I wish I'd found your brushes and your tutorials sooner! I've been so frustrated with some other brushes that I bought that weren't working the way I thought they were going to. Your tutorials are amazingly clear and so helpful, and your brushes and paper texture is AMAZING!

I've used procreate for years and I didn't even know about the feathering. This is going to change my life 😂

Thank you Calvin! I have seen some artist use a special brush with already that kind of edge. Have tried to create it but reached a similar not the burnt edge we have here.

That was SO helpful! The way I learned originally through others was to take a black soft brush around every.single.piece and then change the blend mode, and that is how I have been doing it! This way is exponentially quicker, and has about the same outcome! Thank you!!

@thithanhhuyenbui1455 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the tutorial! I have only one question: what is the difference between multiply and normal setting for layers ? I tried it several times and didn’t see any difference between them 🤔

@Milsukix3 Жыл бұрын

I dont know if you found a reply to this question already but with normal layer what you add usually covers the image under it, whereas if you use multiply you can paint over something without covering it. For example lets say you would like to paint shadow on the eyes of the character but instead of trying to search for a perfect color that would show the color of the eyes with a shadow you just use multiply to cast shadow on eyes that are already colored. Same when you want to put shadows on a tshirt with patterns, adding normal layer would cover the patterns while multiply just adds the shadows keeping the image under the same.

Hi Calvin, whatever I try to do exactly the same things you showed us, my selection doesn’t take only the edges to darken them, but the complete leaves. What’s going wrong?

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! The automatic selection tool is adjustable. So, if it's selecting everything, it may just be set too high. You can adjust the 'threshold' by sliding the pen around - can you give that a try?

@creativebeestudios3192 Жыл бұрын

I loved using the automatic feature but can’t find it now on Procreate. Is there a new video showing how to get the same results?

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 Жыл бұрын

Hi! The automatic selection still works in procreate and not really anything has changed - can you explain what you mean? I would love to help 🙏🙏 Sometimes the selection tool goes haywire if you accidentally turn on the Color Fill setting.

I don’t get it, it doesn’t work the same for me. The auto selection tool selects middle of leaves instead of sides, and there is no red colour, and even if I feather it out to 2-3%, the outline is incredibly faint. What am I doing wrong?

@ceci.choigoya 2 жыл бұрын

This might be a baby question, but how do you set your brush the way it is shown in your video? I want to set my brush, so that when it first touches the pad, it will start small. Mine starts with a big chunk, if you know what I mean.

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Ceci! The brush is supposed to start small -- If it doesn't, there might be a problem. Here are some possible reasons for this problem: 1. Apple Pencil. The brushes will only with with the pencil, not with your finger 2. Old Procreate. You might have a very old version of procreate, possibly version 4. If this is the case, you can message me on etsy and I can send you a compatible version (or you can update your procreate) 3. Pressure curve. Can you try to reset the pressure curve setting in procreate? It may have a custom setting You can always message me on etsy and we can work together to make the brushes work correctly :]

@PPWONG_021 3 жыл бұрын

maybe its because procreate updated, but now, instead of the hue, saturation, and brightness changing the edge- it changes the “unfeathered area” am i doing something wrong? or is there no way to achieve this effect now

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! The effect is still working fine :) all they added is the option to select either Layer or Pencil. You should only select Layer, then you can follow the video like normally :)

@ellenlevine5738 3 жыл бұрын

Your brushes are amazing but they don't seem to like me. Nothing has a real shape to it. I tried checking in preference to be sure the pressure curve was set and it was correct. I also tried your cute goldfish example but my shapes don't have any shape. They are just vague and wiggly which looks kinda cool but not if I want to draw a leaf or a goldfish. The other problem I am having is with feathering a selection. In this tutorial I drew the random shape and even just 1 or 2 percent fills up most of the canvas. Any suggestions?

@calvinatdrifterstudio8438 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Ellen! The selection issue is happening because you have 'color fill' enabled. It's easy to do it by accident - it's an option right next to 'feather' The brush issues sounds like you might not be using an apple pencil. If you are, you can check the version of Procreate you have because older versions from last year can have a similar problem. You can always message me on Etsy and we can work together and resolve it :)
