Are you having trouble drawing smooth lines in Procreate? In today's video, I walk you through the different techniques I use, my canvas and brush settings, as well as some exercises you can do to draw smoother lines!
*EDIT: The brush featured in this video was something I originally found on the forums that I have since stopped using after making my own brushes from scratch (which is what is in the brush pack for sale in the video description.) I know the original poster had pulled the download file for that brush (not sure if it was ever reposted.) I also had made so many adjustments to that one that people didn’t realize they would have to do the same and it caused a lot of confusion. My cartoon brush pack features all the brushes I currently use with all of the settings already fine tuned and ready to go (there is one in there similar to the one in this video but is actually so much better.) Hope this helps!

Let me know in the comments what you would like to see covered in upcoming episodes...you might see your idea come to life!
I’m not an expert, I just got a pencil for my iPad because I like to doodle, but I really start to love it with Procreate. You’re definitely an awesome channel to learn and get better. Thank you!
Thanks so much! Have fun with Procreate....it is a great app!!!
When I was a growing up in the 50’s I was never able to hold my pencil the proper way like you and others that I’ve been observing. And I remember being taught the correct way to use my arm like you mentioned. For some reason none of the correct techniques felt comfortable for me. I wonder if there are others with this issue like me. I was never able to draw. I think it might be to late for me. I’m fascinated by people’s ability to draw because I’ve always wanted to. I also think artists have an ability to see things differently. Anyway I enjoy watching your talent.
Not sure....maybe more practice/retraining to get that comfort level? Regardless-thanks for watching!!! I appreciate it!!!
linda1541 drawing is a craft like most things. Just as a person learns to lay bricks, bake a cake, or learn a variety of things, drawing is the same. Just constant practice and learning. You will develop a style and be just as good as anyone with an imagination
darshia33 Thank you for your wonderful words of encouragement ❤️
No this isn't true! I've NEVER held my pencil properly. I still hold it weird! The best thing to practice is to be really confident in your brush/pencil strokes.
Alice absolutely. knowing which stroke direction is your strongest is the best way to do drawings. A lot of artist constantly turn the page in a way that they can use their favorite stroke direction
Phew. The new update makes it difficult to figure this stuff out and you’re so far the best ‘instructor’ out there. It’s all about testing what works or not but dang is it a lot for a beginner, haha.
Keep at it!
This is the most useful video about clean line art in Procreate! Thank you!
Great to hear...thanks so much!
E????

It's really easy to get crazy and HATE procreate with so many adjustments... As a fashion designer that is used to sketch on paper and pencil its really confusing. THANK YOU for taking the time to explain to US. We really appreciate it. I am digesting all this with less stress with your videos !
We are grateful you take time from your human experience to connect with many of us together.
This video saved my sanity. I just started digital art after years of traditional, and not being able to make the marks I wanted to on my iPad had me wondering if I had forgotten how to draw. 😆
I was about to give up. I knew there had to be a simple way to adjust something or the other, but I had no idea where to look and what to adjust.
Thanks a lot man.
Helpful info included. What helped me enormously was to draw with syrup, too. Amazing difference in straightness of lines.
I haven’t even finished the video, but I’ve already learned so much about brush settings! I didn’t even know I was looking to adjust maximum size, but I absolutely was and I’m so happy I fixed it. Coloring will be so much faster. :D I’m sure I’ll learn about inking, too.
I did learn about inking! Brush settings and hand position will make a big difference.
So great to hear! Super glad I could provide some valuable information! Thanks for watching!!!
idk if you’ll see this but i think its really cool that outside your own merch you also added a list of your gear you use for youtube as well as your ipad accessories.
Thanks! I constantly get those types of questions, so thought it might be helpful for some!
I’ve been a hand illustrator for yeearrss but recently got an iPad air along with procreate so far I’m enjoying my experience thank you so much for sharing theses videos dubbed, to any artist that hasn’t gone digital yet or are still on the fence in regards to purchasing an iPad Air for procreate try this out you will not regret it, I don’t think I’m gonna go back to pen and paper anymore after experiencing this 😃
I am dying for a stroke stabilizer like PS and most other tools have, but your advice on not dragging your palm was helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Definitely a helpful video. The biggest thing here is probably the screen protector. Not having the pencil sliding around like a hockey puck is just so damn helpful.
For sure- the screen protector works wonders!
Probably one of the most helpful videos I have watched
ive tried to make clean line drawings but when i zoom into the lines they end up being jagged, so can you make a video on how to make one of your brushes for clean line art
It is probably going have less to do with the brush and more with your canvas size. I usually use a 4500x5400 canvas....if you use a small canvas, your lines will look jagged when zooming.
Use a bigger res lol

