Starting with Pen Drawings in Procreate in 5 easy steps + Free Brushes

1. Introducing the Class: Creating pen drawings with a regular pen or a fine liner. One of my favorite things to do, just take a pen, paper and start drawing away. But I like working with Procreate to, and I would love to just pick up my iPad and create a convincing pen drawing on it. But to be able to create pen drawings on my iPad, I had to overcome a number of challenges. By now. I can just pick up my iPad and create beautiful drawings on this. Now my iPad pen drawings just look pretty much the same as my redrawing. I just loved it. And I can imagine that others would just love to pick up the iPad and create convincing pen drawings on it. And that's why I created this class for Procreate, starting with pen drawings in five easy ways. And yes, there's really only five steps involved in this process. The first step, one we're gonna do is I'm going to show you how to effectively use a set of brushes I created to mimic perfectly well what pens and fine liners do. Unreal paper. I guess that was quite a challenge to develop those brushes and to make them the same as my pens and fine lines, but I managed to do so. I just want to share those brushes to get you going. These brushes are they fill up to get you drawing with a pen on, Procreate easily and right away without having to think of all kinds of settings and things. They're all built into these brushes that are quite easy to use. You go. Now the other steps involved starting with drawing and sketching in Procreate. How do you bring your light and shadow effectively into a drawing to make it convincing? Because if you work with a pen that's totally different than working with column, with color, you get all kinds of ranges of tones you can bring in to create form and depth and light and shadow into a painting or drawing. But with a regular pen, you do not have that option. You only have most of the time one color. And I'm going to show you how to do that with a pen, which techniques are in full? Now, we're not gonna go into complicated things, not complicated theories and techniques. This is a practical guide to get you started with drawing with a pen. We're also going to look at the power of free. Now the power of three is a special technique I've developed to really make those pen drawings convincing and beautiful. And I'm going to share the technique with you in this interval. I'm not going to share what the power of three is all about. We have the lessons for that, but I would recommend start with the first lesson. And let me take you step-by-step through the process of how I create pen drawings in procreate, in five easy steps. 2. Getting started: Welcome to starting with pen drawings in five easy steps. This is the first step. The first step is just setting up a Canvas, installing those pens so that we can make it herself easy. And then in the next lesson, we actually can start drawing. Let's set up our canvas first. For that, of course, we need Procreate. I've got Procreate stand-up already. We're going to press the plus. Now, I've got those papers already. But what we want first, we want to create two papers. We want to create a A4 landscape, so like that, and an A4 portrait like that. So for the A4 portrait, you hit this little plus here, we get a new canvas. You could name it, let's say A4 portraits. Let's do a different, let's say that we know what it is. Pen drawings. You go portrait. We're going to set our size here two millimeters. And an A4 is 210 millimeters. The height of an A4 to another 97 millimeters. I'm leaving it this 300 DPI, 116 layers. Yours might be different depends on the iPad. The rest color profile, file and time-lapse and stuff. I'm not going to worry about. I'm going to leave that as is. I'm working myself in sRGB, but you can work in anything you like. This one is unnamed. The unnamed is, I think the P. That is a weird. Alright. I'm using, here's another one. Mine is called on for some reason, but you should have a different name PEP display, something like that. It's something with a P. Alright, so the dimensions, that's the important part. The time-lapse, you just put on whatever you have it done. And once you've cut the dimensions, right, you say Create, you get a new document. Well, I'll leave it for now. So that is now called untitled artwork. But if all is well, somewhere down here, you've got a new pen, drawings, portraits. Alright, and let's rename this to, I'm going to rename, tap on it. I'm going to rename this same pen drawings and, um, portraits. The eighth one and say done, right, the next one, I'm going to add a new one. I'm going to say plus. And I'm gonna go to the millimeters again now gonna disrupt and around the width will be 297, the height will be 210 millimeters. So I've got a number of layers and DPI leaflet on 300 and just say Create. That will be the second one. On titles. I'm going to call this pen drawings. Oh, poor, but ten drawings. And then we're going to call it landscape. She'd be there. They need so that you don't get a space behind it. So now we've got two of them setup. We're going to start with the pen drawings portrait. Now attached with this class, you will find some swatches called Penn calls with some pen colors and of course, black, blue, and some gel pen colors, some gray tones to sets, and a single one, nice color too. So you get those as a little bonus. And of course, there's depends. So recalled ABB pens and there's a number of pen Zoom, you've got first of all, free fine liners. These are fine line is you can set the size to any size you like. Larger or smaller. Very fine. You can do whatever you like with dose. This fine liner is slightly different, is a bit more tapered than the other one. So just more flat one. This is a bit more tapered so as if it had a bullet point. The next one is a worn-out. It's a bit more faded. And then you have this set above it with a fine liner, fine medium bolts and extra bold, those are set sizes. So if I pick the median one, I'm going to draw a line. I get this. If I change the size, I'm still going to get that. I set the size to a certain size. You cannot change the size on this. If you want to change size, you need those free ones. We're going to mainly work with these fine lines. And above it you'll find a number of ballpoint pens. The same again, the regular ballpoint pen, you can change the size too small too with any way you like, white. And then above it There's a fine medium bolts and extra bold one, and that is the same. If I take the bold one, I can draw it. I can change the size. Nothing will happen. And I'm going to zoom in and see you've got this nice fine lines and you've got this nice ballpoint lines. I created these pens, especially also if these sizes so that we can really go for traditional drawing in Procreate. I also have a class on this. What we do this with a pen and fine lines. And we're going to just exactly do the same. Learn how to draw with a pen, a traditional way in Procreate. So that's going to be fun. We're going to explore this together a bit more. The next thing you get with this class are some papers. I'm gonna go to my photos. You should have them installed there somewhere. There's free paper Texas with just more of a white one. So it has a nice texture. I think Councilman with you should see some nice texture on it. The next one I need to get to the next one is more of a real paper with a bit of a tan color and nice texture on it. And the third one is the same paper but more white and again, with this nice texture in it. So that's free papers and not a thing there is with this class, are these apples a practice sheet? And these two drawings, we're going to use styles, but not in this lesson and the lesson, this lesson is just short. This is step one, setting up our canvas. You install your brushes, installed the papers, and then once you've done that, we're moving to step number two, where we're going to start a little bit of drawing. You in step number two. 3. Drawing and Sketching: Welcome to step number two off, starting with pen drawings in five easy steps for Procreate. This is the procreate version we're going to work in Procreate. We want to continue working in procreate. Oh, no, we're not going to continue. We're going to really start working in Procreate. Now, we've set up the Canvas. You've got those pens, we've got the papers and the practice sheets. So now we can start drawing. Let's go. I've kept this mess, this demonstration mess, and before you actually start, you can play a little bit with the pen. I'm going to clear this. Alright, now the first thing I wanna to show you is we're going to do the second step. The second step is drawing and sketching. Drawing first, sketching, is there a difference? I want to show you that now. I'm going to demonstrate that with drawing a circle. Now, most people, if they draw a circle, Let's see, I've got a pen, I've got the Pope and point Boltzmann, that's good. I got that blue, nice Pope. And I'm going to use that ballpoint pen for now. If you draw a circle in procreate, of course most of these others do it