1. Introduction: Hello everyone. I'm Uni. And into this class we'll draw a cute magical castle landscape. This class doesn't require any prior experience
or fancy tools. We'll start from
scratch and we'll be using simple techniques
throughout the process. Everything you'll see will
be happening in procreate. However, if you have added software or want to try
traditional materials, you're are welcome to join. If you're ready to start, let's jump right into it.
2. Basic Scheme: Let's start today's
class by deciding what kind of canvas we
are going to be using. You can see it is a very simple standard square canvas
that you can find. In procreate, both
pixel width and pixel hide are set at 2048 pixels. If you would like to use
any other dimensions for your canvas, just go for it. As for DPI, we are using 300. And as for the color profile, we are setting it as SRGB
with this low number. When it's all done, let
just hit done and it will be redirected
to our new canvas. And now we will need
to decide what kind of colors we are going to be using throughout the whole class. You can go to the project
and res up and you can download all the
materials when needed it. Let's just go straight to our color palettes and let's
check out what we have here. Here we have two options of
how we can use our colors, the compact and the cards. We will go to the
cards because cards have the color names
and it will be easier for us to navigate through that while we are still here
into our color palettes. Let's select the
first color that we are going to be using
for our scheme. It will be our dark purple.
Let's just tap on it. Let's select it, and let's just go and pick up some brush. We are going to
our brush library. We are going to the
sketching folder. And you can pick any brush
from here that you like. You can go and try
some of them out. And when you decide
on the brush, let's just go back to our canvas and let's start
creating our scheme. The first thing that
we will need to do is to create a perfectly
round circle. Don't worry, it is very easy. Let's just go to our canvas
and just with one line, without lifting up
our apple pencil, we will create a ship like that. At the end of the line, we
will hold our apple pencil, and you will see that you snap
your ship to a better one. But now it's looking more like an ellipse and we would need to have a perfectly round circle. Let's just hold one
of our fingers on the screen without lifting
up our apple pencil. Now you can see that it is
a perfectly round circle, and that's exactly what we need. Let's just make it a little bit bigger so it is the
size like that. And then we'll lift up everything that we are
holding right now. Now we will need
to make sure that our shape is right in the
middle of our canvas. Let's just go to the air
key on the top left, which is our transform tool. We will tap on it and we will go to the bottom to use
uniform methods. Also, we will need to go to
snapping, we will tap on it. And here into this little menu, we will turn on snapping two. Now when we have this set, we will need to
go to our canvas. We will need to hold
our apple pencil at some blank space. And what we need to see
is these two lines, one vertical and one horizontal. When you see them,
you know that you are right in the
center of your canvas. Now when you see
these two lines, let's just go and
desalect everything by hitting our air
key one more time. When we did it, we
will need to go to our layers and we will
create one more layer. It will be easier
for us to create a new layer for this element. And then we will
merge all the layers that we will use for
our skin together. Let's just tap on our plus icon. Let's create a new layer, and then we'll get
back to our canvas. We will need to create a
vertically aligned line that will go through the
whole shape of our circle. Let's just go above our shape, and we will create a line going down at the end of the line, we will hold our apple pencil, and you can see that we can
go and adjust the ingo. Let's just try to make
it very straight. When you are done, we will go again to our key
on the top left. And we will go and put this
line right in the center. Let's just go hold
our apple pencil at some blank space and we will just move the line until we see these two orange lines. When you have them, we
will go and deselect everything by hitting our
arrow key one more time. Now let's just get back
to our list and we will create one more
layer onto this layer, we will need to go and
create a triangle that will be the size of
our main element. Let's just go and again, with one line, we will
create our sheep. At the end of the line, we
will hold our apple pencil. And then we will go
over the Soap to this option that just
popped up for me, it's polyline for you. It might be something
different if you have the option triangle
here when you are into the ten mode selected. If you don't have it, you can
work with any other option. We will just need to
go to the little nodes that we have here and we
will need to adjust them. What we need to do is to
make an even triangle. We will go to the
nose and we will try to make the shape
even on both sides. Let's go to the right side and
we will move the snow that we have on the bottom right
more toward the right side. When you have the distance from the sides even on both sides. Let's just go to
the snow that we have on the bottom middle part. And we will drag it
a little bit down so we will touch our ellipse. Now when you have
something like that, let's just deselect everything
by tapping on our screen. When we are done, we will
need to do one more thing. We are going back to
our layers and we are creating one more
layer onto this layer. We will get back to
our canvas and we will go to this line that
we have in the middle. We will need to go to it and we will need to
make two marks down that will divide our ship
into three equal parts. Let's just go and do it by eye just creating two
little markdowns. When you have them, we
will need to go and create the horizontal lines that will go through this little markdown. Firstly, let's just go to
the bottom and we will create the line going
through the whole shape. At the end of the line, we will hold it and we will
adjust the angle. By moving the line, we will
try to make it very straight. If you need to adjust the
placement on this line, please go to the edited
mode or the top. When you are done
with the first line, let's just tap on our screen to get away from
our edited mode. And let's do the same
thing one more time. We will go to this
little markdown that we have on the top. Through it, we will create
another horizontal line. Hold it at the end, and then adjust the
angle if you need to. If you want to move
this line more toward the top or
toward the bottom, you just need to
go over the top to the edited modes and adjust
the placement of the element. Try to make the parts
even when you are done, let's just tap on the screen to get away from our edited modes. Now our scheme is done, but let's just get
back to our lis and let's combine all these
four layers together. What we need to do is to put one of our fingers on the top layer and the second finger on the bottom one and
make a pinch movement. Now let's just go and rename
this layer as scheme. To do so, we will need to tap on the layer and choose rename. And also we will go and change the capacity
level of this layer. When we're changing capacity, we are making our objects on this layer a little bit
more transparent to do. So we will go to our
icon on the layer and you can see that we have
the option opacity here. We can grab the slider
and move it toward the left side until we still can see what's happening
onto this layer. But when it's not that bright, find the capacity
that works for you. And when you are done,
we will tap on our layer with the scheme one more
time to close this window. Now we are done with our scheme. Let's just move on
to the next part, where we are going to be
creating the first skitch.
