Here's how to paint a cute watercolor town illustration sort of in the style of Lizzy Stewart and Más tamaños. The style is very easy to paint in Procreate and it's great for children's book illustration.
🌻 STUFF I USED FOR THIS VIDEO 🌻
I used a combination of brushes and a paper texture for this project:
- Little pine/gloaming brush (in the Drawing tab/Procreate Brush Library)
-Fineliner Pen/Hard edge round (Amazing watercolor for procreate kit, link below)
-Forester paper texture (this is the grainy/fine paper effect)
The watercolor brushes and the paper texture are products I sell on my etsy store to support the channel. These tools help you create organic looking watercolor-textures in Procreate.
- Amazing watercolor for Procreate Kit (brushes):
drifterstudio.etsy.com/listin...
- Forester Paper texture (the paper effect, optional, but it's very cool):
drifterstudio.etsy.com/listin...
(The watercolor kit comes with a very clear KZfaq tutorial and you can also contact me directly if you need anything or if you want a refund. I'm extremely active on etsy and I'd love to chat with you)
If you cannot afford the brushes/texture, please message me on my Etsy store in the links above and I can help you. I love to teach art and help traditional artists try out digital painting. The income from the Etsy store helps this project be financially sustainable. I really try to use the best hardware and software I can afford and make the videos as good as I possibly can.
The background music is called 'Yestalgia' and I have a license from Artlist 🙏

My mother taught me to paint with watercolors on paper when I was a child. And now I want to draw digitally. I came across your videos, thanks for sharing the tutorials!

I love landscape scenes, like the one last month. The artist is using one of my favorite paper textures, FORESTER paper. I like this because of its natural texture and cool effect while I’m painting. I also like his sets of brush, very easy to use. I couldn’t wait to paint this landscape but I have to finish the Forest Scenes first.

you are so welcome 🤩 I don't know if I mentioned it in the video, but it looks really nice of you make all the houses just shades of one color (like blue or something). It's kind of like a nice contrast between simple colors and the complex and detailed houses

Very educational video. Thank you!! Small tip: I would copy the houses first and then add the smoke. Now the smoke from the top layer is blowing to the right and the bottom layer to the left, that is not right. Haha. :)

I paint with procreate, but I never use the tools, I just paint like I do with real paint😅. Thank you I learned a lot❤

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 9 ай бұрын

I think it's ok to take it slowly, traditional painting has a feeling of it's own even if you do it in Procreate. Over time you can incorporate some of the extra tools in procreate but I think it's best to do what feels right for you ☺️

Thank you so much for the tutorial! And i'd really appreciate it if you could show us the exact colors used in the videos. there are color differences between devices and sometimes i can get really confused.

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 9 ай бұрын

Thank you so much ☺️ Sometimes I'm not sure how to implement a color pallet for complicated video, do you think it would be ok if it was unlabeled? just like a list of pretty much all the colors I used, or do you think it would be useful if I put the exact color number somewhere on the screen while I was painting?

@user-pm4ln2so5v 9 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for replying! Actually I think it would be very helpful that you just quickly switch to the Value interface when a color is selected. So you don't have to make a special list and it won't add much to your editing work. After all, you have made all the great tutorials for us and I'm so grateful!@@calvinatdrifterstudio8438

Very nice work and many thanks for video! At the past i bought this brush set but i could not get this type painting result on normal procerate paper. Should i buy also this paper effect to get this brush painting result? Or am i making mistake on something ? 😅

Thank you so much! The brush kit comes with a paper - I can send you the exact one from this video and we can make sure everything is working perfectly. Just message me one Etsy and we can chat easily there and I can attach files. I'm so grateful for your support🙏

Hello! I love your videos so much, I've watched all of them. May I know what screen protector you are using? Thanks so much.

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 9 ай бұрын

Thank you so much 😁I have used a lot of different screen protectors and I have noticed a few things. If you are an expert at installing screen protectors, the thin plastic ones are ok. The paperlike screen protector is what I have now and Im not a huge fan but it works pretty well. It looks like the paperlike will wear out very quickly because I already can see lines from my pencil scratching into it. The best screen protector I have ever used are the cheap matte-glass ones. These are very thick and very easy to install. They also never EVER wear out and basically you can use it forever as long as you don't drop a quarts crystal on it (oops). When they crack, they really crack and you will need to change it. The other bad thing about the matte glass is the texture on them is kinda crispy and frosted, but it's not usually super consistent. You can see the matte effect is uneven and for some people this is very annoying. I personally don't really notice it when I'm painting but it shows up in the video when I film my iPad.

I have a question, Calvin. Once im ready to print, how do i make sure the paper texture only shows on the design and not on the white background. 😊

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 9 ай бұрын

hi☺️ You can turn off that effect - if you open the paper texture group, there is a layer at the top called 'on/off paper background'. This controls the paper effect in the white areas