really easy. Holds. Then say Edit Shape, create the perfect circle. Right? Now. Great circle. There's always a perfect circle, isn't it? In Procreate? Okay. I'm going to throw that one away. Eddie, do it by hand. You're not gonna get that perfect circle, but there's two ways to draw it. Demonstrated. The first way is what I already did is actually drawing. You just draw your circle and something like a circle. And most the time if people draw traditionally, what you're gonna do is create that circle motion and then put the pen down and hopefully get a better circle. You can do way better. So I'm gonna go the other way round. They go way better than the previous one. Pay some attention. But as you can see, well, it's hit or miss or you have to do a lot of practice. So that will be drawing. You just start at 1 a and you arrive at B. And you draw just a line from a to B without lifting the pen, and that is drawing. The second way I could do is I could also go from a to B. Sketching. And sketching would be, I would draw lines like that until I get to be so short strokes. So if I do the same by sketching a circle, I would start at 1 and just go and then probably go the other way. And I can make small corrections while I'm drawing. So if I go really of course, I can just go back easily. And if I go off course there, I go back easily. And just correct the way I'm going and even drawing a straight line. If you draw a straight line, it's way easier to do that. Straight. This one will get waste trade because you have a lot more control. Now, the other thing there is about this is that it just looks totally different inner drawing, let me show you something then, how that looks. And I'm not going to show it in Procreate. I'm going to show some pictures. Real life, real life, traditional pictures. Yes. I think that is good on camera. You can see them both. Let me get my pen back. There's two flowers here and others more than two flowers here. I think six flowers even. But there's two ways of drawing. This is drawn as a drawing with lines that are continuous. So starting at 1, ending at another point. And then I added color to make it look nice. So that would be more, I would say comic style, like a coloring page. First, it's just catching way. This is sketched, so not starting at 1, but having all these nice sketch lines, then adding the color, I would say this is looking a lot more lifelike than this is. This is my preference. But I know a lot of people that prefer that. Now, for this class you have a choice. You can pick either drawing if you say, I want to do everything and drawing style, or I want to do everything is sketching style. I'll totally leave that up to you. I'm gonna go with sketching style. You can go with the drawings stamp. That's perfectly fine with me. I'm perfectly fine for this. And if you want to have a real challenge to try both, Let's continue. Now step two doesn't answer. Of course what we're gonna do is this is just the start, just a little demonstration. We got to practice this a little bit. So what I'm gonna do, I'm going to add a new layer. I'm going to hide this one. And now I'm going to add a picture. So I'm just going to say Add, insert a photo and you've got these photos, the one you need is the one with the apples. Now let's shoot right away. Fit the page nicely. Hit that arrow already. So here are our apples and we're going to just practice with the apples. We're going to add a new layer above the apples. We want to keep the original layer. You may even want to lock it. So slide it over to the left and then say lock. So does you cannot draw on it accidentally. We're gonna take that pen that bolts now we're going to go for the medium now. And what we're going to do is simply practice drawing. First of all, a little bit of drawing. We're going to start at 1 and ends at the other point. And what is going to actually trace this? That makes it nice this tracing, because if you have your own design at the end, you want to ink that you can leave the original under it and start tracing in Qing De original. That's the way most people inking with in real life due to your drawing with just simply with a pencil. And then once that is done with taking a pen, then you have few options is a fountain pen and then trace it and you would get something like, I got to find that paper if we can get the right number favors here. Something like this. The same practice in real life, printed, sketched and drawn, and then with different kinds of pens and then fine liners and those choices you have in real life too. Alright, I'm gonna continue of course, because we're not done. Now the nice thing about Procreate is I don't have to think about where I'm going to start and end, like with a real pen icon, Smartsheet. If I'm going to go over my head, nothing will happen. So if you'd like to push your pen, you do that. Stop there. If you'd like to drag your pen. You can go the other way. And it's totally up to you go. And that is done. The first apple. Now of course, the second apple, what we're gonna do is we're going to sketch it. So instead of standing at 1, ending at 1, we want to make these loose little lines. There you go. You can play with this a little bit. That's a bit sloppy. You can do it a lot. Nicer. Totally up to you. What do you wanna do this quick and loose? Or whether you want to, the shorter and tighter, you have a little bit of variation with depth. So if I go really long lines, sketch long lines, I get this. There you go. That would be really long lines. And if I want to do it very accurate, a good sketch, very little small lines. And if I do the long ones again, it just depends on what you like. What do you want to go really rough? What do you want to go a little bit more accurate. Alright, and that's all the rest basically for this lesson. Sketching versus drawing. So doing a continuous line or doing a sketch line. Alright, and that will be step two. Last one was setting up the Canvas and having those pens, which make drawing with a pen really easy, saves you browsing through all the millions of pens. You have picked some pens and they're all set. And we can go really quick fruit of class by having everyone having the same set of pens. And the second step, very simple, sketching versus drawing. So practice that a little bit. Pick your choice. And then we'll London. No, we're gonna go to, right away to the project we're going to do for this whole class. So let's go down. Forget we need d second sheet. That is this one. We've got the second sheet and I've got a second drawing with it. We're going to add that drawing, insert a photo, but now you need that drawing. Press on it, and then there comes. Now. You don't need two of them. While you could use two of them, but we don't want to own them, um, this paper. So what we're gonna do is we got to resize this a little bit. I'm going to move it down, keep it in the middle and I'm going to just resize it to the corners until it is pretty much filling the whole page. I think this is okay. Something like that is fine. The arrow, there you go. Now we're done. We need this. Now, if you want to practice both drawing and sketching what you do now, go back to the gallery and slide over to the left and say duplicate. And you may want to rename it, lets, you could call this one sketch and you could call that one drawing this already or just adds catch to this one. Now, all I'm going to do one of them, but if you want to do two of them, yes, you can do that. The next obvious thing, what we're gonna do, of course, is add a new layer, lock this bottom layer so that we can draw on it actually with that medium pen. We're going to just draw now you have if you want to draw off the bullpen is fine. But just with that one pen, we're going to draw sticking to the medium one. And then you're going to just trace the whole thing. And I don't think you want to see me sketch this in and talk to you for all the time. So what we're gonna do with this, I'm just going to speed this up. And once this is sped up, once I'm done, then we're moving right into the next class. Okay, let's do it. I'm going to speed this up. You will see me draw it at once. That is done and you have sketched or drawn yours. Then move to the next lesson, what we're going to go for step number three. 