CHARCOAL in PROCREATE - Brushes and Techniques
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2024
- This has been one of my requested art guides I've been asked to make. My most well-received pieces and the style MOST people know me by now revolves around my gritty art style. I accomplish this by each of my pieces going through the "charcoal" phase in procreate. I use various texture brushes and smudge brushes and I employ techniques used by charcoal artists to achieve a certain look.

#Livestream #artstream
Beginner (very very beginner lmao) here and man this tutorial was great! Was able to get me started on a piece and im actually liking it for once lol. Youre funny and your vibes are great it kept me motivated/entertained throughout the whole vid and i definitely would love more tutorials and such keep up the great work man
I'm very glad to have helped then! Thank you
Still drawing?
yuh
BIG THXS !!
I love your Sculpting and Values approach, it's all about light and shadows ! Very useful !!!
I've just finished my first charcoal drawing with the 60% of your stream viewed. It was an skull and I used a reference image because I don't have any experience. I can say that I'm a perfectionist. And it is wrong when it comes to draw something because I always think that it need something else to finish. That's because I didn't finished the 99% of my drawings in the past. But now with charcoal and your masterclass of it I can say it's teaching me to be less perfectionist and exigent with my art and it helped me a lot to finish my first charcoal drawing (it was an skull) and it looks awesome. Now I will practice more and learn more about this beautiful art. Thanks for share your knowledge with us. Greetings from Argentina!
the details are insane wow, you deserve more subs man and I appreciate the default brushes since some artist just make you buy their brushes for you to follow what they do and a lot of them are not really cheap
This was very helpful, and it gave me inspiration. Thanks!
More of this! This is amazing!
Just found this video! This is such an awesome technique! I know I learned a lot
of this in art classes, but somehow it makes
so much more sense to me working in digital. Definitely implementing this into my work!
Thank you so much for such a helpful video! I love that you used the default brushes for this, it makes it a lot more accessible. I stumbled across your video as I'm planning to try a charcoal like drawing in Procreate (I'm doing some illustrations for a poetry anthology, and the next poem has pretty dark themes), and I'm feeling a lot more confident and excited to start now after watching your video! Thanks again :D
That is such a cool approach for dark art. I really love how your brain works. At this point i am trying to unsee the line to be more flexible and less strict with my art. This tutorial was a great help on that. And as a big plus it covered my most favorite traditional medium of all times. I'll love to try this in procreate.
Hi I just started to really learn to draw this was wonderful and interesting and this kind of stuff shows basic and fun ways to practice and I really appreciate it.
I'm very glad you liked it! I'm thinking I should make more of these :)
oh my goodness, you are amazing! Very informative
wonderful way to spend my day off drawing with you
Thank u very much this is what I was searching this for MONTHS.
Ahh man this would've been a perfect stream for me to be at. I would've asked a few technique questions 😂
Love this style!
Hello, thank you very much for the tutorials, they help so much
this video was life changing. ily
Thanks for this.
I can't believe this doesn't have many views.
Love this! Please definitely do more procreate tutorials! I just found you recently and love your work. You’re really good at explaining and teaching, so it has been so much fun learning from you. ;)
Usefull guide and entertaining with the attitude :d
The first digital artist that makes sense in the use of brushes. There is a Japanese manga artist who uses a mirror for his drawing. An artist talking art thinking things. Thanks!
Thanks for recommending this video to me Gammatrap. Definitely going to have to try putting this in to practice… once my iPad has charged up again 😂
Hi new sub here! Wow and thanks for the info! Ive been drawing traditionally my whole life and last week invested in an ipad for procreate. Geez im needing editing done to my website right now but im 😮 👀 all into your video hahaha. Thanks again!
Thanks, Brandon! I work on a Cintiq, in WIN10 using Clip Studio. But it really is transferrable!
This was great! I've done traditional art in the past and recently switched to Procreate. Still learning because I'm a noob. When I tried charcoal traditionally it was so messy that it drove me nuts. I might give charcoal a go on Procreate! I love how you used the default brushes and your explanations are great. How do you add colour to charcoal without ruining it? You mentioned something about adjustments.
Thank you
NICEEEE
lovley stuff made m open my ipad asap
This was THE most helpful video I’ve ever seen about digital brush technique and charcoal art! ❤ Do you have any advice on how to render chainmail in this style using Procreate?