3. Layout: This little part. Let's
just go and very boldly, find out where we want to
put some of our ships. What we need to do, firstly, is to go to our lies and
create one more Lia. Let's just tap on the plus icon. And if you want, you can go and rename this lie as scheme two. Now we will start positioning our elements and we'll
be using simple ships. Firstly, we will go and
create a very wobbly ship on the bottom that will represent
some river or some leak. Firstly, let's just go to this line that we
have in the middle. And we will step a little
bit from the side of it. We will go and start
creating the shape. Going in that way, you can
play runs with the ship, you can find what works for you. All that you need to do is
to create some wobbly shape. When you have it, we will start by going to our
triangular shape, to the side of it, and we will start positioning
some triangles. Firstly, let's just
go over our left and we will go straight to
this line that we have here. We will go and very easily start creating the
shapes like that. When you have the first one, we will go toward the top part. We will go right on
this line and we will start positioning
some of other objects. You can go and play around with the size of these elements. All that we need to do is to put three more triangles
When you have it, let's just go toward
our right part. And let's do something
similar here too. Firstly, we'll go to
this place that we have on the bottom right here. Let's just put another triangle. When we have it, we will go
more toward the right part from it and we will just go and create another
triangle here. These parts will be
representing our trees. And if you want to play
around with the composition, you are welcome to
go and do that. All that we need
to do is to figure out all of our placements
of the elements. Right Now, let's just go and add a few more elements
of our trees. We will go to this blink
space that we have on our right and we will
put one more triangle. All that we are doing
right now is position our elements and we are
filling up the blink ******. When we have it, we will go to the middle part and we'll
go to the top of it. We will go to the third
that we have over the top. And into this little part, we are going to be
creating our castle. Firstly, let's just go to
this line that we have in the middle and we will
create a little rectangle. You can do it manually, or you can go and do it with one line and hold it at the end. When you have it, you can go to the Ting mode and position
it to your liking. For example, let's just put
it not toward the center, but we will move it more
toward one of the sides. When you have it, we
will tap on the screen and we will get away
from our editing mode. On the top of this rectangle, we will go and create
another triangle that will represent the roof. When you have it, we will move toward the left side and we will create another little
shape here for this element. Let's just go with
half of the ellipse. We will just go there,
and just with one line, we will create a
shape like that. We will hold it at the end, and if we want to adjust it, we will go over the top
to our editing mode. Let's just make it a
little bit smaller and let's position it more
toward the left side. When you are done,
let's just tap on the screen to get away
from our editing modes. Now let's just go and
add a few more details. Firstly, let's just go
toward our right part, and let's create another
triangle here near our castle. You are welcome to position your elements in a
way that you like. Don't recreate everything the way that you see
it on your screen. It's your time to play when
you have these elements, let's just go and create
a few more of them. For example, let's just go
to this blank space that we have between our water
elements and our castle. And let's create two lines that later on we will turn
into the stairs. Let's create
something like that. We'll create one line
going diagonal like that and another line going in
that way when we have it. If you want to add
more details onto this little scheme, you
can go and do that. For example, let's just go to the sides on the top
part and we will create some elements that
later on we will turn into the
clouds, for example. Going over our right
part, firstly, go into this blank space that
we have between our trees. We will create a line
going in that way. When you have it, you
can leave it as it is. Or if you want, you can go and create the shape
of the cloud here. When you have it on one side, let's move on to
the opposite one. And let's do something
similar here. You can repeat the same
line going on the bottom. Then if you want, you can go
and turn it into a cloud. You can repeat the same shape or play around and find
something different. The same way you
can go over one of the sides on the top and add an element that
later on you will turn inside the
moon, for example. Let just go over our right part and let's create a
little shape like that. We will go with a simple
shape of the circle. We will hold our apple pencil
at the end of the line. And also we will hold
one of our fingers there too, when you have it. We then will go over
the top part and we will create another
little circle there. In that way, we will
cut this piece that we have on the top
one more time. Hold your apple pencil
at the end of the line. Hold one of your fingers on
the screen, just the size. When you are done,
let us go grab and erase our tool and erase this
part that we don't need. Now when we have
something like that, let's just go to this
middle part where we have no objects and we will go
and create some bushes. What we are going to
be doing is just going right between our
little trees and we will create the lines
going in that way you can play around and find
something that works for you. And later on we will work more on that and we will
create better shapes. For now, let's just go and create a few lines
going in that way. In that way we will fill our blank pieces When you are satisfied
with your elements, let's one more time
go to our layers. We'll go to our layer
with scheme two. And again, we will go and change the capacity
on this layer. Let's just tap on our icon. And let's just drag our little slider
toward the left side, find the opacity level
that works for you. Now you can notice that
our scheme that was before and our scheme that we just created are the same color. We can just go and make it a little bit different later on, It will be easier for us to
create our actual sketch. Let's just go to
the magic one tool that you can find
on the top left. It is the second icon. We will tap on it and we
will go to hue saturation. And brightness. Here we can see on the bottom we
have our sliders. We will go to the hue slider. We will grab it and we
will find the color that will be a little bit different from what
we have on our. First, let's find something
that will be contrast. If you need to go to the
saturation or to the brightness, go and adjust them, Just find something
that will be contrast. When you are done one more time, we will tap on our magic one
tool to deselect everything. Now we are ready to move
on to our next part where we identificating
our actual skitch.
4. Sketch: Now when we know where we
need to put our objects, let's just go to our
list and we will create one more layer that
will rename as Sketch. When we have a new layer, we are going to our color
palettes and we will select this very contrast
color with the name Pink. We will use the same
brush and we will go to our little scheme and we will try to define our
objects even more. Firstly, let's just go
and create our trees. We will go to the left element that we have on the bottom. What we're going to be
doing is just going along these lines that we
have for our triangle, but we will be creating
different shapes. Let's just go and create little bumps with the
curves. Something like that. You can play around with the
position of these elements. You can play around
with the curvature, with everything that you
want to play around with. You just need to
create little bumps that will look like the tree. You can make it very
cartoony or you can make it a little bit more
to the real life world. When you have
something like that, If you need to erase some parts, grab an eraser tool
and erase them. And then we will go to the opposite side and we will create a few more curves that will
represent our branches. Let's just go and
create something similar to what we
have on our right. You don't need to make the
sides even on both sides, so we don't have
it in real nature. If you need to erase some parts, if you need to
adjust some parts, go grab an eraser two
and adjust the elements. When you are done
with the first tree, let's just go over the rest of them and let's create
something similar here. You can again go and create different shapes,
different sizes. If you want, you can go and create the trunks of the trees. It's all up to you.