4. Shadows & Light, the easy way: As you have seen in the video, I decided to do both drawing and sketching so you can compare to my work. And so far, I think these two steps haven't been too challenging half-day, we're gonna go into the next step, step number three, where we're going to discover how to quickly apply some shading to our drawing. Shading that, that sounds complicated, way easier than it sounds. Shading is simply bringing in a light and shadow into a drawing and shading you can do in various ways traditional art. You can do it with colors, with a pencil, with layers, and with different techniques. Now we're going to focus still on the pen. So we're going to do a technique called hatching. Now that may sound familiar. We're just going to dive right into that, right hatching. We're going to go back to D apples and hopefully we get there because the apples are our practice sheet. And what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna make it myself really nice and easy. I'm going to duplicate this layer, duplicate. So you've done some practice to, and what I'm gonna do is I'm going to move this over these ones. And that saves me quite some drawing them again. Alright, so I've moved them nicely into position so I can use, I can leave those like they are, and I can use this for the next technique. Now, before we are going to do it, I'm gonna show you a little bit on different layer. What I'm gonna do is I'm going to hide all these apples and things. And I'm going to just go through, what is that actually shading light and shadow through hatching. Now, for that, I'm going to draw simply a box. And we'll still having that same medium pen. I'm going to draw a box. And this is my box. And what I'm gonna say, I'm gonna pretend that the light is here. So if my light is here, what that means is that around here and light is not straight, but I'm a bit of an angle. This part would be really light. It's the next part will be lighter, a little bit less, and this last part would be lighted a lot less. Now if you paint, you're going to do this, color, darkening your colors. But if you do not use paint, just use one pen. You've got to do this differently. So what you will do instead, you're going to hatch and hedging simply means you're going to draw lines under an angle. Now, you could do a perfect 45-degree angle. You could have a 65th. Now, the angle doesn't really matter. What you're gonna do is you're going to draw out, let me do that right. Lines like this under an angle and try to keep them a little bit at the same distance. And that will be hatching. Now as simple as that, if we want to make this a little bit darker, what I could do next is just add simply another line, moving them. All those lines slightly closer to each other. And I have created a light part and a dark part. Now back to the box, what you're gonna do with the box. I should have done this probably on a different layer so I can hide what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna put one layer above it. I want to actually redraw my box. There you go. We're going to hex. Hex. I'm going to hedge my box. And I'm starting with one layer, applying it to wherever I want the shadow, shade. The shadow. I do not want anything there, so I'm going to leave that there. So what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna apply first layer of hedging all the way. So everything gets evenly shaded. And then in this second part here, further away from the light, we're going to actually just hatch, trying to keep the same angle. Again. If I now hide that layer under it, see you get this effect. I like part, a medium part and a dark part. And you could go theoretically around here at the edge, at a little bit more shading to get this idea. And that's all there is to shadow. The one thing you simply have to remember. Closer to the light, it's lighter, further away from the light, it gets darker. And this, we're going to use this hatching technique. You shake a drawing later on. There's one more thing I want to show you. There's a second technique building onto this head shape. Let's do that. Let me bring back that layer. Now. There's a second technique. If I want to make something really darker or shoulder this darker, but also want to bring in a little bit of texture to the second technique you could do is again, you're hatching like that. And then to make it darker, you can use cross hatching and crosshatching is simply getting lines in a 180 degrees angle on it and just hatching it again, rehashing it. And that will be crosshatching. So if I use this angle, I will go. Around there. Now, if I use this angle, I could also go like that. I have the choice of angle to create a little bit of texture effect to create a darker part. So what I'm gonna do again, I'm going to draw a box. There you go. I want to say the light still comes from here, so it's casting rays of light like that. That would mean that simply that part would be in lights despite would get darker and I'm going to create a forefathers. You can see 1234. And what I'm gonna do again, o can go on the box now under the layer under it, redraw it. And then we're going to start hatching. So first I'm going to hatch everything except for the light. Now. And if you can do one straight line, you can of course, sketch in the lines like this. Or you can just make it smaller so that you can bridge the distance in one go. There's a choice you have. If you have to go very long, you can hatch in multiple times or just do it in one go. That's up to you. Alright, That would be the first layer. Now we're going to go for a second application. So hedging, again, I'm getting a darker part. And then the third part, the darker spot, I'm actually going to cross hatch over what I already have to create that dark apart. And if I hide that top one now you get the shadows basically like this, slightly different. And this part, I could actually hedge again a little bit. And that will be hatching and crosshatching. Bring everything back again. So hatching in one direction, cross hatching one direction than 180 degree on the other direction. Alright, good. Well that's the first thing I want to show you. Now let's go to the apples. And we're gonna go to o. We have the apples on the hair, of course, already in the document. I'm going to hide all of this. I'm going to bring back those apples. I've drawn, I've got two layers. Now if you have two layers and you want them on one layer, you just press on the layer. You're going to say merge down another one layer. I want to hedge these apples. And what I'm gonna do, I want to of course, hedged them a little bit and change the sun. So what I'm gonna do, first of all, I'm going to bring a layer under it, which I can hide later on. I'm going to show you what I want, what first one I'm going to say my son is right here. That means the sun shines and casts shadows like that. The second one I'm going to go actually the opposite side. So the Sun is going there. Now, that arrow is terrible. There you go. That's better with the third one. Let's make it something interesting. Let's go from the top. Then it would cast rays like that. Now with the apple, if we make it nice and not with the boxes, we're not gonna do that. We're going to make it a little bit nicer. We're going to say, Alright, getting that bright spots. And with this apple, it would actually get that bright spot there. And this Apple would then get, of course, a bright side note not going to do spot, but with this, I'm actually going to do a site. The second one, what you're gonna do is then we need some light around it. And let's do three. We're gonna do free with this one. Let's do then for with this one. And we're going to cross hatch that one. And let's do four on this one to this one, we're only going to hedge. This one. We're going to hatch and cross hatch. Crosshatch, one of our writing. Right? Cross hatch and that one, and this one. So hatch, this one, hedge and crosshatch. Alright, good. What I'm going to do next is I'm going to go back to the original apples. I'm leaving this layer and red. So if I'm going to hedge my first Apple, no, wait, I'm gonna do the rest of course to live on it. Let's say if the sun comes from here, the leaf would get light here. The sun come from here. The leaf would get light there on the leaf. We're only going to do two areas. If the sun comes from the top was a bit same as the first one, like this. And the stock. I'm not going to worry too much about the stock. If the light comes from here to stop, we'll get a little bit around here, this top, we'll get a little bit around here, and this will get at the bottom. Now we're going back to that layer. What I'm going to do is I'm going to hedge my leaf, first of all, and then hedge this one again. The stock, I said, I'm gonna do a little bit around there. That looks good. And now with the apple, what we're gonna do is we're gonna do our first layer, going to make it nice and small so that I can hatch it. Probably, hopefully in one go. That's a bit sloppy. Ego. And now we're going to hatch secondly on our yes, that's right. We're going to have an second layer here. I thought I was going over my light side, but my light side is still there. And then the third one, We're going to hatch, we're going to zoom in slightly the ego. And we're going to hatch that one like that. This one the other way around. I'm getting some hatching there. But what are we gonna do is we're going to hedge the whole apple first. But not of course. The light its size. There you go. Then we're gonna give it a second hatching. We're going to actually give it a third hashing. And then at the end here, we're gonna do some crosshatching. Diego. And for this one we're going to await, but gotta do of course, the, the leaf, the leaf and had shared again and with the stock could give it a little bit of a dark line. You could do that here too bit darker lines, so it gets a bit more shadow. This