That is purely resolution. More pixels is all you need
This was very helpful! This is definitely going to jumpstart my transition to digital art.
Awesome! Glad to help!
Where do I find the Natural Inker 1 brush???
I have the same question
After years of watching your videos and things like this. I have finally gotten the latest iPad and Gen 2. pencil. soon to be acquired as a christmas gift
Great Great video... Im still working on my iPhone with a Bamboo stylist pen. I still work hard and follow your videos. So far I have made the chicken and carrot all on my phone.... Its hard working on my phone but im hoping one day to get an iPad. Thanks for everything you do...
Robert Jones Thanks Robert...I appreciate it! You will love the iPad once you get one!
You are a wonderful soul. Thank you so much. You saved me. Very clear video. Thank you.
Thanks!!! 👍👍👍
Wow! Thank you so much for making this! You're awesome.
canngo123 Thanks! Hope it helps!!!
Thanks so much for your brushes all the other brushes I have downloaded come out pixelated I tried EVERYTHING I was glad to spend only $5 on these little miracles
Where do I find the natural ink brush?

Liam Lawrence thank you
Same question, can someone Helu with the link pls 😢
That last recolor tip is so helpful for me!! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your great videos, you are one of my favorites!
Awww...thanks so much! I appreciate it!
i love your videos! can we get an updated settings view for 5! i know you haven't changed yours but they probably show differently in the new brush editor
Thanks! More Procreate videos in the works!
Literally just requested this on another video!! lol Subscribed! Love the channel!!
Best videos on procreate . Thank you .
Many thanks again sir. This will help so much.
All the best with your profile mate its come in so handy.
Glad to help!
Love the way you explain things in detail. Now that you no longer use this free brush and have made your own, what are the chances of you making a new video like this one that's up to date with the current version of the app?
The new update made it impossible to make this so I went to gumroad and it’s not free so I’m really sad now :(
Thank you Bee jay!!!!!! I learn so much watching your videos!
Thank you! I love that brush you shared with us!
It's really good...wish I made it, lol!
I just removed my screen protector and all the lines become so nice and sharp … 😩 thank you very much ❤️❤️. That really helped me
Very helpful to some extent but does not match the most recent Procreate in quite a few places.
So timely! I have been watching a lot of your videos and have scoured the comments sections looking for where you address this...so stoked to have access to this content! Your videos are really helping me to hone my illustration skills and to get the best out of my Apple Pencil and the Procreate app! Thanks man, really appreciate you! :)
Thanks for the feedback-means a lot! Appreciate you watching!
Great video and an absolute blast watching you draw. I’ve found that placing my hand higher on the Apple Pencil than I would a regular pencil helps a great deal.
Right on! I always love seeing how people hold their pencils differently!
Your vids are the best for tutorials like this was one of the best tutorials for drawing straight lines thanks for doing this vid if you never did it would never know how to draw straight lines
Thanks
Is that the misfits t-shirt your wearing just finished binging on all 5 series sorry great to see how you move your hand really helps a lot
Yup.... Misfits! Appreciate you watching!
omg thank you so much! i appreciate the brushes just purchased them and I thought they were brushes for drawing but they are actually pieces of drawings I love this saved me so much time haha :)
Thans for all. Greetings from Istanbul.
I can’t find the natural inker brush in the description can you help?
Where is the inking brush
Just got an ipad pro and apple pencil and subscribed after watching a couple videos.
Awesome! Enjoy the new iPad and thanks for watching!
Its not about the settings. Its about the skill. Good artists make smooth line with almost any brush
hi where can I find the free brush that you use?
Thank you for your help!😊Finally got it
👍👍👍
I'm gonna have to try this. One of my biggest gripes about procreate is the lack of a true native stability tool. Streamline just doesn't work for my drawing style. I'm curious if this wrist adjustment will help.
I only use streamline for those huge swooping curves that take up a large part of the canvas...I prefer having it off usually.
Second view was so helpful to me as a beginner. The glove was around $6.99. Thank you for a great lesson! 👍👍
Awesome! Glad you found it helpful! Let me know how the glove works for you!!!
Thank for this Ausome video!
I can't find the free natural inker brush in the description!
Can you tell me how can l get it ,pleaaase?
Great video, glad to stumble on it and some of your others! 70 years old and long making art but new to Procreate and drawing on an iPad. (put Procreate 5 on iPad Air 3 with Paperlike screen protector and the Pencil. Ordered the glove - great hint!.)
Question: the video mentions a link to the free Natural Inker brush. I don't see the link and don't see Natural Inker in the brush set you offer. With Google I found and installed the Natural Inker by Clay Yount and tried to set the brush parameters in Procreate 5 following your video instructions for a previous version which are somewhat different in menus and parameters. I'm not happy with the results, getting short tapers on the very ends instead of long tapers. (I was successful in creating my own versions of an airbrush and a couple of others from scratch so I think I understand at least SOME of the parameters after much experimentation.)
Any hints on setting the parameters for this brush in 5? Or is one of the brushes in the set you offer equivalent and tuned for use? I'd be glad to buy those. Thanks a million. JKJ
I ended up making the standard inker brush in my brush set as a replacement for that other brush. There were some things I didn’t like about that other one so made one from scratch with fine tuned settings-all ready to go as the default
I really like watching your videos 😄
Where is the free brush you mentioned?
Thank you for this tutorial 👏🏻✨
I wish I watched this before I started drawing
Ok
Thank you for the tutorial. Which link is the natural inker brush?
where do i find the natural inker brush
Bro this screen protector is dope
It makes a world of difference! Glad you are enjoying it!
great one! tnx! were can get the brush - natural inker 1 ?
Well, most people place the side of the palm of the hand on the surface of whatever they are drawing or painting, including me. It’s for support. I can’t draw without that support, and that’s why I always wear the glove. I tried to draw without touching the screen/canvas but it doesn’t work, for me and for most people.
Oh my gosh. Thank you!
That was great! Thank you!
Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated!
Fantastic! Great tips
This is great - thanks for all of your videos! I like those tapers you get on your lines. I have the Logitech Crayon now. Would I gain a lot of capability by getting an Apple Pencil and using that instead?
Yes, I would definitely recommend getting the Apple Pencil...night and day difference.
hi can you do a update on this video the settings are diffrent on the Procreate for 2020
Is there an updated version for the brush settings they’ve changed a lot and I can’t seem to get the inker settings quite like yours
Ordered the screen protector and drawing glove. Today though I cut a cross section of pair of ugly and cheap tights and wrapped my hand to get the glide!
I was getting so irritated about the side of my hand getting caught on the screen, and you explained it perfectly.
I love your explanations. Just what I was looking for. Where have you been all this time ? 🤗
This helped me SO much! Thanks
....So which brush in your pack is comparable to the Natural Inker 1 [no longer available]? Also wondering if any of the settings for your brush have to be adjusted (i.e. to attempt the line-work in your video), or can I use as is? Thanks.
Standard inker is my custom go to (followed by Bold Inker for bigger strokes.) All settings are intact and ready to go-no adjustments needed!
Excellent Video!
Thanks!!! ❤️
Love your videos!
this Video helped me, thank you
Hi I’m colour dropping in shapes but the colour is covering the whole canvas . I am using the monoline pens for the outlines. Please help !
Misfits shirt! I like you even more now! 💀😄
Hahahaha! Thanks!
Great video. Thanks much. Cannot download the brush. Message is that software caused an abort. I have second gen ipad pro and Procreate so not sure why.
Weird...have not seen that before. Did you go to the forum and click on the direct link?
Where is the brush link at? I only see your brush links.. isn't this supposed to be a Procreate brush to download ? Thanks!
I cant seem to find the brush in your description