Let's just go over our left side and let's
create our trees here. When we have our
trees on the left, let's move on to the right. And let's do something
similar here. Firstly, let's just go to
one of these triangles, and let's turn it into a tree. Let's just go to the
part that we have, more toward the center. Again, the same way as before, just creating some lines that
will represent the tree. When you are done, let's turn these two remaining triangles
into the trees too. Now let's just go inside these shapes that we have
created for our trees. And let's add some
additional elements there. We'll need to make sure that they look just like the trees. We will just need to go and add some little parts inside that will represent
the branches. We can go very easily just with lines like that here and there. Just add a few elements. When you are done, let's just
work on our water elements. Let's just go and recreate
what we have here, but we also will go over our right part and we will
add a bit of land here. Firstly, let's just go
over the left and we will try to recreate what
we have on our scheme. When we've reached our
tree on the right, we will go underneath it and we will create a
little element like that. We are creating some
kind of land here. When we have it, we will go to the bottom and we will create
another piece of land here. Again, if you want, you can go and merge these two
elements together. So you can just go and overlap it and create another
element like that. Just a wobbly sheep when you are done and if you need to
adjust some elements, if you need to erase
some overlapping parts, go grab and erase tool and erase the parts
that you don't need. Now we will need to add some additional elements
to our land parts. For example, let's just go and create a few
bumps like that. And into these
bumps we can go and create some leaves, for example. Let's just go right in the middle part and we will create a little stem like that. And then we'll go to the sides and we will create a few leaves. If you want, you can create
some different shapes. But when you are ready with
these little elements, let's just go to the
sides of our land parts. And we will add a few lines that will represent the grass. So we're just going there and creating the lines
going in that way. The same thing we will
do onto our left. This part that we have on the bottom is our
land element two. Let's just go there
and we will create some lines that will
represent the graphs. Let's just go over the H and we will create a few
elements in that way. Now let's just go and
add these little bushes. Firstly, let's just
go to our layers, and let's create one more layer. We are going to be creating
the overlapping parts, so it will be easier
for us to get back to the previous layer and erase the parts that we don't need. Now let's just go
over our left part. And we will be
starting by creating some bumps that will
represent the bushes. What we're doing is going there and creating
something like that. If you want to pick
up some antros brush, you are welcome to go
and do that very boldly. Just go there and create some
pattern with these bumps. Now, when we have
something like that, let's just get back to our lies. We will go to our
Lia with this sage. We will grab our eraser
tool and we will go to the spars that we have
inside these little bushes, and we will erase them. When we are ready,
we can get back to our Lia where we
have our bushes, and we can merge it with our Lia before if
you want to change the color to make it similar to what you have on
your actual scag. You can do it in that way. You can just tap on this
layer and select alpha log. When you have the
alpha log turned on, you can end the details only on the existing areas that
you have onto this layer. So you won't be aiding
the additional elements. You will be recoloring the
lines that you have here. Only what we need to do
right now is to get back to our brush library and select some brush that will help
us to recolor these lines. For example, we can go into the inking folder or
into the calligraphy. And if you're going
into the calligraphy, let's select monoline brush. We will go then back
to our color palettes. And we will select the
same color that we're using for our actual
skitch When we did it, we will go and increase
the size of our brush, and we'll go over these lines that we have for our bushes, and that's easy, you
can recover the lines. Now, one more time, let's just get back
to our brush library. We will go to the
sketching folder. We'll select the similar brush
that we were using before. When you are done,
we will get back to our layers and we'll merge
these two layers together. What we need to do is to go
to our layer on the top, tap on it, and
select Merge down. Now let's just get back and let's continue
adding our details. Now let's just go to
this part that we have on our left and we
will add a little cave Here we are stepping a little bit from our
water elements and we are creating a shape like that you can play runs with the
size on this element. And when you have it, we
will step a little bit from this line and we will create the same line going on the top. When we have
something like that, we can go inside the shape
and we can shade it. Later on we will know
what we are doing. Now when we have
something like that, let's just go to the
lines that we have in the middle and we will
turn them into the stairs. What we need to do is
to go to the lines, and firstly, we are going
to the line on the bottom. Let's just go and recreate
this line when we have it. We will step a bit from it to the right and we will create
a parallel line there. Let's just go and repeat it. You can hold your line at
the end to make it straight. If you need to adjust the angle, just move it from side to
side when you have it. Let's just go to our eras er, two and we will
erase these lines that we don't need
in the middle. When we have these two lines, we will just go between
them and we will start aiding the horizontal
lines like that. For now, we are
creating just a scag. Later on we will make it
a little bit cleaner. Don't worry if you are not very straight
with these lines. Now, when we have this
part of our letter, let's just go over the top and
we will do the same thing. Here we are firstly going over the line that
we have on our left. From it, we are just creating a line going up in that way. If you want, you can
adjust the angle on this element. You are done. We are going to
the parallel line that we have on the right. And from it we are creating another parallel line
that is going up. When we have it, we are going to create these
horizontal lines. Again, if you have the parts
that you need to erase, firstly go and erase that. Also on the top, we can, we can add
the actual steps. For example, let's just
go to one of the sides, for example, the left one. And we will go and create
the lines in that way. We are just connecting our steps with the lines
that are straight. Again, if your lines are not too straight right
now, don't worry. We will fix it later on. Now let's just go over the top and we will add two
lines like that. When we have it, we will
go to the bottom of our stairs and we will add
a bit of thickness there. We will go to the
intersection right here. From this intersection
we will go down with a little
shape like that. When you have it, we will
grab our eraser tool and we will erase these lines
on the bushes that we have. Now let's just move on to the top and let's
create our castle. Firstly, let's just go to the straight vertical
