Turn Your Drawings into Repeat Pattern Tiles!
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 10. 2022
- Since learning how to make repeat patterns, I’ve gone on to create them for clients like Nickelodeon and GT Bicycles.
When I first learned how to make a seamless pattern with my illustrations it felt like magic. It always seemed super complicated until I discovered how it works. Back then there wasn't an easy way to do it quickly. In this video, I'll show you two easy ways to make a repeatable tile that you can use to make fabric, wallpaper, a background for a website, or anything else you might want a pattern for.
The first technique requires Adobe Photoshop, the second technique uses Adobe Fresco on an iPad.
Also, you can win my iPad case featuring my pattern!

🧙🏼great video! So great to see a pattern tutorial that didn't involve flowers!
Haha thank you!
Hahaha best comment ever 😂
Whoop whoop! Another awesome video! And right on time! Really been curious about patterns lately! Thanks for this 😁🤙🍻
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
🧙 Thanks so much for the fun and detailed tutorials!

🧙♂️Just found your channel, and I love your style and content! You’ve helped me so much with Fresco already. Thank you.
So glad to hear! Thank you!
🧙♀️ just discovered your channel and I’m loving it! Working on improving my vector art skills these days and Adobe Fresco seems like a real game changer. Thank you for all the videos!
Thanks so much! Glad you’re enjoying it!!
Another Great Tutorial Chris! 🧙♂
Thanks so much!
Loved the video - all the way to the end 🧙♂️
Thank you so much!
🧙♂️ great vid as always!
🧙♂️love the pacing of the videos and the dry wit. Also super informative. I bought Procreate after being and Adobe CC guys for years. I opened the app once or twice, but by that time I’d already gotten used to Fresco. 🤣🤣
Thanks so much! Glad you found it informative.
I’m new to your channel. I’ve had fresco downloaded on my iPad for months and you are very quickly getting me to convert over from procreate…. Also, I watch your videos all the way through and I play your old streams while I work. You’re chill.
I'm so glad! Thank you !! 😊
Love it, Chris! Learned something new and totally enjoyed how you filled in the spaces! Yellow fart! 🧙♂️Wiz Dropped!
Thanks so much!!
Less is more, but sometimes...SOMETIMES...MORE is....Betterer. Magnificent. I'm learning a lot...thanx.
Thanks so much!
🧙🏻♀️ enjoying your vids!
Yer a wizard, Chris! ⚡
Thank you so much!!
Nice tutorial Chris!! Thanks ;)
Thank you!
Another awesome tutorial! Really liking your channel. Happy you started one. 😍👍 also where did you order your custom iPad case?
Thanks so much! The case is from Society6.
🧙♂💨 Good tutorial. I do use the new(ish) built in pattern preview on the desktop version of PS, but the old offset method method results tend to be better. One of these years I'll have to time to really dig in and learn Fresco. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I like having the control of this manual-ish way of doing it. But to be honest I completely forgot about the built in pattern tool.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
thanks for the help
No problem!
This is awesome 😎
Thank you!
Love it. You're a fresco 🧙♂
Haha thank you!
Love the looong videos! Lol 🧙♀️
I dropped you a wiz! Ha!
Yesss thxxxx
Great videos. Thanks for making your videos. Do you recommend any companies where you have the patterns printed onto? Like the case you did for the giveaway? It looks like good quality-I’ve found a number of print on demand places are low quality products. Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks so much! This case was done by Society6. I’ve had pretty good luck with them over the years.
🧙 Great videos Thanks. I'd Better get back to drawing.
Fala Chris!!!!... Sou Anderson Sales, Brasil, Rio de Janeiro!!!! parabéns pelo conteúdo!!! gostaria que continuasse a produzir videos para o Fresco!!! você, seu carisma, didática e carinho são muito cativantes amigo!. abraços e sucesso!!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!!
🧙🏽 awesome content
Thank you so much!
🧙♂️ thanks for the video
🤩thanks Amy!