one, we need to do slightly better. And then the last one we're gonna do from the top. And what we're gonna do is from the top, we're gonna do it like that. And then on the hair, a little bit of a layer. And then the apple itself. Let's do it under an angle. To the first application of lines, the second layer, you go and the third layer I said, we will do the last layer. We're going to actually do crosshatching on. There you go. Now, I managed to turn my paper. Then what we're gonna do, we're gonna height, of course, the thing D sketch under it. And there you go. Now, now we can correct this. This is needs to be going a bit nicer, corrected a little bit, and the rest, I'm fine with it. And now you've got some nice shaded Apple's efforts does light. You get this obvious part here. Light shining, it's getting darker the further away you get from the light. And you get that whole idea. And even by this one, you can see that both the cross hatching in it, you get a lot stronger of darker part then when you don't use it. But that's a choice. You have both choice which you can use. And that is simply how you bring in light and shadow into a drawing. Now we've practiced this, of course, are apples. Now we gotta go to, of course, the drawing. Let's go down the drawing. This is the practice. So once you've practiced this, we can go to the drawing. You can pick one of them, which one you made or both of them. This I'm actually going to do one only. Right. There you go. Now, we got to decide where the light comes from. We're going to make it yourself. The easiest is right there. The light comes from there. Oh, I'm gonna make sure I'm not on the same layer as my drawing. And let's get rid of this, right? And we're going to add a new layer, so we keep the original drawing. I'm adding a new layer. Saved. My son comes from there. So my sun is shining like that. The next step, what I'm gonna do is I'm going to decide where I want my light and shadows on here. Now, the easiest part is, of course, this one is in the light. Further away it gets darker and the more we get away it gets darker and darker. I want to do the same here now if the light shines from here, the leaves here would cast shadow right under there. I'm gonna go for the branch, or the back of the branch would be shaded the most. Then I would get some shadow, and I would get some shadow here, but this would be a little bit in shadow too. And there would be some shadow there. This branch would cost a little bit of shadow around there. Now the default get something like that. Or we could have done this in a different color and it would have worked. But let's continue the apple basically. The same here is light. Wanna do it in three parts, since there's plenty to do here. The next part is what we're gonna do here. This part, and that part gets shadow. This we're going to put completely in shadow later on. And the tree, what we're gonna do is we're going to leave it unshaded there. Then we're going to add some shadow there and we're going to add a final layer at the back. Let's see the bush, the bushes we will do later on, I'll show you how to do them. And the grass, actually, we're gonna do slightly different, make it ourselves slightly easier. Do it all. Now what we're gonna do now is we're not going to do the foliage here, the leaves, and we're not going to do those bushes behind that. We're going to leave them totally alone. And I'm going to start, so we're not going to draw those in. We're going to start with the Apple, since that is the easy part, what I'm gonna do is I'm going to add a new layer under it. And I'm going to start hashing the leaf. And the leaf again. I got to hide that original sketch probably, yeah, that's better. Now I can see where my sketches, okay, that is the leaf. Now the apple I'm gonna do. And the second amplification, they go and I'm gonna cross hatch. This part. That goes well, right? Then the next thing which I'm gonna do is actually here. I'm going to hatch this once. And inside. We're gonna cross hedge, plants, crosshatched and the ego and that gets nice and dark, getting the attention. That step looks great. This we're going to leave alone. We're going to start with hashing this shadow here. And we're gonna cross stash, cost that cross hatch debts. They go and now our flat drawing, it's looking quite nice actually already with some nice parts on it. Let's do the tree to the tree, the branches start with one layer. One. I have a little bit under there. I want some here. I said we're gonna go for the second layer. That's going to be here. We're going to stop there and then we're gonna do a third layer. Now, let's cross hatch this one too and the back to make it really dark. The only thing which I want now is here, this leaf that would be a little bit of shadow there. And I do want some shadow here to same direction to create a shadow effect later if we're going to hide the lines, you will see that a lot better. Alright, let's do the tree. The first part here. I'm going to do it in this direction. I need to make quite long strokes. I'm not gonna do that. I'm going to zoom in here a little bit so I can make sure not going over the grass. Now behind here. I definitely need some shade. Shadow too. I'm gonna do a little bit here to, there you go. That will be the first. Now around here I said, this is gonna be a lot darker. So we're going to add. The second layer. There are two. Alright, and then at the back here, let's do some cross hatching on there too. All right. It's to make it really, really black dark, not black dark. The Bush's will leave the tree. We'll leave that for our next lesson. Alright, what we're gonna do next is to flower. Now, we said, I want this to be hatched. And I want that to be hedged to right now on the petals of the flower. The light comes from here. So I would say this petal get some shadow there. This petal get some shadow there. This two now this would be under it. So this will give me some more shadow. This one, or giving some shadow. This one to here. This one is on the right again, more shadow. There you go. This one. We're gonna do it like this. Let's see. We've got the petal on the hair. So that one gets shadow and no more, this one is under it. So we're shading that, not the app that's leaf that this one, the light comes from here. The grass is before it. We're going to do is we're going to shade it like that. This one we're going to do like this again. And what is under here, we're going to shade all the way. Let's see this one. Like this. This one all the way there. This is all the way in shadow. There's some shadow right there, and then one casting some shadow on it. Here's another one. And the final one, let's add a little bit of shadow under there. And Diego, big rash that will stats. Yeah, we've got everything except for the grass now. The grass, what we're gonna do. Right, let's see, start with this one here, okay, this one, light comes from here a little bit. We're going to shade it. I would say a little bit like this, the same we're going to just do with this one. Alright, give it some shadow here. This one too. Let's see. This one. Light is coming from here. I'm going to shade this one the other way around. And the shadow would really be in there. This one too, let me go to Shadow, give him some shadow there, and then some more shading there. Alright, so now we're having some tricky blades. Let's see, I've missed a line here. Obviously. It's due at that one. Good. That's better. Make sure I'm getting back to the right layer. That is this one, hide that one. Get back to this one. Now, this blade here. I'm gonna, gonna give shadow all the way up. Right? Now displayed then get some shadow on the back again. And definitely on the bottom. This shade, this blade, what I'm going to do with display, and we're going to hatch that too, but I'm going to hedge that the opposite way so that you clearly see it's a different blades. Alright, let's see, let's continue with this one too. Then I want to hedge this one. Again the opposite way. Give it a little bit of shading there. This one going the opposite way again. I think that is good. This one only at the back. This one only at the back. Alright? And this one down there at the back. And in there, this one, let's see. All the way there. This 1100 turn-around. This is getting shadow everywhere. And in here there is shadow to see that. Yeah, we're gonna do that like this. Now I have one line there. Wow, that's another huge issue. Alright, that's the blades. Normally, I would shade this too of course. But since we're in Procreate or we're gonna do, want to make it ourselves nice and easy. I'm going to take this ribbon and makes sure the ribbon is on freehand. And once you going to do is you're going to select, make sure you are on the layer where you shaded. Select all of that, go around it. And the tricky part is at the apple. There you go. Now, tap the ranch and you make sure you're on Add. You see Copy. Next one. You're seeing stills right away. Paste. What we're gonna do, We can move this to wherever we want this, to move this paper. And we're going to add the shadow