lines that we have here. And we will recreate that if you want to make it
a little bit thinner, you are welcome to
go and do that. Now we are creating these
lines and then we'll go to the top and we will
start creating our roof. For the roof, let's just go
with the curves like that. We are going to the
triangle that we have here, but we are creating
the lines in that way. When you have it
on the first side, do the same on the
opposite side, you can play around with the
curvature on these lines. It's all up to you when
you have this element. Let's just go to the
bottom of it and let's connect these two lines
with another curve. This curve will look like that. As always, you can hold
your apple pencil at the end of the line to
adjust the curvature. Also, you can go over the top to the editing mode to
adjust it even more. Let's just end up with
something like that. And when you are
done, we will go away from our editing
mode by tapping on our screen now and
start adding some details. For example, let's just go right underneath this line that
we have just created. And we will create
a parallel line going on the bottom
when you have it. We will just go and create a little element on the sides to connect
it with our roof. We will grab our
eraser tool and we will erase all the lines
that we don't need. Now we will go to the top of our roof and we
will create a line going up in that way we are creating some pol
onto this pool. We will go and create
a little flag, go to one of the
sides and create a shape like that if you want to add some additional
elements or if you want to play runs
with the details, you are welcome to do it. When you have these elements, let's just go to our tower. Let's create some
additional elements here. For example, let's just go
and create some windows. We will go to the
top part and we will create a shape
like that if you want to go inside
of it and if you want to create these
window elements, you are welcome to
go and do that. Now let's just go to this
part that we have on the left and let's create another shape that we will turn
into our castle. Let's just go to the top part
and we will recreate it. We will create a curve
going in that way. When we have it, we will go
down with the straight lines. Let's create
something like that. When you have it, let's just
grab the razor tool and let's erase this line that
we have from our tower. Now when we have this element, we will go over the top of
it and we will add the roof. What we need to do is to
create something in that way. Let's just tap a
bit from this line and let's create the
lines in that way. We are creating something
similar to what we have for our roof of this tower, but our top is not that pointy. When you have it,
we will go grab our eraser tool and we will erase all of these
overlapping parts. When you have it, again, we will go down with
the straight lines. Now let just go to the
curve that we have on the top and we will
add some thickness to it. So what we need to
do is to just go a little bit higher and
repeat the same line. Now grab the eraser tool and erase the lines
that you don't need. Remember that you can always go and create your own designs. Now let's connect this
part with our main shape. So we will just go
to the sides and we will create the
lines in that way. We will do it on both sides. Now when we're down on the top, let's just go to this object
that we have in the middle. We will add some
details here too. Firstly, let's just
go to the top of it and we will
create another line. In that way, we are just repeating the line that
we have on the top, but we are making it in sides. When we have it, we are going to the sites and we are creating
a little shapes like that. And then we will
go down and create another line that is parallel to the line
that we already have. We will do the same
on the opposite side. When you are done, we
will go to the middle on this element and we will create a line going down in that way. Now when we have the shape, let's just go to the
top element and we will go and end the
lines going in that way. When we are done, we
will go inside of our elements and we will add the lines that will later
represent our bricks. Let's just go firstly
and start creating the lines going in
a horizontal axis. Then we will create a few lines
going on a vertical axis. We will do something similar
to the roof that we have on the right and to the
whole body of our tower. For the tower, we
will need to go and recreate the lines that we
have right here on the top. It is not just a
straight building, but it is some circular. What we need to do is to create a couple of our little
curves like that. Again, if you want,
you can go and add a few lines that
will be vertical. As for the roof, we will go and create some
lines like that. Now what we need to do is to recreate the shape that
we have for our tree. And also we will need
to add our clouds. Firstly, let's just go to this little triangle
that we have here, and let's turn it into a tree, for example, let's just go
there and let's create trunks. We will create two
lines like that, and also we will
create a double track. Let's just go and create
one more element like that. When you have it, we will go
to the top of our triangle and we will turn it into the tree the same way
as we did before. Play runs with the shape. If you need to adjust something, grab the eraser tool and erase the parts
that you don't need. Now let's just go
back to our brush and let just go and recreate
our little clouds. Firstly, let's just go
over our right and we will recreate this line
that we have on the bottom. Let's just hold it at the end. When we have the straight line, let's just work more on
the shape of our cloud. Let's just make it more flowing. What we need to do is to
create a different shape. For example, let's
just go and create something in that way when
you have it on the right. Let's just go to the left and
do something similar here. You can put this cloud
on the same line, or you can go and put
it higher or lower. Let's just start by
recreating this line that we have on
the bottom again, let's just create a flowy shape. What we need to do is to
create something like that. If you have some lines
that are overlapping, you can go grab and erase our tool and erase the
parts that you don't need. In the same way we will go and recreate the shape for our moon. Let's just go and
recreate very easily, just with the same lines
that we have on our scheme. Now when we are mostly done, let's just go to
our layers and we will hide our layers
with the schemes. What we need to do
is to go to both of these layers that
we have, our schemes. And we will need to go to these little check marks
and tap on the. Now, let's just look at the whole illustration
in general and if we want to add some details or if we want to
adjust some parts, let's just go and adjust it. Let's just get back to
our layers and let's unhide our first layer
with the scheme because we are going to be creating this element on
the circle and we need to make sure
that everything is looking nice in accordance
with this circle. Let's just take a look at the whole illustration
in general, and if you want to go
and add some details, you are welcome to
go and do that. For example, you can
go to the land parts and add a few more
elements as a grass. Or if you want to go over the
top and add some sparkles, you are welcome to
go and do that. And when you are satisfied
with your sketch, we are ready to move
on to our next part, where we are going to be
aiding our clean lines.
