Choosing Between an Artist’s Touch and a Procreate Inking Brush Set Free
What is Procreate? Is Procreate an actual product that you can buy or rent? Or is it just an online service offered by manufacturer Fisher and Paykel? We are going to take a quick look into these questions to help you make your buying decision.
What is Procreate anyway? Fisher and Paykel have developed a top 20 application that allows users to create a beautiful and artistic picture with their Apple iPad. The free drawing app offers many tools, such as a grid editor and eraser. If you need a little bit of help you can also purchase an “interactive” brush. Unfortunately, as of this writing, the latest version of the free version of Procreate has been removed from the Apple Store. So we are left with the new version Procreate 2.0 which is also free, has all of the same features as its older brother, and is available through the iTunes store for free.
So what makes Procreate so great? There really aren’t any major differences between this product and any of the other programs currently on the market for the Apple iPad. The most unique feature of Procreate is its watercolor paint mode. Although many programs provide this feature, they tend to be rather expensive and aren’t always worth your money, especially if you use the watercolor paint often.
If you’re looking for a way to get your drawings onto paper or canvas quickly and inexpensively, without sacrificing quality or creativity, then the best procreate brushes are probably going to be Procreate itself. Although other software packages can sometimes be useful when you need to do some elaborate illustrations or drawings, there are times when it’s just not practical to use these other packages. For example, when you’re doing a book illustration or commercial job, most people don’t have a lot of extra space to accommodate several hundred illustrations, so using the free clipart packages available on the market may not be practical. Plus, when you are drawing or painting with Procreate, you will always be faced with the problem of where to store all those individual pictures and illustrations once the project is completed.
You should think carefully about what you will be using your Procreate brush for before you choose a Procreate pen inking painting brush pack. Will you be doing a lot of freehand drawings or detailed Illustrations? Are you going to be using a Procreate drawing program? These are things that you need to think about before you go out and buy a package of brushes.
Another thing that you should think about before buying a Procreate pen inking brush kit is how well each of the tool kits will help you with your particular purposes. The most helpful tools include a basic pencil inking setup, pressure sensitive paper templates, and a variety of basic shapes for you to practice on. If none of these items are a good match for what you are trying to accomplish, then it may be best just to skip the kit and try to come up with your own solution. As long as the individual tools in your kit are great choices, you should have no trouble getting the job done.
