This was soooo helpful. So many beginner tutorials will use multiply and overlay layers without ever explaining what they actually do. Thank your clear explanations with excellent examples. It's a fantastic piece too!
Excellent. Yours is the first video about blending modes which actually shows for what purpose the modes can be used. Most other videos are just demonstations where the author randomly clicks through the blending layer modes and hope that that will produce a 'tutorial'.
Thank you so much for all of your super informative and well explained videos. And for not being greedy wanting to sell something, just sharing art and knowledge with the world and creating opportunities for people. My brother bought me an iPad Pro probably over a year ago now to get into digital art and make use of my capabilities. And I've tried at different times, drawing as well as trying to learn, and never quite felt able to really be able to do what I want until finding your videos. Now it's time to find out where I can take this!
great video! It helped me a lot to understand layer modes better. It would be nice if you do explain the other layer modes, which you had skipped. More tips how to make layer modes more useful could also be great.
Hi, a question about layer. All of suddent, one layer is totally dark after I unintentionally touched something,my work is totally lost. Do you have any ideq if this could be restored? Thanks!
Can someone help me? When I change the blend mode from Normal to anything else it doesn’t work. Nothing appears on the canvas, I can only see the “paint” on the layer miniature. How do I fix this?
You answered questions that I had on previous videos here. So I'm sorry I bothered you with those. I've been using Multiply like it was the only layer option for years.:(
Thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial video. I’m new to iPad Pro my self, I’ve only had it for 3 months now and I love digital art but didn’t know it can do these things. I was wondering if you can do a video of layers and how to cut image and add to another background
You would be the first that I know of to actually make a painting tutorial for Gumroad (but, I haven't really been looking around that much in RU-vid). And what better painting can that be but none other than Indiana Jones. This is an awesome painting and I'm sure lots of us folks with Procreate would benefit from it. Give it a thought?
I was wondering for shading, how do you decide which color to add with the gray? Is it always grey mixed with blue and set to multiply? Or can it be gray mixed with any color? Thanks
OhMyBooda don't think of your shadows as grey. Think of them as a darker cooler color of the object your adding shadow to. You don't always have to use multiply, it just simplifies things.
Blend modes dont look like this anymore in version 5.2.2 , I really like how they grouped them by effect. Now they are all over the place. Good tutorial anyways
There's any way that I can NOT blend at all the layers? I just downloaded the app, and I'm trying to draw. But it's been very hard, because, even when a layer it's above other, they blend.
i commend you on your knowledge of layers in procreate, but the way you try to explain it to us is quite confusing.... instead of cramming it all into one video, losing us in the process, as your switching back and forth, can you simplify what you're trying to teach us by making tutorials that cover the different aspects of layers one video at a time? it would be so appreciated. by the way, you're a good artist!