5. Clean Lines: We have our sage, it's time to start
aiding our clean lines. Firstly, let's just go
to the brush library. And we will go into the
inking folder here, we'll select technical pen. While we are still here,
into our brush library, let's just go and
adjust our brush. We want all of our lines
to be very smooth. Let's just go and
tweak one option. Let's just tap onto
our technical pen. And here in the brush studio, we'll go under stabilization. We have the option streamline which has a slighter amount. If it's set at a
very low amount, we can go to drawing pad and check out how our brush works. We can just go and create
a line and you will see that you have a lot of
control over your line, but your line is a
little bit jagged. If you want everything
to be very smooth, you can go with the maximum
amount of streamline. Also, you can just go to the drone path and
check out how it works. You can see that it's
a very smooth line, but if you want to adjust
the control over your line, you just need to go
to the slider amount and find what works for you. When you found what
works for you, let just it down
over the top right. And we will go and
create one more layer. Firstly, we are
going to our layers and we are tapping
on the plus icon. This layer we will use
to recreate our circle. You can just leave it as
it is without renaming it. Or if you want, you
can go and rename it also while we are still
here into our layers. Let's just go to our layer with this gauge and we will go and change the capacity level of this layer. We know
how to do that. We are going to our icon, we are going to our
slider with capacity. And we are dragging
our slider toward the left side until we still can see what's happening
onto this layer. But when it's not that bright, when you find the amount of
capacity that works for you, let's just get back
to our new layer. And then we will go to our color palette and we will
select dark purple color. Firstly, we are getting
back to our canvas and we are recreating this circle
again the same way as before. We are just going
there with one line. We are not lifting
up our apple pencil, and we are holding
it at the end to make sure that it is a
perfectly round circle. We are holding one of our
fingers on the screen, and if we need to
adjust the size, we will move our apple
pencil from side to side. Also, we can go to our top, to the editing mode and adjust the size of this element
and its position. Let just go and
create the elements. And when you are done, we
will just tap on the screen. If you have a little
gap like that, you can go and
manually adjust it. Now when we have our circle, we will get back
to our layers one more time and we will
create one more layer. This layer we will
rename as lines. Now our main goal is to go to our objects that we have on
the sketch and recreate them. All that we need to do here
is to create closed lines. The closed lines means
that we don't have any gaps between our elements. This is closed and this is not. Now very quickly, let's just
go and recreate our objects. And remember that we are
creating a piece of art, so you don't need to
recreate everything with 100% of similarity that
you have on your sketch. If you want to adjust something, if you want to add something, you are welcome to go and
do that very quickly. Let's just go and
create our lines for the straight lines that we
have to our illustration. Let's just use one option
that procreate has. We will need to go under range
icon here in the actions. We will go under canvas. We will total drawing guides. And when you do that, you
will see that the cells are going through the whole
shape of your canvas. That's exactly what we need, but we will need to
turn on one option. Let's just go under
eight and drawing guides here on the bottom, we will total assisted drawing. When we're done with this task, we will hit down over the top. Right now we will go
to our objects that have our straight lines and we will just go and use
this assisted drawing. So what we need to do
firstly is to go to our stairs and just go in
there and creating the line. You will see how
easy we can do that. Let's just go and add our steps. And now we will go to the steps that we have on the
top and we will add the vertical lines the
same way we will add the straight lines
to the top part of our stairs and to our castle. When you are done with
adding your straight lines, let's just go again to the range icon and we will
toggle Drawing Guide. We will get rid of
these guiding lines. And then we will need
to go to our layers. And you will see that our layer with the lines is now assisted. If we go to our canvas and if we try to create
something here, you will see that we still
creating the straight lines. We will need to go and
manually turn it off. We will need to tap on
our layer with the lines. And we will need to select
drawing a list from the list. Now when we have
just a clean layer, let's just go and continue
aiding our lines. When you are done
with your main lines, let's just go to
our layers and we will hide our layer
with this gauge. And with this scheme, we will take a look at the
whole illustration. And now we will need to
decide what we want to keep. If we want, we can go
to these parts where we have our circle
overlapping the objects, and we can erase
this little parts so our objects are in front. Or if you want, you can go
and hide these little parts, for example, on the trees on
the bottom and erase them. We have two layers
for that part and we just need to go and
decide what we want to keep. Let's just go to our
layer with the circle. We will grab our eraser tool, and if we want to
erase some lines, we will go and erase them. If you want to go and erase
these lines on the trees, you will need to
go to the layers and go to your layer with the lines and go over these
little elements and eras. When you are done
with erasing lines, let's just check
out whether all of our lines are closed and then we can move on to our next part where we are going to be
aiding our base colors.
6. Basic Colors: Lets add our color, in part by changing the color
of our background. What we need to do is
to go to our layers and go to our layer
with background color. Let's tap on it,
and let's select background color from
our color palette. When we did it, we will see that we have changed the
background color. Now let's just go and do
a few more things that will help us to add the colors
to our whole illustration. Firstly, we would
need to go and add the color to the background
of our illustration, to this object that
we have as a circle. Let's just go again
to our layers. What we need to do is to go firstly and hide our
layer with the lines. You can see that this
object that we have here has some gaps that
we've made before. And we will need to go and
create a similar shape, but it should be solid. What we need to do is to go to this layer where we
have our circle on. And we'll need to
make two duplicates. To make a duplicate, we will need to swipe our
layer from right to left and choose duplicates when we did it the first time. Let's just do it one more time, swiping from right to left
and choosing duplicates. Now we will go to this layer
that we have on the top, and we will go to our
arrow key on the top left. We also will go to
the bottom part and we will choose
flip vertical. When we do that,
you can see that we have a solid circle right now. Let's just deselect
everything by hitting our arrow
key one more time. Then we will get back to our layers and we'll merge
these two layers together, the one on the top and
one underneath it. Let's just tap on this layer on the top and we will
choose merge down. Now if we go to our
layer number four where we have our circle with
gaps and we will hide it, we will see that we have
this object that we can use later on to add
the background color. Now let's do the following. Firstly, we will go
back to our layers and we will go to our
layer with the sketch. From this layer, we will create one more layer that we will
rename as circle background. Now we will return
to our layer with the solid outline that
we have for our circle. We will tap on it and we will choose reference from the list. When we're selecting reference, we are using these
lines that we have on this layer on
different layers. Now if we get back to our
layer with circle background, we can just go and end the
color inside this ship. Let's first go to
our color palettes. And let's select one color
with the name, Pink. With this color, we
will just go and dragon drop the color
inside the object. When we are done, we are
getting back to our layers and now we can return to our
layer with the solid outline. We can tap on it and we
can turn off reference. And also we can just go and hide this layer because
we don't need it anymore. Now let's just go and work
more onto this little sheep. We want to add a few more colors and we want to create
a gradient here. But what we need to do is
to add the colors only on the existing areas that
we have onto this layer. We will need to go and
turn on one option. Let's just tap on our layer with circle background and
let's select alpha lock. You will see that you
have the checkerboard around your elements
in the layers panel. And that's exactly what we need. That means that we can
end the details only on the existing areas that we
already have onto this layer. Now let's just go and
select a different brush. So we are going to
the brush library. We are going to the
