushes pack. I love Procreate! Where have I been? Regardless of the price model, I think Photoshop will be around for quite a while. It is still the industry standard and if you want to work for a design firm or something along those lines in a professional capacity, it is almost guaranteed to be required knowledge. I mean, have you seen how long companies hold onto their licenses for other software? I only have the CC suite because my client pays for it. If it wasn't for his needs I wouldn't actually need it, so he gets to pay for my access to it.
still waiting on Ross trying Krita. I will keep waiting.
Anyone here use KRITA???? let me know fam
@@RossDraws I do!
@@RossDraws I used to. And I have a question. What canvas settings do u use on Procreate?
That's one of the reasons I stopped using photoshop after a while it was overwhelming. I used to for art and logo designing, and for roleplaying related graphics. Then later I learned about paint tool sai and used that for art for years until around '17-18 then I switched over clip studio pro and now I'm about to get clip studio ex cause I'm adding comics under my belt lol.
I'm not really apple user but an android user lol I tried procreate while at the store but didn't like the look or feel of it along with the pen it felt weird to me.
Welcome to the procreate family.
I hope You'll try Ibis Paint cause I really want to see how you draw in it
Me personally am a BIG Clip Studio Paint Girl. So totally glad it won hehe. I used to be Paint Tool Sai and I still enjoy it, but CSP is really cool and I feel that program is doing it's best to make sure it takes the place of all other programs so it's the only one you use. But I have always been interested in Procreate. Though I'm an automatically drawn towards any program that ISN'T subscription based
✨🍓Ross, you are phenomenal!🍓✨
The Photoshop looking hard to use and the background music was so funny 🤣
I have a friend who uses clip paint studios! And I am working towards getting Procreate for myself!
Finally
I always had my opinions about this app 🧐
My only complaint is the animation part. I feel like a second app just for animation would be they way to go.
I would GLADLY pay for that. They could really go all out and maybe replace the animation (data?), just put more 3d modeling stuff.
(Being able to make 3d models in procreate gives me goosebumps)
It's just lacking in my opinion. It can't really handle grouped frames. Maybe with a new app, it can support different types of animation.
Puppet for example
Or add sound (ik people asking for that)
Idk maybe I'm trippin.
Afaik Callipeg is a really good animation app for iPad, you can try that if you want
so what do you think about the procreate dreams announcement?
ohhh i am considering buying procreate. loving the tomodachi life music
Finneallyyyy
I last version of photoshop I used was I think cs3 since that was the last one I could “buy” refuse to rent my software. I switched to affinity photo, on1 for my Lightroom like stuff and procreate. Been a Corel painter user for years as well.
What procreate brush did you use to sketch and why size canvas ? That looks amazing 🤩
Damn this is the fastest time I've been clicking on video it just uploaded 1 minute ago
my first reaction to photoshop had been closing the program and going back to clip studio
I appreciate the open, free market of pc's over the restrictive, proprietary aspect of Apple products & any accessories needed. A mainstream tv news program showed Apple products costing $700, were only $60 to manufacture/ total. No thanks.
Skimmed video, did you cover one of the powerful feature, the build in recorder which allows for cool time-lapse videos???
wish i could do that magical trick for drawing🥰
Early ! Yeeey procreate !!
Photoshop, as the name implies, is made to edit photos. It's primary goal was never being a drawing / painting / digital art application, it just so happened to have elements which allowed it to be one while having little competition. So applications built from the ground up for the purpose of drawing would be, expectedly, more suited for the job
That's why you should always pirate photoshop if you want to draw!
LETS GOOOOO
You get more layers with the different ipad models, so pro has way more layers for the biggest size canvas u can use.
I gotta say, i really resonated with introducing myself to digital art and feeling overwhelmed by Photoshops interface like you showed in the intro. Procreate was easily the best ten bucks I ever spent.
procreate is definitely the best art program for art hobbyists and id argue for professionals on the go, its got the best bang for its buck, and great UI
CSP is not only cheaper for desktop but actually way better for artists than Photoshop. PS is raster graphic multi-tool that just happens to be useful for digital illustration, while CSP is laser focused on illustrators. By the way don't forget about KRITA! Can't beat FREE in price and I believe it's going to be for 2d what blender is for 3d :)
Yes thats what I was trying to put into words
Program doesnt matter your super skilled
I had the problem with the Layer cap as well but if you make your own canvas you can change the allowed amount of layers :) Nice drawing and welcome to the procreate fam XD
yeah the largest canvas size is 7000 px by 7000px with 34 layers on the 2021 model
If you give pros with whatever media, most of them will nailed it
that is my biggest gripe with PS, i can never use the mixer brush, ever. I can barely even use the smudge brush on larger canvases. It gets quite frustrating.
Average drawers dont really use photoshop cause of the cost, but if they want an industry job you will need to know PS. Thats just the reality of it.
Ross Draw!!! :)
