How To Cartoon Yourself in Procreate | Tips and Tricks (SIMPLE)
#Tutorial #Procreate #Cartoon

In this video, we are going to learn how take image or photo and turn it into a cartoon using procreate. Throughout the video I will show you a few simple tips and tricks for sketching, drawing your line work, adding your color, adding shadows, adding textures and using reference layers. I hope this video can give you all some inspiration to these methods yourself and create your own cartoon in procreate.

Also be mindful that tracing someone else's artwork is technically stealing. I don't advise you do that unless you have full permission from the original creator to do so and if you do you MUST give that artist credit.

Thank you all for the support so far lets keep grinding :) 💯

32 years of drawing and I still can learn from other artists. Never stop growing fam.❤

After countless videos on “cartoon yourself”……this is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone pencil sketch first, usually folks go straight to inking. Your method seems better. I’m gonna try this!

[brandymacias]

This was great and simple to understand!!!

[Cynful_Bytez]

Yo this video is PERFECT. I’m trying to learn how to use Procreate to create portrait rugs. I’m far from an artist. This really helped. Thank you.

[ZumbawithDorothy]

Really not a long video at all. The glasses changed amazing!

[Trypyyyy]

Just made my first cartoon of myself. Thank you for the guidance. Now to keep practicing!

[poisonsky]

Rembrandt effect you created on the cheek is just epic. Thanks for sharing your knowledge & artistic abilities !

[jojocrowley]

Great work, great video! Love your stance on only working from your own creative property and not anyone else’s.

[allanbilbao]

Nice work. It will be better if you can focus the camera fixed on the Ipad - it gets OOF and focus on your hand instead...

[Benjamin.Greenwood]

This is exactly what I'm looking to do. You killed it! NIce work!

[THEGIGLITE]

The “ring light” highlights make a for a dope look.. im gonna implement that.. thanks..

[charliescirclez]

Thank you for sharing. I bought procreate and an Apple Pencil a week ago. I’ve made a couple nice pieces but I love seeing how you navigate the layers.

Thank you, I found you today and I will learn, I was looking for a Chanel like this.🙏🏾

[jopped]

This is amazing! I am a absolute beginner, gonna try this kind of style

[quistone]

Definitely used your video as a reference. Didn't come as good as yours BUT it was my 1st try. I think it still came out good

[graphicsamdw]

Wow! I found this tutorial today, and it was pretty helpful to me. Thanks mate, for share this with us, newby cartoonists! I use to work with Sketchbook Pro and Photoshop, but this is about the same process in those softwares.

[ramonsita]

I appreciate the detailed step by step instructions, speed drawings are entertaining, but they don’t help much. I look forward to watching more of your great work!

[Candyroadarts]

This is amazing! I already subscribed to your channel. Great video! it was very helpful. Thank you!

[IanMcVitty]

That is a real inspiration. Thanks so much. So cool.