to this part. This part is actually exactly the same. Making it ourself nice and easy. There we go. Just need to perhaps correct a little bit like this is going down a little bit more at that isn't going down. You could erase that a little bit like that. And that's almost completed. There's one mistake. We need to go with me to merge these two. So this one is on top the Inserted Image and merging down with the original shading layer. The only thing which I need to do is here. Shade this a little bit better in here. Alright, now we're looking good. Now let's hide all the extras we had and look at that. We've got to bring back our line. There you go. We got a nicely shaded drawing. Oh, hang on. Right. I made a slight mistake. I see. What did I do? Oh, no, I didn't know. Now. That's right. This needs to go right. I didn't make a mistake. I made a mistake, but here you go. Here's our drawing. Yeah, I gotta pay attention. Not all doom. Here's a drawing. So far. It's not complete yet. There's still one part missing that part we'll do in the next lesson in step number four. So now we have the 1 first step is set up the Canvas, get our pencils ready. Step two is sketching, first, drawing and you make your choice most likely. And the third step we've done now is bring in some shadows and light and shadow in a really easy way. But we can go a little bit more fun with that. And we do that in the next lesson. So do this part. And then once you've done with that, I'll see you in the next lesson. 5. Going deeper with Shadows & Light: Step number four, we're going a little bit deeper with the light and shadow. Now there's a lot of techniques you can apply light and shadow with a pen. Now in this class we're only doing two of them. Hatching, crosshatching will combine into one and the next step now, going a bit more advanced is scumbling. We're going to scramble together with our pen. That's a slightly different technique of shading. And it works well together with the hatching and crosshatching. And it gives us a little bit more freedom to add some textures and a slightly different way of shading to bring a little bit more interests into the drawing. Let's start with that. We're going back to D, Apple's. Yes, we're going back to the apples. What we're gonna do is I'm going to duplicate my apples. And now I've got the help on that. I'm going to move them. I only ones don't know. No one doughs ready once I only want the ones that have nothing on it, I'm just going to put them there for now. That's good, right? We're gonna need this one. And it has its separate layer. We can merge them, we could damage them again with the bottom layer. Okay, good. But for now I'm going to hide this. I'm going to add a new layer. I'm going to show you a little bit scumbling, scrambling. What does that sounds good. Sounds terrible. Scrambled eggs. Scrambled eggs. I don't know. Let's see. I'm going to draw a box again for this. There you go. I'm going to say my life is here. That means we got the idea. There is light. Now with the hatching crosshatching we've done, but now we're going to scramble a little bit. And what is scumbling? You can do scumbling in two ways. Scumbling is basically making all kinds of small circles. You can do them small and large. And the way you want and best is to lift the pen after each circle and create shallow like this. Bring in some texture. Now if you want to have darker patch, you just bring in some more and you can make really small ones, really large ones. It's up to you, however you do these circles and as you can see, they're not perfectly Diego. That is scumbling. At least that's the first way. Scumbling. The next one we're gonna do is I'm going to draw another box. I'm gonna go with my son, exactly the same part. So I'm gonna get there. The next way you can do scramble, you can be a little bit more not saying creative, but an alternative way, slightly different. Instead of making a whole circle, you're just going to make all kinds of scribbles smaller as if you doing, you could call this scribbling to scumbling. Making all kinds of scribbles, long lines, straight lines, ended lines. So you get a little bit of more playful way of doing this. The second part, of course, as you can imagine, we're gonna do a lot more. Now. That would be the two ways of scumbling. And with this, I'm just letting my pen basically dance across the screen. The ego entity, it looks slightly different. Now, you can choose which one you like. You may wanna do both them. Practice, of course both of them. But then picking the end one you prefer. We're gonna go back to our apples. We're gonna hide this. We're going to bring our apples back. And of course we got to do some scumbling. Alright, so what we're gonna do if this is this apple, we're going to come from somewhere hidden. I'm on the wrong layer. Good. I got to bring in that Sun. Let's put it on this layer again, right, then where all the nodes are. This one we're gonna do from this site. The second one, we're gonna do bit more creative coat from this way. And the third one, we're gonna go from this side. We've got some nice ones now. And we're going to do them. This one, you're going to scramble circles, scramble this one, this one we're going to just scramble with the little lines. So this is circles, this is with the other technique. And this one is basically what you're going to do here. How let's do something interesting here that's combined to hatching and scumbling. Then you choose whichever scumbling you like because we can combine them all. Let's go back to height this, go back to that first layer. Let's hide these things. Let me show you that you could do that too. Of course. That's a hidden layer again, I gotta go to the right. Well now let's do this one. Another box. They're getting larger. Same one to n. I'm doing it like this now you could perfectly combine these. You get a very interesting effect. Let me show you that. We're going to first Hatchett. Yes, I know I'm doing this very sloppy and very quickly. Makes it kind of playful, doesn't it? There you go. What do you do for the next one, I could add some scumbling good start here, just the width and then create the sense of some texture in it. And then now officially what you can do at the end to further you get to the end, the more your scumbling are gonna get. You could even combine them a little bit. Drawing in some of those circles here. Here too. And further away from the light and mortar are gonna go. So you could combine them very nicely hatching, you could do technically some crosshatching here too, if you wanted to. Right. Now, some people will tell you you cannot combine these various techniques. There are, there are more techniques which we're not gonna go through in this lesson or in this class. Some people will tell you no, you got to strictly keep them apart. I love to mix them and since it's my artwork, I can choose what to do and I'll leave that choice up to you. But I would really combine them because especially in the next in the drawing we're working on, which we'll do later on. Then you see how these nicely combined. But let's continue this first. Alright, so we've cut this so you can do scumbling on its own. You can combine it to create a more interesting effects, can hide this. I'm going to bring back those layers again with my notes. This one, scrambled circles. I'm not gonna do anything with that one. This one combo, this one combined to what we're going to do. I'm going to only do that one. The less the rest I'll leave up to you. So I'm gonna go to that layer with my notes. Let's see where do we have to light? We do have the light from here. That will mean that, let's say that is totally In the lights. This is in darker and the further away we are getting darker. Now the thing with the leaf here, the light comes from there. I will take this part and this part and the stock that would work the other way around that. So here you would go hit, this will be shaded and that will be in the light. I'm going to the layer where I'm actually going to work on. We're going to start with the stock, give it some random Potsdam. Now the rest, the next 11 layer here, and then definitely another layer there. Good. This one. I'm gonna do one layer first, writes a go. And then I'm gonna do my second layer. Make sure I do both layers. Rights. That should work good. Bit on. Some there too. And then on the last one, there we go. And if I hide my notes, I'm getting this apple. And I want some more right there. I can transition this slightly nicer and around the edge here. I might make it really dark. Top there too. And down here they go, see, and that is a bit more there. Then you create, this affects totally different effect. Alright, I'll leave the other two up to you with the scumbling circles and there you go. Do it with both them and the lights are there. So you have to figure out how the lights go. Let me do the arrows with that. Light would shine a bit like this. So I'm sure you can manage that by now. Alright, That would be this step. We're going into, the next step. Of course we are going back to our drawing because we