Thankyou ✨👊🏼✨
wow, that's style looks like how dark fantasy. i like that
You deserve to get more famous
Tnank you very much
I would love to learn more grayscale becuz of you
Great 👍
When's the coloring tutorial coming? :)
It took me about 20 minutes in to realize he is drunk off his ass hahaha and after realizing I then rewound the video to see when it was that he got swamped during the video but now see he's been lit the entire time ahahahahah fucking sick art tho man and awesome techniques keep up on the awesome shit dude
Not drunk, just Texan
I don't have procreate but I do have photoshop, rebelle 5 and krita. I was wondering if there's any alternate for "old beach brush". It would be really really helpful. Btw this video's great....
What's the best brush to achieve an Old Beach effect in Clip Studio Paint?
Dude.. I’ve always been such a terrible artist. There may be hope after all, Thank you!!
are there any similar brushes for photoshop? id love to do my art like this cause I'm a sucker for texture and the way this looks
I got an iPad for school (cyber security) but have wanted to work on my drawing for a long time. I'm a super ultra beginner and not good at all. I am missing many of the fundamentals but I am looking to start trying to learn. I did one decent charcoal piece and I love the style. I found procreate and it's been really helpful but I feel I'm missing a lot of basics many other people have because they knew how to draw before digital. I would love to learn with digital but haven't found a ton of beginner stuff, is there anything you can recommend for someone starting as a beginner? I would love to work in the charcoal style and if you are familiar with the guild wars 2 art style I would love to work up to that one day. Any suggestions would be awesome. Great video fyi keep up the good work
I had a question that I would really like answered, Your artwork is phenomenal and I could watch this video several times!!
The question is: how often do you use the snapping affect to create straighter lines or rounder curbs??
Whenever I have a line I want straight or curved. Usually when I'm refining the details and already know what I want
Ah, it’s called “pattern recognition”… so helpful 👍🏼
I dont have procreate, what brushes could i get to replace those shown in the video?
Did anyone know which brush could imitate the old beach brush in clip studio? Or, well, all the brushes that are in procreate in that regard? (I was trying to find them and I failed, to be honest)
What is your pressure Curve settings?
Would you say charcoal traditional translates well to online? I seem to have an affinity for it but I HATE the feeling. It bothers my head when working on cavas/etc
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great Video! I downloaded the software on my iPad but I don’t have any of the charcoal brushes you show here. How do I get them?
I don’t have them either and also curious about this!
I'm a year late, just found this video, but why these artistic brushes over the charcoal-specific brushes that are in Procreate? Do you find those to be unsuitable?
have similar brushes for ps?
Hmmm… OldBeach behaves very different in my procreate - default settings, didn’t change anything - it’s just a solid thick line -
I've been trying for hours to recreate the Old Beach brush in Krita after seeing it in this video, and unfortunately I can't seem to get the effect down. It has the exact aesthetic I like in my art, and the only way to do it is with supplementary brushes and very deliberate strokes. It's so frustrating and time-consuming. :( Anyway, just wanted to say I really enjoyed the video and love your art style, keep it up man!
It might be your pressure curve settings, i would go to prefs on actions on procreate and edit pressure curve settings
Have you tried Lane’s charcoal master pack since making this video or are you still sticking to these 4 brushes?
The man, the myth, the legend, giving us tricks of the trade. Thank you so much. This is definitely helpful for someone who admires charcoal, but struggles with it. -VaJean
why your old beach act so different from mine? the inside of yours is light and the outside is black, mine everything just go gray
Brushes dont be working for me right bc I use the pocket version on an iPhone SE and a shitty stylus I got off Amazon that has no pressure control😅
This was awesome! Been a fan for a long while, but just started using Procreate and wanted to change up my styles.
Can you do a video on how you use/add color to your pieces? Would you add it over the charcoal “sculpture”?
Sure thing! And you can either go the "blending mode" approach of overlay and multiply layers, use gradient maps, or just straight up paint colors over it. Usually I either start with a blending mode layer then color pick on a new layer afterward, but it's best to experiment :)
@@Gammatrap you replied! 🤩Thanks so much! I found one of your old videos from last year about using gradients after I sent that lol.
What makes you use Photoshop over Procreate and visa versa? I saw that you sometimes use both for a piece, but wasn’t sure at what stage you chose to use either. I’m assuming I have less control over gradient maps and colors in Procreate.
