First off,  "Value, light and color" won the poll by a single vote! I will start working on that once I get back from my trip in early November so it can be ready for next year. 

So I have been messing around in procreate every day, but it has mostly been me adjusting the settings and finding the brushes I like to use. Right now the HB pencil and reed brush are my favorites (I used the reed brush for the thumbnails above, along with the light brush for the candle glow) 

I had no idea the apple pencil was tilt sensitive either, and I got embarrassingly excited when I found out by accident the other day. That is going to make shading figure drawings WAY EASIER, instead of me having to mimic that traditionally shaded look in PS.  I am still getting used to the awkwardness of drawing onto a screen though, and how strange it feels to be tapping on smooth glass instead of something more textured.  

Not sure what I want to use to paint with yet, because none of the brushes are like my main brush in photoshop, but I will keep experimenting and figure something out. At least I found some sketch brushes that really fit my style!

These are so good!!! <33 Would you recommend the ipad/pen/procreate?

Thank you!!! Definitely, just for the portability alone! Procreate is really freaking good for a 10 dollar program, and you can do a lot with it. The brushes are very customizable, and you can bring PS files into it (although I'm not sure how well that works yet lol) As for the ipad and pencil itself, I already have an iphone so the tablet isn't much different, but the pencil is pretty damn great. It charges in literally minutes, is tilt sensitive like I said, and feels nice to hold. The only thing I hate is the cap and adapter for charging the pencil. I had to buy some silicone pieces that tether the adapter to the charging cord, and another that attaches to both the pen and cap. I can see myself losing both pieces otherwise, so I recommend buying something like that if you get it... 8.5/10, would recommend!

Yeah, I am going to be paying mine off for the next six months LOL. But if you didn't know already, they made the 6th generation of the ipad compatible with the pencil, so you don't have to buy the pro anymore! So the price is a little better. A LITTLE. You're welcome!