miss the part and I missed a part on purpose. And probably you've figured out, what are we gonna do with it? So let's do that. Alright, let's go to the drawing. Here's the drawing. What we're gonna do next with it. We've missed some parts on purpose. First of all, we're going to bring back what we need to do. As you can imagine what I'm gonna do with this, I'm going to scramble that. And that would look really natural, really nice. So I'm going to scramble the leaves in and now they're looking right away. You will say, Hey, these would look way more like leaves. Then when we do not scramble, Diego, right? We're going to put a few in here too, just to make sure everybody sees that it's not just some empty space. There you go. And let's do, now, go to the darker parts. Let's do this one to making a bit of a circular motions here. This part, we need to go really dark here. Just add a lot of scumbling and what we could do here to make it more dark. We're just going to add one layer of hatching here. Only. At the back. The Heiko pushes behind it. We're gonna do some of it here. Now the bushes stand out from the background a little bit on the top, a little bit around here, but stronger there. Now the apple is not really casting a shadow onto those bushes. They're further away. So of course, there is some shadow and light going on. So we're just adding some more here. It's not drawing too short lines. Alright, good. On this flower, I would say just few dots here and there to make it slightly more interesting and stand out from the rest. A little bit. Few dots who I missed a part here, shaded in right away. Right? That will make it quite interesting. Let me hide dose the layer. Now let's draw the top layer. And there we go. We've got our drawing. Alright, looking at the drawing, let's see. Hip back here. Actually, one to this. A bit better than I had. They go. Now that looks a lot better. Now our drawing is finished. We've got the Apple, we've got all the parts in it. See, this looks really nice with the shadow here. And this is the dark part. Now if you want to have the attention on this part, you could really add another really dark layer, of course. Now the attention goes right there. When you play with the dark and the light. If you go everything really dark and leave some spots really light, then your eyes get drawn to that. If you do it the other way, like him, just leave most of it lighter and then adds something really dark, then your attention goes there too. Alright, W would be the first part. Now if you've done it with drawing, you have a slightly different outlines in mind, but the rest would pretty much look the same. So now we've got some nice light and shadow. We've done it with a pen, but I want to add one thing to read. This is nice, but this is still a digital drawing. So we need to add one layer. Now, wherever that doesn't really matter, we're going to insert a photo. I want to pick one of these free. So you pick that really light layer, you pick the darker layer or pick the feathery light. Let's pick that lighter layer with the mess, little bit of a mess on it. Alright, That's good. It's centers right away. It stretches because it's the same size. But what we need to do is we need to put it under our drawing. There you go. Now, actually, at drawing, looks way more like a drawing. Now what we're gonna do next, I'm going to show you the one I've drawn with a real pen. See if we can get that on there. Slightly like that. Should work. Let's do it like this. There you go, See, that's pretty much the data. The blue is slightly different than this, but that depends on the pen I've used. And there you go. See, this looks if we make it even the same size, Let's do that around this size. You see, hey, this actually looks pretty much like drawing with a pen. And then of course, the whole idea of class to get a drawing, looking like a real drawing, but doing it in Procreate so to, so to some traditional drawing in a few steps. But if you counted well, you've counted now four steps and there's five steps. The next step we're gonna do is the power of three. Alright, Well, sounds interesting. I want to explain all about that in the next lesson. But first I would say create this. Once you've done this, these techniques a little bit. Perfect, that is a huge word, but kept them a bit going. And move to the next lesson. And I'll see you there. 6. The Power of 3: We're on the last step, step five, the power of three. Now, perhaps you have already figured out from the brushes what the power of free will be. If not, I'm going to explain all about that. We've done now the drawing with that ballpoint pen in one size. And it looks pretty nice. But we can enhance this and make it look even more pretty. And that's where we're going to use the power of three. So let me show you how that works. Alright, we've got that drawing here. And what we need to do is let's see, I'm going to get rid of the drawing. We're going to need a new sheet with apples. We can do it actually on the original one with the, we can do it on this one word, tea apples. And what we're gonna do is we're going to just hide everything, bring back that layer, Diego with the apples, and add a layer on top of it wherever. That doesn't really matter. What we're gonna do next is I'm going to change colors. I'm going to go to a black pen. Now, we're gonna go to the pen black. And I'm going to leave the ballpoint pen behind and we're going to go to D. Fine liners. What we're gonna do, we're gonna use these free, fine, medium and bolts. And I'm going to show you what we're gonna do. We're gonna start with the bold one. I'm going to show you first of all, the simple way to accomplish the power of three. Now, what we need first of all, of course, is on this layer we need an extra layer. Let's put a layer above it. We need to determine where our sun comes from. What I'm gonna do if this one I'm going to make it really easy. Some from here, move this up a level. Let's say who has Bolsa de hang on, that's not going well, let's let's take let's take a different color for that. Otherwise, we're going to get a real mess. And let's just go with define for that for now, calling for the fine I'm just drawing in how I want my shadow. So with the fine blue, I want this here. I want this around is another one. It's right there. I think I want this I want this on all of them. Yeah. So basically what I'm gonna do is I'm going to copy this layer. That is not copying this layer without was taught to me, duplicating it, moving it to the other Apple. Diego. I'm gonna do this again, duplicating it, moving it. Don't just want to move it, right. The next thing is, I'm going to merge all of these. Merge Down, merge down, duplicate them again. Now we're going to move down here. See, that's pretty okay. Well, the only thing is I'm going to erase this one, need only five of them. Good. The other four. I'll leave that up to you later on. Alright, so i now determined by light shadow, I'm going to use the same. Now I'm gonna go back to that layer. I'm going to pick the black and I'm going to actually pick doublet one. Now, the first thing, what I'm gonna do if they're both one is duty outline. I'm going to make a really bold outline. And as you can see, that is quite a nice bold outline and produce. You can see this looks more like a fine liner pen we used. Alright. Now, the next thing, what we have done so far is hatched distant groups with the same thickness. We're not gonna do that actually. We're gonna go one step lower. We're going to go to the medium pen, and we're going to do our first application of shading with the medium pen. Now you get a very interesting, as you can see, a very interesting idea. And we've got our first application. What we're gonna do next, we're gonna go to even define pen. And with the fine pen we're going to do That's one in-between. And you get nice fine lines. Now, in-between the ego and the last part here, I'm actually going to hatch with that fine layer, the fine, fine liner. And there you go. Now, I'm not going to do dose. Dose leaves. I'm only there for now. I'll let you play with those. Maybe perhaps with this fine line. Give this a little bit of shadow there. Now, now I'm going to have height tells leaves on it. Let me merge those layers by the way. There you go. Now, probably, as you can see, this looks really totally different from the previous one. And this is the power of free, where you get to play with three thicknesses and play with a little bit. You can do this a different way to bring back that. I'm gonna go to the bold one again. I'm going to do my apple again. There you go. But use the power of free, slightly different. I'm going to go to that. Oh, I'm going to get on the wrong layer. That's not going well, so it's the wrong way. Yeah. Oh, I got to correct that. Let's do that again. I'm gonna do that again on the right layer on this one. Now I'm doing only the apple for this example. There you go. I'm going to swap to that medium pen, but what I'm gonna do with that medium pen, the medium pen is not going all the way. So the medium pen is only going right