    What I don’t understand is when I have a large image created in procreate and need to scale down for a different purpose of the same image it becomes pixelated. When I try draw it fresh on the smaller canvas, ie 300px x 300px every line that I draw is pixelated. How do I avoid this?

    EVERYONE!! The solution is to switch on the Nearest Neighbor option when you select the transform tool (mouse icon) , i think the default is bicubic, it's next to the ''fit to screen'' option, just switch that to nearest neighbor and your problem should be fixed

    my problem with blurry lines more comes from duplicating a layer (don't even change the size, might flip it or rotate the image)... I use canvas size in pixels 4050X3240 DPI 300 and the blurred lines never used to be so noticeable until the last update.

    In photoshop I always work at 6k on long end and 200dpi and its very high res image.i can zoom in quite far in without getting the blurriness. Not the case on iPad for some reason :/ and when I export these files they lose quality as well. No scaling involved whatsoever.

    what I dont get is when I use a procreate stamp to add tattoos onto my art work I size it down to fit and when I use it then it becomes pixelated but at its larger size its not blurry. I don't get why this is an issue if I'm going down and not up in size.

  • @Will-sq3ip
    @Will-sq3ip 2 роки тому +8

    To be honest, this doesn’t help much.
    I found my own solutions. Once the object is resized, I use “Sharpen” to clean out the details but not always work because of the ‘noise’ or specks but better than nothing.
    But as for the blurry edges, I select the outside of the object and delete the outer edges, duplicate the same layer so the edges darken or widen. Merge together, select outside and delete the outer edges and repeating the process until it looks good as it can be.

    • @noctia_art
      @noctia_art 2 роки тому +1

      This is the MOST helpful one yet! Also, once you've fixed the blur, you can fix the noise by creating a clipping mask above it and color it in with the color you were sketching with.. sure beats redrawing a whole detailed hand all over again. 🙄

    • @Will-sq3ip
      @Will-sq3ip 2 роки тому

      @@noctia_art Thanks.
      I have another add method. Go to your layer box, select the desired, then click on select button and click inverse, this way, it can select hard place. And then use the select-delete-duplicate process.
      I should’ve to mentioned that it work the same with outlines but be sure to do this process before fill with color, not just to look good but prevent the color from spilling out. Make your outlines are ‘sharp’ and solid.
      And be sure to duplicate more outlines as back-up if the current one messed.

      Rotation shouldn't give you too much blurriness unless you're working super small - I'd create your artwork larger from the beginning (and never scale it up as you work) - that should help!

    • @EveryTuesday
      @EveryTuesday  4 роки тому +1

      Hey! It's likely you're creating your artwork at too small a size to begin with (this makes pixels more obvious) - I'd recommend creating a larger canvas size and creating your artwork on that canvas at a larger size. Remember to view it zoomed out - if you zoom up tight to something it will always show those pixels, so you want to make sure you're looking at it at a distance others will be seeing it 👍

    • @verifor
      @verifor 4 роки тому +1

      You can adjust the threshold of the fill to fix the line edges; When you fill in the shape with the color, don’t release for a few seconds. This will allow you to move left and right and adjust how much fill you want done. The faster you move left or right, the more adjustments the threshold will make. When you release, procreate will keep it’s adjustment threshold, for the next time you do this technique. If you mess up on the threshold adjustment, you can undo the adjustment, and try again, because it’s saved the threshold from the previous attempt.