Bruh... the day i leave my ipad at home i watch this magic lololol im dying to try it!
Hah patterns are a lot of fun!
I’m late but thanks for the info.. I’ve been using procreate but curious about fresco and strictly repeat patterns. Are hairlines ever an issue? I know it took me a while to figure out how to prevent them in procreate and photoshop.
If you do them with export to capture there definitely isn’t any because it generates an actual pattern tile.
Wizard 🧙🏼♂️this may be one of the most entertaining Fresco CZcams offerings…keep up the good work. Is there any way you could demo the new 2023 improvements to Fresco? Just one of those other reasons to go pro with the App.
Thanks! Fresco updates every 6 weeks, but I guess I could do a video about all the updates that have happened so far in 2023. I’ll see if I can find an easy way to find out what they all are.
“Where there’s a butt, there’s a fart”. You made me laugh when you said that, as I was driving in my car at the time, funny Funny FUNNY.!!😂 I’ll never look at people the same again, lol. Also, Thanks for making this video. Thanks for the great info you are sharing, it’s so very helpful👍👍👍
Hahah glad you liked that… and the actual info!
Toot particles = farticles? Another great tutorial. Thanks, Chris!
Yes! Thank you!
Hey man, i was wandering if you use the illustrator pattern tool for any of your work?
Hi, I actually have never messed around with that, mainly because I really only use illustrator to clean up my vector files from Fresco if I have to send them to a client.
Do you have to use photoshop or can you dice up the drawing and switch it from left to right, fill in, then top and bottom, fill in again all on Fresco?
You can definitely dice it it up in Fresco. To make it easier you’d want to use the touch modifier with the transform + nudge tools. I talk about it in my last video about the Touch Modifier.
You are wrong. A maximum of 1 part of the divided worm survives. They twist and look alive, but the buttocks can't form a new mouth. So please be careful. Thank you and love.
Thanks for letting me know.
“You are wrong.” lol blunt but ok.
Be very very careful!!!!
great video but how do we now use this in fresco, its not showing up in the shapes panel
Thanks! I think you’re referring to the capture pattern part? If so, you go to Publish/Export in Fresco and then choose ‘capture pattern’.
🧙♂️thanks
🧙🏼🧙🏼🧙🏼 Thanks
You’re welcome 😊🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕
How can you hate a fish!!! Lol 🇦🇺❤️
Lol
I only have photoshop on the iPad so I don’t think I have the ability to make the pattern like you did due to the PS iPad version being a flop.
Hmm it seems like it’s getting updated all the time so maybe they’ll add it soon?
I know it's a few months late but I've only just discovered your channel (you can thank Kyle T Webster for that)... anyway... 🧙✨
Well thank you so much!! ❤️
this vector will be in raster not vectors, so wher are u sell it?
I’m not sure what you are saying about vector vs raster. I didn’t make this in vector, it’s all raster.
I have this pattern available on some products here: society6.com/art/closer7366974
How did you pull those saved little images; or bring new tile into that file?
Thanks for the question Amy. When you choose the pattern option on the export menu it pulls up a window with your different layers and you select the ones you want to use for your pattern. Those drawings were each in separate layers.
Maybe I just don't know Image Capture...
I think if you go back to that part of the video and rewatch I think it will *hopefully* be clear. Fresco automatically launches Adobe Capture and lets you pull in your artwork.
Just a feedback, Video volume is very low while you were explaining fresco. Also Love your content
Thank you, this is a really old video where I was stilling learning a lot. I guess I still am, but very much so here!
How come you only use 72dpi for this?
DPI is irrelevant when working in pixel dimensions because DPI relates to how many pixels are in an inch. If you are specifying pixel dimensions than that is how many pixels will be in your document. For example, 3000 x 3000 pixels will still be 3000 x 3000 pixels whether it's 72dpi or 300dpi because we are not setting any dimensions in inches. If the file was set up at 10 x 10in at 300dpi the file would be 3000 x 3000 pixels. If we put it at 72dpi, then it would only be 720 x 720 pixels-so when working in a physical/print dimension that's when DPI is very important.