calligraphy folder, and we are selecting
monoline brush, it just the size of it. And let's just go back to our color palettes and let's
select a few more colors. For example, let's start by selecting the color with
the name, Magenta Pink. With this color, we will step a little bit from our top part of this shape and we will just add a line like that
when you have it. We will go again to our
color palettes and we will select the next color,
greyish magenta, pink. With this color, we will go underneath this little
element that we have, we will add the second color. You don't need to
be very precise, just create the color. And when you are done,
we will get back to our color palette and we will
select light orange color. We will go and recolor the
bottom part of this object. When we are done,
we are ready to add the gradient and we can add
it by going to our magic 12, going under Gaussian blur. And then you can see on the top, we have the option
Gaussian blur, 0% If we hold our apple
panel at our screen, and if we move it more
toward the right side, you will see that we
are adding some blur. So find what works for you and create a very smooth gradient. Something like 60,
65% will work best. When you are done, let
just hit our magic one tool one more time to
get away from this mode. And now when you're
ready with this task, let's just go back
to our layers. And let's unhide our layer
with the lines and with our line that we have for
the outside of the circle. This is our layer underneath this layer number four where
we have our solid one. We also will need to go and merge these two
layers together. So we are going to
this layer with our solid line and we
are dragging it up. To drag it up, we will just need to hold it and drag it up. Now when we have
these two layers, one underneath another, we
are going to the top layer. We are tapping on it and we
are choosing merged down. Now all of our lines
are on one layer. And you can notice that we
lost the title of this layer. Let's just tap on this layer and rename it as lines
one more time. Now we will need to set
this layer as reference, so we are able to add the
colors on different layers. Let's just tap on our layer with the lines and let's select
reference from the lists. Now we will go to our layer
with circle background. And from here we will create
one more layer that we will rename as trees, the
same way as before. Firstly, we will go to
our color palettes. We will go to our blue
section and we will start adding the colors gradually from darker
to lighter one. Firstly, we will
select the color with the name Blue one and we will drag it to this tree
that we have on the bottom. Now let's just go and start
selecting the lighter colors, and let's add them to
the rest of the trees. The same thing we
will do on our right. Let's just go to
our bottom parts. And let's start from here
with the darker color. You can play runs
with these colors. You can find what works for you. You don't need to repeat
everything completely the same way as you see it on your screen. It's
your time to play. When you are done with
recoloring the trees, let's just go and add the
colors to our trunks. We will use the same color that we're using for our lines. So let's just get back to our color palettes and let's
select dark purple color. We will go and drag and drop the color to the needed less. When you are done
with the trees, let's just get back to
our layers and let's create one more layer that
we'll rename as River. With this new layer, we will get back to
our color palettes. We will select the light,
sea, and blue color, and we will drag it to this object that we
have as our water. When you are done one more time, we are getting back to
our lis and we will create a new layer for
the rest of the objects. Let's start with the layer
with the name bushes. When we have our Er, we will get back to
our color palettes and we will select some color. For example, let's go
with magenta pink. Or with pink, we will
use this color to add it to these places that we are going to be using
for our bushes. We also can use
the similar color to the areas where
we have some ***. If you want to adjust the colors or if you want to use
the different ones, you are welcome to do it. For example, when you choose the color and when you
want to adjust it, you can go to the magic want to the hue saturation
and brightness. And play with these sliders. For example, let's just go and maybe make these elements a little bit darker or lighter when you found what you like. Let's just tap on
our magic one tool one more time to get
away from this mode. Now let's just go and recolor
the rest of the elements. So firstly, we are going back to our layers and we are
creating a new layer, let's rename it as clouds. Then we will get back
to our color palettes. We will select the
white color and we will drag and drop the color
to these needed places. When you are done, we are
getting back to our lier and we will create a new
layer for our castle. When we are done,
we will get back to our color palettes and let's select the color
with the name, pink. With this color, we will go to the main shape that we
have for our castle, the body of the castle, and
we will add this color here. You can see that
when you are putting one color to one
place on the top, you have the option
continue filling. You can just select it and then go to the objects that you want to recolor and tap on them and recolor
them in that way. When you are done
with adding the color to the main shape of our castle, let's just go to
the steps and let's recolor them with the
same color as well. And when we are done
with this color, we will need to go back
to our top where we have color drop option
and we will need to tap onto this
little check mark. When you are done
with this color, let's just go and select another color that we
will use on our roof and on other objects that belong to our
castle, for example. Let's just go with
some blue color. Let's just go with
blue number three. With this color, we will go to the top and we will add
the color to the roof. We also can try to
add this color to the door and to our
object on the stairs. When you are done, let's just tap on our
little check mark. And let's just go and select
some different colors. For example, let's go
with light orange. With this color, we
will go and add it to these elements on the door if you want to end
it somewhere else. For example, on this
little moon, go and edit. And now with the same color, let's just go and create one more layer for our
miscellaneous objects. Let's just go with
the same color to all these objects that
we have on the top, and we will add
this color to top. Also, lets just go to the top and we will
recover our flag, our little cave, and also this little element that we have
right here near the tree. Firstly, let just get back
to our color palette and let's choose some color
for the top flag. Let's select some blue color. You can try out different
variations on the colors and find what works for you when you found
the need color. Let's just go to the
cave and we will firstly recolor this little shape that
we have between two lines. You can go with the
same blue or with the purple color and add
this color to the part. When you are done, we will go
inside this little cave and we will add the same color
that we use for our lines. One more time, let's
just get back to our color palette
and let's select the color with the
name, dark purple. When we have it, we will just drag and drop the color inside. If you have this little
gap between your elements, you can go and
adjust it manually. Now let's just go and add the
same color that we used for our bushes to this little part right here underneath
our trees on the right. Let's firstly go to our layer
that belongs to the bushes, and we will need to go and select the same color
that we have here. But as you can remember, we were changing our color so we don't have it into
our color palette. We will need to go to our canvas and we will need to pick
the color from here. To do so, we will
just need to go to the color that
we want to select. And we will need to hold
one of our fingers there. You can see you have
created this little tool and we will need to just select this color that we
have on the top. When you are done,
we are going to these little places and we
will just recolor them. Now let's just go and
pick some color to these little elements on
our land, for example. Let's just go with
some purple color. Now take a look at your
whole illustration in general and think about whether you want to
adjust some parts. For example, if you
think that maybe your castle is a little bit too bright for the
whole picture, you just need to go
to the needed layer and go to the hue, saturation and brightness
and adjust it. You can go and adjust only the elements that
you want to adjust. For example, you
don't want to adjust the color of your roof
and other elements, you just want to adjust
the color of your castle. You can go to the top where you have hue saturation
and brightness. Tap on this little arrow
down and select pencil. When you have it on, you can just go over the places
that you want to recolor and select them and then recolor by using
the hue slider. When you've selected
the whole area, you can go to your
sliders and as the color. And when you are done, we will tap on our magic one tool one more
time and we are ready to move on
to our next part where we are going to
be aiding our details.
