hello hello welcome to another little procreate video I know how much you guys
enjoy these so today I am going to design and show you how I created this
little room illustration so I initially learned this from a Skillshare tutorial
which I will leave linked in the description I've worked with them in the
past but this video isn't sponsored but if you want two months free click that
link go for it so yeah without further ado let's get straight into this video
so I have collected a number of images from Pinterest and I came across this
one which I really like the look of so all I'm doing is I'm going in with a
basic HP pencil which came with procreate and I'm gonna do a very very
rough sketch of sort of a room layout so what I learned was kind of using
different levels so to try and make sure things weren't lined up too much so as
you can see I'm sort of mirroring the idea of the room but changing things so
I downloaded the little what is this a bedside table and and then I switched up
a couple of things on the shelf and as you can see it's very messy at this
point there's no need to be neat at all when you are doing the sketch that's
what sketches are for and so yeah I sort of added a few bits added some pom-poms
a cushion and now I'm lowering the opacity a little bit and what I'm doing
is turning on the drawing guide and then changing the grid size just so I've got
some sort of straight straight lines to go off and I find it a lot easier to do
flat images rather than like messing around with perspective but I guess
practice makes perfect maybe I'll do one of those videos one day and so now I'm
on to the Narinder pencil which is a little bit thicker a little bit more
solid you'll see that it's darker when I'm drawing it so all I did was create a
new layer above the initial sketch layer and what I've done is turned on
something called assisted drawing or drawing assist I think I always get
that the wrong way around but basically drawing assist means that you
can only draw in straight lines so you know in chess there's some pieces that
only go straight think of it like that drawing assist is like chess I don't
play chess though so yeah what I'm doing here is basically just doing all the pieces
that have straight lines in it because whilst I had that layer set in that
mode I thought why not so I'm just kind of going along then I didn't want
straight lines as I've created another new layer and we're going to just play
around with the other parts so yeah I just said that and I turned drawing
assist back on let's just pretend I know what I'm talking about yeah
straight lines drew the books oh I remember I did this so I could go
back in and erase the photo frame behind the books you'll see in a second once
I've done drawing the bed that I like to erase things the more layers the better
usually because if you make a mistake or if you want to move any objects around
you can without it like messing up the whole image so yeah at this point I'm
just doing some straight lines clicking and holding doing the little rug on the
bottom I don't know when I go back up to these books am I going to go back up I'm
merging the layers together and I think I'm about to arrange it come on are you
gonna do it yeah there we go that's why I did an extra layer so I could
erase the photo frame behind it to sort of gather the inspiration inspiration
not what I meant and but yeah if you are wanting a more in-depth tutorial of
something like this or the basics of procreate this video is probably not for
you because obviously I have sped it up and I'm sort of brushing past a lot of
stuff but I do have a lot of other videos that involve me talking about the
different tools and shortcuts and things that can make your process a lot easier
so I will leave a link to all my procreate tutorials in the description
and on the screen now so if you want to add that to your watchlist you can
but yeah what I'm doing here is drawing the plant pot and where there's anything
that's sort of symmetrical I'll usually copy the shape over yes I'll show you
that in a second but once I've done the little like
circle part of this watering can which by the way I want a watering can like
this does anyone know where I can get one because I think that would look
super cute in my office and maybe that would be a good excuse for my plants not
dying if I actually have a watering can that I want to keep on my shelf but yeah
if you are enjoying this video please don't forget to subscribe if you aren't
already and join my little creative family I would love to have you
listening to my rambles more than just this one video and so yeah right I have
now moved on to the shelf as you can see so I'm just sketching things out again
doing the light bulb a really cool little tip in procreate is to click and
hold when you draw a shape and it's sort of morphs it into a more streamline
shape you can see here that I'm drawing lines reflecting them over and then
completing it myself just to save me trying to like perfectly match up the
angles a nice little scribble for the plants I was like toying around with
ideas for the headboard if you look at the photo you can see that it's sort of
like curved and it was quite hard to draw so I'd like ignored that and went
back to it I also changed the pillows and sort of improvised with these like
bed spoke things well yeah I add them all on different layers and join them
together added a cute little pom-pom cushion you know we love it
and then I'm going in and drawing the plant on the right hand side I find plant
drawing so difficult I don't know why does anyone else I'm still like learning
the art of this and I decided to change the plant that was in the original image
and I found another on Pinterest I think this could be a plastic plant but
they're my kind of plants and so yeah I just sort of replicated that kind of
mismatched loads of the images together and made my
own little scene so it wasn't like an exact replica of the original alright
onto the color so what I'm doing is filling the entire background with the
wall color color Wow I love being able to speak and then I'm
doing another fill then filling it with a different lighter shade and
dragging that down and you'll see that I'll do the same for the skirting board
so I will fill it with white and then drag it down and then we'll go in to do
