Magical Moths & Botanical Illustration using Procreate's Symmetry Tool
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
Welcome! We’re up for some more fun with Procreate, as we create another digital illustration filled with MAGIC - beautiful magical moths decorated with stunning botanical elements!
We will focus on mastering the symmetry assist guide in the Procreate, as well as improving overall our sketching and composition skills. Meanwhile, the goal is to create a detailed digital illustration with a traditional-media feeling to it. Excited? Oh man, me too! Get ready for some chalks, pencils and charcoals!
The class is recommended for the intermediate level, as some basic digital software knowledge is required. Naturally, those of you who are more experienced in using Procreate (or any other digital drawing tool) can go way beyond my instructions, go wild with their own brushes and amaze us with their own unique Procreate tricks! At the same time, those students who are still very new and beginner to Procreate will surely be able to follow along, as I will be showing you my entire illustration creation process, step by step, at a comfortable pace.
I will be using Procreate app on my iPad, but feel free to use any drawing software or medium you prefer.