7. Shadows & Highlights: Let's start this part
by going to our layers. Firstly, we will go to
earlier with the lines and we will turn off reference because
we don't need it anymore. Let's just step on the layer and let's select preference from the list when we've gotten
rid of our reference. Let's just start by adding
some shadows to the trees. We will go to earlier
with the trees and we'll create one
more layer from here. Let's just tap on the plus icon and let's remain this
layer as shadows. We wouldn't want to
add the shadows on the existing areas that we
have on the previous layer, but we want to add them
on a separate layer. We will need to
use something like alphalog on the separate layer. We have this option in procreate and it is
called Clipping mask. Let's just tap on our
layer with shadows, and we will select Clipping
Mask from the list. When we did it, we will
need to do one more thing. We will need to change the
b***ding mode on this layer. B***ding modes are
different ways your lists can interact
with each other. When you are changing
b***ding modes, you can adjust the
visual effects on the layer and
the whole picture. In general, for
the shadows we are going to be using
multiply b***ding mode. Let's just go and turn it on. We will need to go to our
icon near the checkbox. And from this list we will
need to select multiply. As for the capacity for now, let's just go with 50% If it's not enough
or if it's too much, we can always get back to this option and
we can adjust it. We are done with the task. Let's just go and
select our color. Let's just go to
the color palettes. And let's go to this blue area and select some color from here. If you want, you can try out different colors if you
don't like the first one. You can always go back
to your color palette and select another one and
find what works for you. Just for example, let's go and select color with
the name Blue Three. With this color, we will
go to the bottom parts of our trees and we will
add our shadows here. But firstly, let's just get
back to our brush library. We will go to the ink and
folder and we will select Technical Pen if you would like to go to
the brush studio, to the stabilization,
to the streamline, and adjust the amount you
are welcome to go and did. Now let's just go to
our left side and we will start by creating
some shadows here. Let's start from
this tree that we have on the bottom left. Let's go to the bottom, and let's start creating
wavy lines like that. You don't need to be precise. You don't need to
follow any direction. You just need to
create some shadow that will turn it
into the texture. When you have the line,
let's just go underneath it and we will recolor
this area manually. We will go to all of these
little parts that are some protruding and we will add the shadows
underneath them too. Let's just go firstly
to this area. Let's add a little shadow, just recreating the
line that we have. Then we will add
two more shadows underneath these two
more protruding parts. If you want to add more
shadows or if you want to add more texture with
the little elements, you are welcome to
go and do that. You can go and add some dots or maybe some lines to some parts. If you need to
adjust some parts, you are welcome to go
and grab the eraser to. And as the parts that you
don't need in the same way, with the same color, we will go through all
of these trees that we have on our left and we
will do the same thing here. Let's just go mostly to the bottom parts of
our trees and let's start adding some wavy lines to add some texture
to our trees. When you have the outlines, just go underneath them
and add the color insight. Now let's just go and add more shadows underneath our
little protruding parts. If you want to add some
additional elements such as dots or lines, you are welcome to
go and do that. Now let's just go through all the rest of our trees
and do the same thing. Let's just go to
the bottom parts. We will start from creating
the lines that are wavy more on the bottom and underneath our little
protruding parts, and we will add the
shadows to them. When you are done,
we are ready to add some highlights
to our trees. We will do the same thing
as we did with our shadows. We will just go to
the layers and we will create one more layer here. Let's just tap on the plus icon and let's rename
it as highlights. Let's clip this layer
to a previous one. Tap and selecting clipping mask. And then we will go and change the b***ding mode
to add or over lay. When we did it, we
will go back to our color palettes and we
will select the white color. Now we will go to
the opposite from our shadow side and we will
add little highlights. Let's just go firstly
over our right side. We will go to this part
on the top and we will go through our little outline and we will add the
highlight in that way. Also can go and add some
texture with your highlights. You can just go and add some
dots or maybe some lines. In the same way, we
will go through all of our trees and we will add
our little highlights. When you are done, let's continue adding some
additional elements. Firstly, we will get back to our layers and we will
go to our next layer, which is our layer with river. Let's just go and add
some gradients to it. Firstly, we will go and type on our layer with river and
we will select Alpha Lock. When we have it, we will go
back to our brush library. We will go to the
ear brushing and we will select
medium b***d brush. We will use the same
white color and we will go and adjust the
size of our brush. We will go to the bottom part
of our water element and we will start adding some additional color
here, very softly. Go there and add the white color by creating a little gradient. If you already did
it or if you have some very seen intersection
between two colors, you always can go
to your magic want to Gaussian blur and
add the blur from here. When you have your elements
the same way as you want it, let's just go to our magic
anto and deselect everything. We then will go and add some additional
elements to our river. Firstly, let's just get
back to our brush library. We will get back to our
inking folder and we will select our technical pen
with the same white color. We will just go inside our river and we will start adding
some lines in that way, basically just follow the
direction on the lines that you already have onto this element and add some highlights
to the water. You can go with some waves. You can go with some little
dots or just little lines. When you are ready with adding the highlights to
the river element, Let's continue by adding the details to the
bushes one more time. We are going to our lies. We are selecting our
li with the bushes. From here we will
create one more layer. We will rename it as details. Let's clean this layer
to a previous one. So we are tapping on it and we are selecting clipping mask. We won't be changing
our b***ding mode, we will just go to
our color palettes and we will start selecting
different colors. For example, let's start with
magenta pink, two color, we will go to the bottom
parts of our elements, more towards the middle part of them and toward the bottom part. And we will start adding
different colors here. Firstly, let's just go somewhere to our middle part
of the illustration. And let's start from here. We will go again with some
lines that are creating some texture and we will start creating our elements
very randomly. Just go and start
creating the waves. And then when you
have the outline, just go down and recreate these
elements with this color. You also can go and create the outlines along
the whole shape that you want to recolor. And then you can just drag