the actual objects I like to do the background first just so I've got a nice
base to start with and this color palette by the way I just
grabbed from Pinterest again if you head to my Pinterest I actually have a board
on there that's all to do with color palettes and I've just sort of collected
a bunch of different color palettes that other people have made I like the look
of and then usually I'm able to find one so I just sort of found them and saved
them in my swatch panel on the bottom row and there we have it I just kind of
kept picking colors up from that rack so we've got the background and I can't
remember what I'm doing first maybe the rug do I do the rug first can you tell I
drew this like a couple of days ago before recording this voiceover but what
I've done is changed to the mono line pen so again just a basic pen that comes
with procreate and as you can see I'm creating a new layer for every single
color that is super super important at this stage so the bedsheets have got a
new layer the pillows have got a layer and the headboard thing has got a layer
every single bit of this image has a different layer now so yeah I'm just
drawing around everything I'm turning on and off drawing assist because
sometimes I want straight lines sometimes I don't using the eraser tool
and just literally going round and outline and everything I quite liked how
I did this light bulb in the end I've never drawn a light bulb actually I very
rarely have drawn room drawings this is like my second proper go at them and
so there are things that could improve on this and there are definitely people
out there that can do these a lot better but I feel like these are a good kind of
start point to learn it for yourself and I didn't have any confidence in drawing
rooms until I sort of followed the tutorial so yeah thanks for that
tutorial like I said I will leave that linked in the description but what I'm
doing now is copying and pasting the pom-poms duplicate is your friend
you can draw things and duplicate it and use it for other parts to see if you're
doing it I do exactly the same with this leg you'll see that I fill it in and
then I'm copying it flipping it over and moving it across which just saves me
having to try and draw it again and yeah so this is you'll see that
I'm gonna add different elements to it and I ended up drawing little details
on the doorknobs and all that kind of jazz so I'm going to speed this up a
little bit and I'll get back to you in a second
all right so we have everything colored in pretty much so now what I'm doing is
creating a clipping mask so I'm not gonna go into clipping masks I'm sure
there's a lot of tutorials out there but all I'm doing is creating a clipping
mask to draw over different objects so I decided I wanted the rug to have some
sort of pattern to it so I went for this super simple like line pattern thing and
because it's on a clipping mask it means it stays within the outline of the rug
probably really confused you there I've confused myself so yeah definitely
Google that if you want to have a look at how to do clipping masks they are
time-saving and great and definitely something to look into if you want to
get serious about drawing and procreate and stuff so yeah I did the lines and
then I kind of go in and out of the image you'll see me scrolling I'm now
doing the plant part which I actually changed the color of in the end and the
pattern I made that layer a clipping mask and then tried to decide what on
earth pattern what on earth to do in it I don't know I went back and forth with
this a lot changing the brush tool and I think in the end I went to like this
weird squiggly thing I can't really remember but yeah as you can see because
the clipping mask is on it sort of stays within the lines and I sort of gave up
with that so we're moving on and so yeah again clipping masks from the leaves I
changed my brush at this point to the studio pen tool I love that tool a lot
again it's just a basic procreate brush it came with the app I have very few
downloaded brushes because I am lazy so you can definitely draw like cool things
with the basic ones you don't have to pay loads of money for it and a lot of
people actually ask me is procreate worth it and I 1000% say yes it cost me
I think $9.99 I'm not sure if the price has
changed but that is so affordable especially when you compare it to other
applications like adobe illustrator and photoshop obviously this doesn't have
all the capabilities of those two apps but procreate honestly is just great for
drawing and think it's fun and for a tenner you
can't really go wrong so yeah whilst I've been babbling along you can see
that I've added details there's some details on the cushions and I feel like
with these drawings the more details you add the more realistic it looks so I'm
drawing on the books I've added some dots to the plant part the photo frame
the little throw on the end of the bed has now got some Criss crosses on it
you'll see when I zoom out and yeah I actually went in as well and added some
texture so you'll see I'm trying to pick a brush I added texture on the bed in I
added texture on the wall on the plant pot that I keep changing the color of
it and then inserted some text to do this print I was trying to like mirror
my own print if you don't follow my print shop I have a little stationery
shop I ship worldwide and I sell really cute prints I'm biased but I think
they're cute and you guys seem to think they are too so definitely check out my
print shop it'll also be linked in the description but yet you can kinda see
the texture on the wall now I've zoomed in a little bit just to kind of break
things up and add a bit of differentiation
while that was big-word between the furniture and the wall so yeah going all
out with the detail I added this which is kind of constellations very rough
badly drawn ones but they're there that's all that matters
added a few pom-poms and that is the drawing finished so I think if I spent
more time on this I could definitely improve it as with everything but I'm
really happy with how this turned out to say that it was one of my very first
ones and yeah I hope you enjoyed this video I hope you've learned something
from it don't forget to check out the links in the description for more videos
and more information about me and ya thanks for listening to me babble on
I'll see you soon