there. That's with the medium pen. And what I'm going to do now, we're gonna go to the fine pen. And with the fine pen, I'm going to do everything to make it a bit smaller. Hugo. And amides. Crosshatched dish here with the fine pen and get a mix of the fine and the fig. You could do this with the bold 12. Now, if I hide my drawing now, you get this does looks totally different, totally different way of shading the power of free. So starting with the bolt for the outline, then going to the medium, then going to define are starting with the bolt, then going through the medium than going for the fine. And that's the way you can do this. Now, of course you can swap this totally round to if you wanted to. And we're going, we're having the final ready, we're bringing back that layer. But we're going to do now is I'm going to go with a nice fine outline. Making nice delicate outlines like this. There you go. Now switching to the medium pen, adding my first application of shadow. So we're having these nice thin outlines, if suddenly a lot thicker shadow. Let's do a second application with the same one. There you go. But for the third, let's take them both pen and do shadow right there with the bolts pen. To make it even stronger, Let's add an extra line there. Height that Chet, that shadow, that example. There you get the total, the different way around. We're having a few ways you can play with these pens and you can make use of the thickness. And this looks a lot different than when you only use one thickness. Now you can bring in really delicate part. You can bring in really thick part for strong shadows and you can play with it a little bit. Now, technically, of course, what you could also do is let's do it then the last one, let's do it properly. You can start with the medium fine liner. Duty outline with your medium fine liner. Or why am I doing the whole thing? I only need the Apple actually. Go medium. Now, take that fine, fine liner to that first layer. I'm gonna do that second layer with this same one to get a bit of a nice transition between the thick and thin. And now I'm going to have really bought one. And the last part I'm hatching in. Now, this hatching is getting pretty dark already. Let's hide that. And you get this idea and this looks pretty good too soon from a bolt, from a medium, going to find, then going to a bolt. Now, it doesn't always to do this. Of course you could do go from fine to bolt to medium, although you wouldn't probably see that that much. We could swap this around. That's the last thing we could do that start with define one again. Let's bring back that layer. So we're gonna go for, Let's not do the final one. All on. Let's go for a medium one day you go. I wanted that. See if we can see this, then go for the bold one to make some nice bold lines in it. Alright. Now we're gonna go to that really fine one at those thin layers. And as you can see, probably this will not be the best one. Crosshair dish, one might add a few more layers in-between here. This kind of working but not the best. Alright, let's hide that one. And then you have the last one. You could do the shadows with really thick and then go to the fin. Although that doesn't work as well as with this one, it is getting lost. The fin gets lost. Its various ways to do that. And you have a choice, of course, you can pick whichever way you want this, the power of free. You can go from thin to thick, or from thick to thin, or mix them up, go from thick to thin and then go back to medium. Is you gotta few ways of doing this. That's the power of three. And actually, that looks a lot more interesting than using only one thickness. Now, that works one thickness if you only have one penny, we don't want to play with the thickness. You can do pretty things with it as we've done in the previous lessons. But if you add the power of free, you get something way more interesting. Let's go to our drawing. Yes, Let's do the drawing to get the full scope of this. Alright, we need a new drawing for that, of course. And I'm not sure what I'm opening now. We have this one. Now that is blue. We don't want that. You could, you could do it with the pen of, you could do this too with these pens. Of course, these ballpoint pens. You could do it too. But I wanted to stick to the black now and use the fine lines to get a totally different effect. So what I'm gonna do, hopefully going back, i'm, I'm going to duplicate this one. Since I haven't drawn on only have done one layer on that. I'm going to throw clear, oh, I've done that on the actual layer and that's not clever, right? So I'm going to throw this layer actually way. Clear it, right? I'm going to bring in that photo. There you go. That is not the right size. You need to resize that again. Right? I think I'm pretty much okay with this. There you go. Now I'm moving a new layer on top of it. What we're gonna do first, I'm going to decide what to do and we're going to go from thick to thin or D all the way around. Let me make that choice. And of course the choice is up to you which you want to play with. I'm going to go from thick work my way back to fin. The first thing is I'm going to of course, get this whole thing done. I'm speeding that up. Okay, that's that. I'm done with that. Now the next thing is, of course, I need to start shading with it using the power of three. So we're gonna do that. I'm going to end up with something really pretty. Okay, let's do that. Alright, let's get rid of the sketch. I want to do that. First of all, what I'm gonna do is I'm going to use exactly the same pattern as I've done on the previous one. So the same way of shading it. So what I'm gonna do if that making myself really easy, going back to the gallery, going back to the one I finished already. Looking nicer, Isn't it? I really like it. See the top is my shading. I'm going to say copy that layer. Copy. All as well. Procreate will remember this. I'm going to tap the wrench, say paste, paste. And there you go. That's probably not totally perfect since minus slightly thicker, thinner or whatever. But I would say this pretty much works for me. Yeah, this this does work for me. Now I've got an idea where to go with my shadow. And I'm going to keep that a little bit. The same might end up slightly at some different places like here. I got to move this a little bit like this. Probably. There you go. That's better. Let's leave it like that. There you go. Now this is more accurate. Think my destroying a slightly smaller than the other ones. So I'll make my shading slightly smaller to write that down would work, that would work fine. Alright, good. And now I've got a little bit of a guide where I want to go with my shading. You can see to the next thing, what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna swap, of course pens. I'm going to add a new layer on top of my original drawing. I'm going to swap pens. I'm going to go through that medium and I'm going to do my medium shadow with the scumbling. I can start right away. I know I want scumbling here. And I'm just doing actually the first layer on some there too. This pen. Here you go. I don't know. I'm going to do that layer here while I'm on it. Now. I'm gonna do my grass first. Now let's do level. It makes that copying and pasting a little bit easier. Let's go to the fine pen. I'm gonna do my grasp. And what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna actually do my grass totally with the fine pen to get a really cool effect. Let me shade that in first. And they go same as with the other one. And you can see the effect right away from that thick, thin contrast. That looks really good. Let's see. I'm going to shade this one only at the end. And then here I'm going to go the opposite way. From here, I'm turning that around, go the opposite way. So you can see way more easy that we're talking about different parts here. Good. Then I want to shade this one the opposite way again. And the next bit that would be, let's say this one is conflicting. So I'm gonna go this way. Here. They go. And with this one, I'm only going to do that, right. Good. I didn't do that. Bottom line. Not a big issue. This one I **** dumb like this. So this one, I'm gonna do the opposite way again to create even more contrast. And we can keep this one the same way. That's okay. This one I'm going to shade. That way. They're a bit more. This one shade like this. You can see a bit straight. This one we're going to go the other way. There you go. Then this one will go in the opposite way again. And then the last one, or this one, we need some more. This one we're going go see and now we'll create an interesting effect between the thick and thin. Now this part, I'm going to oh, that's not select. I really need Select. Going to select. And that is the easy to do that first or that the selection gets easy. I'm going to say here, copy, I'm going to say paste. And then I want to move it to its right position. Zoom in a little bit. That should fit them up like that. Only thing which is kinda weird is now this one didn't totally work. So I need to redoing this one that didn't work with the copying. This