      @@mrcrow000 I’d say it’s worth it if you have the budget. I use an iPad mini 5 and it’s great. It’s just that if you don’t have the money, premium pencils and a sketchbook are just fine. But I wouldn’t buy it strictly for drawing by I use it for school, drawing, entertainment, etc. but my point is that don’t buy it just for drawing.

    Thank you, James, for your calm and clear tutorials. I am absolutely new to digital art and using Procreate in particular, and I have been trying various UA-cam tutorials, but so many must expect some basic level of knowledge which I don't yet have, leading to confusion & disappointment- yours do not! I am also grateful for the amount of knowledge you share for free. Once again, so many tutorials require you to become a Patreon member to access the lesson in full, yours don't and as a very new ,very broke budding art student, I cannot afford to be a Patreon to anyone right now- so a very big thank you for sharing your expertise for free.

    When I drag the color to fill the drawing, what happens is that the entire canva is filled with the selected color. I select a specific layer, a color, but nothing has changed. Can u help me?

      @JamesJulier-Artist  Рік тому

      It just depends on your budget, I prefer the larger 12.9 iPad Pro, but if you want it to be more portable and you don’t need it to power lots of 3D applications etc then the iPad Air is great. Having said that a standard iPad is decent enough as it’s still compatible with the Apple Pencil. I prefer the Apple Pencil 2 that has a better charging system, so I’d go for the iPad Air or a used iPad Pro.
