Have you tried the tutorial? If so, drop a link to your artwork here.

This was much easier to follow compared to other videos I've seen. The fact that you explained why you chose certain modes was especially helpful. You've earned a new subscriber!

Im graffiti artist for 20 years and i find your youtube channel very useful for me, because i just started with procreate.

LOVE IT!! You explained it so well

this is so great! I've been using another method to create an outline, but yours is more efficient and creates better results! Cheers

the overlay highlights kick up a notch. nice tip.

Awesome tutorial! Thanks Ian!

I like the tip about using either one of your brushes or a monoline brush for smoothing the edges when we zoom in. I'll be sure to do that, thanks x

The simplicity is great!! Thank you

Nice work Ian! Thanks for sharing

Thanks Ian! You make it simple and wow! 🤯

Thank you for such an awesome tutorial.

Thank you! Simple and quick tutorial but really useful 👏

This is the best video about this technique. Thank you for taking the time to make it and publish it.

Okkkkk SO HELPFUL! I love this! ❤

Ian, that was super easy to follow! Thanks a ton. Just goofing off with Procreate, and this was amazing!! THANK YOU! Super silly (rookie) question. I followed right along and it worked brilliantly, with the exception of one small part at the end. When you created the last layer, to add a some white accents (with overlay selected), I can't seem to get mine white. Regardless of what color I choose, it just makes a lighter color of the red (of the letter) I am attempting to put the highlights in. I know this is pretty difficult to troubleshoot just based off that, but if it's something wicked obvious, I would love to know what I missed. :) Thanks so much. This tutorial was great!

Thank you! FINALLY what I’ve been looking for!

Nicely presented! 👏🏼 Motion blur can be handy for creating extrusions if you have many corners to connect.

Great video! Interestingly I was trying to find instructions for this only the other night? Now I can finish my piece. Thank you 🙏🏼

Beautiful!!! Thank you!! 👍👏🌟

Awww it was fun and well explained.... just as beginner sometimes by selecting the features it was a bit too fast. So cool, please more more of these.

Just getting into art on iPad, thank u so much!

Thanks so much for sharing this video! Can’t wait to try it :)

Great tutorial! Thanks for uploading.

Awesome! Thank you for this! You explained it so simply, definitely going to give it a try.

This is amazing, thanks!

Thank you bro, much love

Thank you !! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I’m overwhelmed

i tried and this is super cool and perfect !!!!

Super handy!

Thanks for this. I was looking for a way to do outlining. I’ve done tones of lettering with shadows but I couldn’t outline. One Q: why do you need to set your top layer for the highlights on “overlay?” Won’t working on a top layer set on “normal” do the same thing?

it work ...thankyou

...thank you. .a big help

This method is much better.. Thanks !

Super helpful!

Muchas gracias 😊

Nice bro. Linework

Lol... this how we did outlines and drops in photoshop back the 90s. Yes I’m old.

Been doing this several times. I know I'm on the right layer and all. Why all of a sudden the color fill part after s tool fills the whole page?

Thanks! 🤌🏼✨

Thank you so much❤

Great, thank you!

Cool! I've already tried it! The letters for automatic selection must be thick, I did not succeed with thin ones.

this guy is a genius

Excellent

This channel is going BIG, keep it up!

Great video

thank you. im newbie

Does the motion blur method you previously used for 3D letters and shadows no longer work?

Super helpful! Do you think maybe in the future you can provide the approximate sizes of the brushes and level of a opacity you use when you select different brushes? I noticed in a lot of procreate tutorials, artist don’t usually show that and then I struggle to find the right size to match what I’m trying to do match the artist’s example. Thank you!

is the lettering guide included on the brush set?

Wow! 🙌 🙏

Thanks for explanation. I bought 2 lettering courses from Domestika and I did not understand too much . There was spanish iPads and faded translate. Thanks a lot . Please upload your courses on this site.

This was the most helpful video!! Holy shit!

This is really awesome..... Can you accomplish this in Procreate Pocket?

Hey Ian, by any chance have you found a way to do this with sharp edges? I noticed this seems to create very rounded outlines.

Great tips. Glad to see more videos from you.

Nice

Great

HellÕ 👋🏼 Thank You for taking the time to upload this video. Can You also please tell me how to download this freestyler pack or if I can find it on my procreate by default? Where can I get this riptide stroke ?

Trying to play around with my ipad and lettering, thank you for this tutorial. I tried it, and for whatever reason, after the blur step, when I tried to select inside the letter and draw out to fill the outline, it kinda just doesn’t work and highlights unevenly. Any pointers? Thank you!

does this only work if I draw the text and not type the text?

What about outlining TEXT?

is it the 12.9?

hi! can you do an updated version? it looks like procreate might have changed the way the selection tool is because nothing happens when I click on the words for the outline

What if you want the outline to be different colors or an image? I can’t figure out how to do this and outline text/font

Hi there I just got procreate for some reason mine doesn’t give me the option for alpha lock or fill layer is their another way todo it ?

How come my iPad in procreate doesn’t have alpha lock and color fill and when I hit Gaussian blue it doesn’t give me the layer option??? Please help?

Cool, Create another lettering tutorial please...

When i do this my whole test becomes weirdly shaped and however i turn up or down the threshold it doesnt change

Great video of course! What program are are you using? I want to try this

When I do that it fills everything BUT the outline with color. What am I doing wrong?

ian... do you sell this brush pack? what the name ... i want to buy ..

As soon as I move the threshold at all the whole background turns blue. Then if I try to move it to the left only parts right next to the letters become un-blue. Hmmm

I need help! I followed your outline steps to a tea and it worked many many times, but now I am trying to do the exact same thing and it will not outline. Could I have messed with the settings some how and changed something in the fill color tab? Everything goes good until I get to the very end and have to fill color.

This didn't work for me, what version f procreate was used?

Every time I do the selection tool it creates a border inside my lettering and when adjust the threshold it selects everything except my Gaussian blur. Any ideas why. Tried many times still the same.

I found this process completely exasperating, and it didn't work at all for me. Not even a little bit. Thank you for making the video.

Will your brushes work on procreate pocket?

Thank you 🙏🔥🔥🔥 wish you could see what I made

Do you have a screen protector on your iPad?

What am i doing wrong . It’s not doing the blur

When I try the select part it doesn't work

When I tap the letters it turned white the first time, but never again. Didn’t work for me

Why when I have to tap I can not do that 🥺

I want freestyle brush but i have no money please tell me how to get it for free

When I switch to automatic and click my lettering it turns the whole canvas one color

'Fire' changes into 'fine' atlast

When I tap the lettering to make it white it just makes the entire background black

im working with illustrator for years but i have to say procreate is alot betyter to do these kind of typos...

Why doesn’t it work for me 😭😭

Helpppp whenever I click the letters after I click the automatic, the whole screen turns blue. I don't understand what is happening. I repeated the video several times

After I clicked the selection tool and set it to automatic, when I tapped my letters they didn’t turn white. What should I do

Followed steps 5 times still haven’t gotten a result event close to yours

Doesn’t work for me?

I don’t think this works anymore. 😭 version 5.2.6

Better video than most but still didn't work as you explained for me, the quest continues

This worked for freehand letters but using fonts bruh cmon… nothing? Really?

Didn’t work for me. The outline was bubbly & ugly.