What software do you use because I can’t find it in any of ur vids lol
This entire tutorial is about procreate (that's the name of the software). Most of my art tutorials use photoshop.
Hello! Are there any brushes like one of Nikko Rull but for psh?
Apparently found something alike in piofoks set
Thanks for all the effort in showing your workflow and techniques.
Some years back I fell in love with Manga Studio/CSP’s brush engine; looking at this makes me (more than ever) happy to use Procreate. I just wish Apple would make an ‘artist edition’ Pencil or screen, with some tooth/bite and friction. I’d drop my Wacom in a second, as screen protectors just don’t cut it (and please don’t mention Paperlike, craaazy dear for what it is🤔)… Thanks again!
Very simple question do u use paperlike or draw directly on glass??? Is this iPad Pro 10.5 with apple pencil 1 ???
I do use paper like and it's actually an iPad air 10.5, and yes pencil 1. ALMOST perfect guesses!
@@Gammatrap superb....me too have the same specifications....except paperlike :(
Are all of your pieces randomized and based off of what you see on the chaos? I know you said you “have something in mid” but how would you go about drawing something specific based off of chaos? I’m sorry if that’s hard to understand but I couldn’t imagine say trying to draw a horse while just drawing squiggles if you don’t see it in the chaos.
Dont know if you'll read this but you def can re visit the angler fish drawing, it actually looks like this sort of nazi, wolfenstein gas mask soldier, its so dope
The more I try to do stuff similar to yours the more I frustrate myself XD I don't think what you do is the style for me XD doesn't mean I can't enjoy it though XD
You mostly use traditional stuff, right? Pencils, paper, etc...?
Usually paper and pencil, but I have been doing a lot more digital pieces recently, or at least working out a style for them XD
You have a tablet right? If you want we can get in a discord call and work on some techniques sometime
Now that sounds amazing, I would love to do that
@@Gammatrap um i was wondering, i looked up procreate and its like an ipad drawing thing yes? well when you use a pc and tablet (if you do) what program do you use? do you always draw exclusively in procreate? i love your art btw, the destiny pieces are my favorites because destiny, hell yeah :D
What’s that glove you’re wearing ??
Anti-foul artist glove
I tried using old beach after this do I need to edit the brush in a certain way to get that effect?
No it should be good as is, but it is the best when only painting with either black or white. Once you add gray or color it starts to "burn" so that's something to look out for
My procreate doesn’t have any of these brushes?
@@kikidoodles.x6727 of course it does unless you got an outdated version
Hi Gamma... I've been a fan of yours for a while... great to see that sexy face! Hope to meet you one day and get a big ol hug! Lol ...Thanks for this vid... except sadly, I watched at work and all I wanna do is draw now. Thanks for some much needed inspiration!
My OldBeach has none of the gritty crumbs look… just a straight solid thick line -
Is it set to your pen pressure? Cause that sounds like procreate thinks it's your finger
@@Gammatrap - thanks much for your reply ! …but so far it seems no matter what settings I use in ‘Dynamics’, ‘Apple pencil’, ‘Properties’… pressure/flow/speed/opacity… … it makes no difference to the stroke behaviour/appearance - ‘Stroke Path’ setting the jitter and spacing larger makes the edge of the stroke a little bit more frazzled, but it still is a solid stroke path… none of the crumbly-dusty-particle- appearance as shown in the above video -:( - I have a new iPad gen9, and updated Procreate - oh well… some day I might still learn how to figure it out.. -:)
Tried it on my iPad, "old Beach" is almost pure black for me, no edges or anything.
Are you using an apple pencil? Sounds like the brushes pressure is set to max
@@Gammatrap yes, Apple Pencil gen 2. I’m trying to figure it out in the brush settings now…
It was the pressure curve in preferences! I had it set to how I usually draw with pencils, otherwise it makes me press too hard on the screen
If only there was a way to change pressure curve just for Old Beach
Thank you so much, your style and tutorials are amazing, I’m so happy I accidentally discovered the channel
Ah very good! My pleasure
1k like was mine
Thx for the video!!!

I'm a good xerocopier, but I didn't know how to create my own works based on my idea. Thanks to your advice, I finally created something of my own, I am so grateful to you. Thank you.
Is gammatrap a tanky???