and drop the color inside. Also, if you are
dragging and dropping, and if you still
have this little gap between your outlines and the color that you
want to put in, don't lift your apple
pencil and just move it toward the right until you
don't have this little gap. Now when you have the
first element recolored, let's just go through all of our bushes and also
onto our lands. And we will add the same
color to all of them. Go into the bottom
part of our elements. When you are done, we will go and select a different color. For example, let's just go and select the color with
the name purple Two, with this color on
the same layer, we will go more to the bottom
of these elements that we have just created and we will add the second
color to them. Again, just go in with
our shapes and we are creating the outlines
that will add some texture. When you are done, put
in the second color, we can go to this
transition between two colors and we can
make it more soft. We can go to match
two and we will go right between these two shapes and we will just
merge them together. By b***ding them that way, you can go through all of these
shapes that you have just created or just to some of them and b***d the
colors together. If you want to go and adjust
the intensity on the colors, you can just go to your layers. Go to your layer
with the details, go to the icon and adjust
the opacity of this layer. When you are done
with this task, when you're satisfied
with the b***ding and with everything that
you have onto this layer, let's just go and start
adding some highlights. Again, we are creating
a new layer above our layer with the
details and we will rename it as highlights. Let's clean this layer
to a previous one. And also let's just go to our icon and change the
b***ding mode to overlay. We will go then to
our color palettes and we will select
the white color. We will go and make sure that we are using technical pen brush. And we will go to these
parts that are opposite from our shadows and we will add
our highlights on them. Let's just go and do that. If you want to add some
additional elements, some dots or maybe some lines, you are welcome to
go and add them. When you are done,
let's continue adding our additional
elements to the clouds. Firstly, we are
going to our layers. We are selecting our
layer with the clouds and above it we are
creating one more layer. Let's rename this
layer as Details. Let's clean this layer
to a previous one. And we don't want to change
the b***ding mode here. Let me just go back
to our color palette and let's select
some pinkish color. Or if you want, you can
go with purple one. When you have the color, we will get back to
our brush library. We will go to the air
brushing medium b***d. And we will go to our
bottom parts of our clouds. And we will start adding
solved gradients there again, if you overdid it or if you want to make
a smoother b***d. Let's just go to our magic anu Gaussian blur and add some
Gaussian blur from here. When you are satisfied, let's just get away from this mode by hitting
our magic an to, and then we are ready to
move on to our next layer. Let's just get back
to our layers. We will go to our castle
and we will create one more layer above that
we'll rename as Shadow. Let's clip it to a previous
layer typing clip in mask. And we will go to
our icon and we will select multiply
b***ding mode for the capacity we are using 50% Now let just get back
to our brush library, inking folder, technical pen, and we will use some darker
color to add our shadows. Again, you can go either with some pinkish color or with
purple when you have it. Let's just go to some areas
where we can add our shadows. And let's just go
and add the shadows. So firstly, we
will go underneath the roof and we will start adding the shadows repeating the lines that we
have on our roof. If you want to add
some additional shadows to your elements, you are welcome to
go and do that. If you want to add the
shadow to your roof, you are welcome to do it too. And of course, if you want to add some additional elements, some dot, some lines again, you're welcome to do it. Now, let's just go
to our stairs and we will go to every step
that we have here, and we will add our shadow
to the bottom part of them. We also can go to
this little part that we have on the left
from our stairs, and we can add the
shadow here too. When you are ready, let's just go and start
adding some highlights. Again, we are going
to our layers. We will create one more layer above our layer with the shadow, and we will rename
it as highlights. Let's clip it to
a previous layer, and let's go and change the
b***ding mode to overly. We will go then to
our color palettes and we will select
the white color. We will go to the opposite
sides from our shadows, and we will add our highlights. Some dots, lines, and
sparkles are welcome. When you are done,
let's just get back to our layers and we will go to
our miscellaneous objects. If we want to add
something there, we are welcome to
go and do that. For example, if you want to add a little shadow to your
flag or to your moon, you are welcome to go and do that the same way
as with highlights. For example, let's just go and create one more layer above. We will rename it as Highlights. And we will go over
the top parts of our objects and we will
add some sparkles there. When we are ready
with these parts, let's just get back to
our layers and we will create one more layer
onto this layer. We will add a few more details. Let's just tap on this layer and let's rename it as details. We will then go to
our brush library. We will go to the
calligraphy folder and we will choose
monoline brush. We will go to some of
our objects and to our background and we will
add some dots, for example. Let's just go to
our color palettes and let's select
some purple color. With this purple color, we will go to our clouds, to the bottom part of them, or to some of the parts that you want to add some
different elements. You are welcome to go
and add some dots here. If you want to use
a different color, you are welcome to
go and select it. If you want to go through the background and add some
additional elements there, you are welcome to do it too. Also, you can go and
change the color of the lines that you have on
these miscellaneous objects. To do so, we will need to
go back to our layers. And we will need to find our layer with the
lines and select it. Above this layer, we will
create one more layer and we will need to clip this layer to our
layer with the lines. Let's just tap on it and
let's select Clipping Mask. Now we will go to these little
objects that we have here. We will select the same
color that we have on them. We will go along
these lines that we have and we can
go and recolor them. If you have these little gaps, you will need to get back
to the layer where we have these little objects
and you will need to recolor
these little lines. So let me just go through all of these little
miscellaneous objects and let's recolor their lines. And when he did it, now
it's time to take a look at your picture and figure out whether you want to
adjust some parts. So for example, if you
want to go and adjust the intensity of your shadows
or of other elements, you are welcome to
go and do that. If you want to go to
this background color that you have inside the
circle and adjust it, you are welcome to
go and do that too. All that you need
to do is to find the needed layer, go to it, go to the magic wand to go to the saturation and brightness
and adjust the color. If you want to go through the layers that
you want to adjust, adjust them and when you're
satisfied with your picture, we are done with
our illustration. Thank you for
