Procreate <\/strong>is the ideal tool for designers <\/strong>and lovers of He drew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

have you done He drew <\/strong>and today you want add a shadow <\/strong>to your object. I explain everything to you!<\/p>\n

How to make shadows with hatching in Procreate<\/h2>\n

May make your shadow <\/strong>thanks to the paper pencil: for this, I advise you to use the Pencil 6 B brush in the Sketches list of your Brushes library.<\/p>\n

with the pencil, hatching form<\/strong> at the level of the shadow to be created (for example, in this image, on the neck and on the nose). <\/p>\n

In the same way as with a pencil, you can also create shadows<\/strong> holding your stylus at an angle, which will have the effect of making one side erase with your stylus, just like in “real life”. For example here I noticed this shading <\/strong>in the beret<\/p>\n

As you can see, I combined these two techniques in various places in my drawing (hair, neck, chest, eyelids\u2026).<\/p>\n

How to do shading with color in Procreate<\/h2>\n

Next comes the coloring step.<\/p>\n

Choose a wet watercolor or water-based brush from the Paint directory of your Brush Library.<\/p>\n

You can add a the so-called “cold” color layer<\/strong>, that is, a slightly saturated gray tending towards blue. you can use this shading <\/strong>only for darkness <\/strong>transported objects, when you do not make a shading for skin<\/strong><\/p>\n

For more realism<\/strong>once this color is applied, in another layer, you can pass a the so-called “warm” color layer<\/strong> at your level shading<\/strong>, that is, a dark color that pulls towards red. This is particularly suitable for shadows on the skin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These two colors, when overlapped, will produce a natural tone <\/strong>on the skin<\/p>\n

When you’ve finished your work, don’t forget to Save your work to Procreate.<\/p>\n