How do you have the sound when you were writing for your pencil? I am missing my writing sound.
Matte screen protector- the link for the one that I use is in the video description!
Hi, I just purchased your Procreate cartoon pens, and I’m not getting an email for them or anything. I went through PayPal, does that make a difference? I’m confused. Please help
thank you man!!!, you help me a lottt❤
Awesome tutorial! Thank you! :)
Does anyone have a link to the brush? I’m not sure if he linked it in the desc. If looked and can’t find it :(
This is really helpful! Thank you so much :D
That was a brush that was something I originally found on the forums that I have since stopped using after making my own brushes from scratch (which is what is in the brush pack for sale in the video description.)

Hey thanks this was a great tutorial. My question is can you adjust the dpi of a finished piece or do all the settings need to be confirmed first up?
Gallery Alice you can import it to photoshop and there u can change it, however if u use a low DPI when u change it you will have to scale it up and it might lose a bit of quality
Arismendy Bizarre thank you for this tip I was about to redo a project so this was so useful...I’ve subscribed to you and looking forward to what you have to talk about, cheers!
Need to be done initially- changing it in another program after the fact won't actually make the image any sharper or higher resolution
So I have a bad ass drawing I’ve already done of Wednesday, I used the Baskerville brush, but it’s very pixelated line work, is there anyway within procreate to smooth the lines after it’s done?
Very neat draw a line keep up great job :D
Amazing video! Can you share how you make the patterned backgrounds for your coloring books?
It's really just creating something small and then basic copying/pasting to make patterns. I show a really quick example in the "how to scale your designs" video!
I just started watching your videos and got me to draw again 😊 but I'm having trouble finding the inker brush for procreate can you repost the link thank you