one is not nice either. The rest looks pretty okay. I need a smaller one. Erase them a little bit. What I've gone outside, the ego didn't work totally this time in it. They go. Alright, let's get that pen again. This needs to be shaded now like that. And this one we had shaded like this. Okay, Not good. That looks good. Alright, merge this one. That layer merge. Let's see down here versus down. Now there's one shading. Good. Now I can continue with the medium, medium pen again, going back to the medium, do my scumbling on here. Just a little bit of scumbling in-between my first layer. Now, picking that fine pen, continue if the scumbling, and then they'll go, Well, let's zoom in a little bit so we can see what we're doing. Scrambled this a bit better, right in there too. And then with scumbling, we could have done the other way round. Started with the really small one and then go into the fake one. I'm going to add some right here to 40 Effect Texture. Okay, good. And we need to do this one. We're not touching this one. Slightly down there. Okay. Alright, that looks good. I think you probably agree with me that this looks a lot different than the previous one, right? We need to get back to the medium one and the West shading. Let's go for the branch. The first application of shading on the branch, this continues. And then we're having some shading right there. Let's go for the apple to them. Let's create a little bit of contrast with the APA. The leaf we're going to do with define. And yeah, let's do the apple now. I'm not like this is good or no, no, the other way around. Let's do the other way around to create contrast with the branch to Good. There you go. Let's see, um, let's do these dish or no, we're not doing with this, we're going to do with the thick, right? And this one too. Then we're creating a little bit of contrast between the grass and the flower. Could do this with thin tube. Let's go with the medium. For really thick here. This needs to be shaded. And this one definitely needs some shading. There you go. Now let's do this one here. We're gonna do with the medium, crosshatch with the medium to really get something thick. Let's add a few more lines over it. Then I need to go this way. And what we're gonna do with this part here, Let's do that right away. Go to the fin. One. Adds nice thin lines. To get the maximum contrast. Look at that, see an Aldo on really catches the attention. Alright, I've got the thin ones. So let's do the apple with the thin one. This layer with the thin one. And then I can turn this somehow. You go cross edge this. All right, looking good. And while we're on it, Let's do this one. And there you go. Let's stop here. Let's do this back part. A bit of cross hatching. They go on around the bottom here. Just add a little bit more shadow. There you go. Good. Alright, back to the medium. We're almost there and we were definitely almost there. Okay. Let's not do this one apart. Let's take this one with the tree. We're gonna do the tree. See, we've done this one like this sort of three we're gonna do like this. Let's do this in one go. This is tricky part. Zoom in a little bit to get the idea where I'm going. They go. There we go. Alright, that's that. We need. Some better there. Okay, good looking, good. Okay, Good. Now we're gonna go to define one. Let's do the shadow here, an extra line with the fine one. And now cross hatch she had with the fine line with more delicate shadow. Good. And here we're going to need extra shadow line here to add a little bit down there. Let's go for some crosshatching here at the back. Okay, and now I need some won some cross hatching back here too. And now I noticed I missed a whole part. Let's go back to the medium. We've done. This way. It's hatched it in with the medium. Slightly there too, right? That looks dumbbell. And let's go for the fine. That looks better. There we go. Now we get some nice contrast. Now, let's see. We've got this, we've got that. We've got this. The only thing I want here is the branch that's gifted. Some shadow. Cross hatches a little bit so that it's casting a little bit of shadow. Now let's move those extras and let's take a look at the drawing. Oh, look at that a little bit here. I think that's some scumbling here. Then get that a bit more better. Alright, Good. There you go. That looks pretty nice, doesn't it? Thin lines up there. Let's do a couple of good. And now we're having quite an interesting drawing. Now, our drawing is more or less done. That since we're working with a really fine PEN, we could add some extra details now, which I wouldn't do when I would use a regular one pen. But for this one, I would definitely do it. So let me show you what I'm what I'm gonna do. On the tree. We could bring in some of those things there are in the tree. Just some extra to make it even more lifelike. And what I mean, It's just some lines like that here too. That is outside of where I want to go to make it look like. Even there, Well, we haven't done anything. Let's do that. That creates quite an interest. Let's move this around. I'm going to add some here too. The nice thing about Procreate is I can really zoom in and create a few there, add a line there. And as you can see, I forgot totally this one. So let me add that shadow here. Let me get this one in full shadow. And let me do this one too. Medium. Let's see, right, there's the Apple back. Oh no, I wanted to do that with a thin pen. I said, right now I remember. So that means I want to do this shadow a bit thicker and this one really thin, bit thicker there and there you go. Hide this. And now I think I'm pretty much done. Now I'm going to erase just a few things here. Right? That doesn't look good, does it? Not? That's better. And this line is going over there. We don't want that to happen. And there is our drawing. Looking good now. Now we're gonna do it at final step, the same we did with the previous one. We're going to add that paper texture to create a great effect and make it really look like as if we've drawn this on paper. Let's go with that last step. Alright, let's add the paper I'm somewhere on a layer, doesn't matter. We can move layers around. Want to tap the wrench, say insert a photo, I'm going to get that colored paper. That's going to look really good. Tap the layer. I want to get this under my drawing. And there you go. Now it is complete. Look at that. That looks really beautiful, Doesn't it? As if I've drawn this actually with a fine liner, just the paper texture, just to create a bit of an effect or actually fool people a little bit. If you post this, don't say, you've done this with Procreate. I think a lot of people will fall for it, especially if you put that second one with it. This one, get a carousel on Instagram or something like that. That would be very interesting. Now as you can see, it is quite different from this. This is a real pen. This is more like a pen drawing. This is a fine liner drawing. And making use of these nice fine lines, making use of the power of free. And that concludes this lesson. Now we've done all the steps, the five steps to create a pen drawing in Procreate fine liners with a ballpoint pen, created some very interesting drawing, some interesting effects, some interesting ways to do this. Well, we've explored the five steps, but I want to give you a little bit of a challenge in the next video. So I'll see you there. 7. The Project: For the project, I want to give you a challenge. We started with pen drawings in five easy steps. And at the end, I demonstrated the power of free, but I only really did it in one way. Now there's several ways you can choose from, as I've shown in the lesson. And I will challenge you to pick a different way and play a little bit with that too. Now, you can use the same drawing. You can pick another drawing of yourself to practice that. I would say, keep on going with this. Of course, show us the result. I would love to see all the results you've done in the art class post dose. But also if you're going to continue with it, I would love to see what you are creating with these five steps, putting them into practice, and make sure you follow me here on Skillshare to then you get notified whenever I post a new class and you can just dive right into it if you want to discover some more on Procreate or traditional art. Yeah, I'm doing both here on skill share and check out my profile and all the other classes. But it also would recommend you to go to my website and if false, well, that is now appearing here my website because I've got some new Procreate things that will not come here on Skillshare there too, especially a great set of brushes I've created recently, and they are available on my website with some in-depth tutorials, even how to use them. Some great brushes if you like these brushes and if you don't, my other Skillshare classes and loved those brushes too, I've created a lot more and are available on my website. I would say check out my website too. And thank you for being with me in this class. I hope you just picked up some great new skills to start going with ink drawings in Procreate.