The reason I used pixel dimensions for this demo is because the Photoshop tool that splits up the tile requires you to input pixel dimensions-so starting that way just made it a bit less confusing for the demo.
Couple of questions...
1. Why 72 dpi? Shouldn't it be 300 if it will ever go to print?
2. Once you go from Fresco to PS, does it convert everything to raster? Or can PS at least retain vector info so when you go back to Fresco it's still vector?
(I asked these while watching so I didn't forget. I'll edit if you address those later in the video lol.)
DPI is only relevant when working in inches. Since I am working at a specific pixel dimension the amount of pixels is defined by that. 4000 pixels by 4000 pixels is the same size whether it's 72dpi or 3000dpi. A 10x10in image set to 300dpi would be 3000 x 3000 pixels. I explain it in detail in this video czcams.com/video/njRuEjBGU2Q/video.htmlsi=uKtH_Bnzw_pwYOgc
When you open up vector art in PS it becomes a smart object that remains vector.
@@chris-piascik thanks! I guess I never really realized that because with my photography work I'm always working with images that are in inches. But that's interesting though because anytime I'd resize for web posting I'd always resize the dimensions (inches) but also the dpi to 72, because every article I ever read said 72 for web resolution. I know it made a big difference on file size.
Thanks for the smart object info! I thought that may be the case but I have yet to swap programs like that. I figured it would have to retain the vector info though, otherwise that would defeat the purpose of switching back to Fresco.
On another note, I can't seem to tell Fresco to open in Ai and actually have it open over there. Or even be accessible to open in Ai manually at all. I know Adobe has gone away from synced files in the cloud. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but I also wondered how that's even supposed to work with Fresco because it can't even be installed on a desktop, so cloud syncing is pretty vital. I'm honestly not sure I understand the details of the cloud syncing going away and what still works.
@@thehallhive9425 Ah yeah, the 72dpi web thing is sorta outdated as display technology has gone beyond that. Images on the web are designated my pixel dimensions for the most part.
I sometimes have issues with my files opening on the desktop when I send them to illustrator. A weird thing that I do that always works (albeit mildly annoying) is to have it open in AI on the iPad and then simply close it after it opens. When you open up AI on the desktop you’ll see the file there.
The cloud stuff that Adobe is getting rid of isn’t related to the syncing within apps. It’s actually just an additional file storage/sharing feature similar to dropbox / google drive that was additional to everything else. It’s a feature that I actually never used.
@@chris-piascik helpful info, thank you!
I didn't do a lot of web stuff other than optimizing so fb didn't destroy my photos with their own optimizing, so I mainly just kept the 300 dpi for printing purposes anyway.
That's a helpful tip about Ai and I will have to try it. My iPad is actually somewhat ancient and doesn't have much room so I had deleted Ai off of it but I'll put it back and test that out. Mostly I would just use Ai for tidying up vector points and smoothing out lines where my drawings sucked lol.
Good to know about the files!
Thanks for replying. I appreciate that you're awesome about getting back to people.
@thehallhive9425 thanks! I try to respond to as much as I can!

hey, I followed the same steps but I'm still getting lines in between
Please help, this is really important
Hmm, when you zoom in are the lines still there? Sometime PS just shows the "seams".
@@chris-piascik hey!! Yes, they are still there, maybe I need to start making them from scratch
@@chris-piascik And the pattern tiles are also not matching 🥺
Oh no, that’s weird! What file size are you working at?
@@bindu_01 Hmm, if they are not matching I would double check your math to make sure you're using the correct pixel dimensions when using the Offset filter.

I thought the same thing about worms when they get cut in half. I was telling mu daughter about it one day and realized that sounds kind of impossible. One end is the head and one end is the butt, so how the heck does it grow a new head or butt? According to Google, it doesn't 😞 Which also makes you a monster for disfiguring that poor worm drawing. Shame on you sir!
