This shows where we are heading and it is fantastic that Savage has seen to add this feature to this update rather than save it for Procreate 6. There is an option to see your texture flattened out too, which means you can also bring in other images or textures and add them in a more 2D way.Īn amazing new feature is that with the click of a button you can be viewing your model on your desk using an AR feature right there in Procreate. You can use any Procreate brush or feature so things like Smudge are great for mixing up paint that is already on the model. You can add new lights, colour them, change the HDRI (backgrounds that will reflect in your model). There is a new 3D tab that gives you access to lighting and the environment. There are sub-layers for roughness and 'metalness', which simply means you can enhance your painting with reflectivity and decide how much your material needs to look like metal. If the model has separate parts you can tap the part you want to paint on, and off you go. It has layers in the same way a flat document does. You begin by importing the model you want to paint. That's the beauty of this update, you can use your existing skills and workflow, but now in 3D. In fact, as long as you already know how to use Procreate there isn’t actually anything much new to get to grips with. The 3D painting process is very easy to learn. The same tools and workflow remain, but now you're painting 3D models. There are five options within the colour settings that allow you to work with either a colour wheel, traditional colour picker, adjustable colour value settings or your homemade palettes, as well as the 'harmony' menu that helps you to choose the colours that'll complement the hues you're using in your project – nifty stuff. This is a brilliant tool to use, and having your favourite colour selections all there in one place eliminates the hassle of having to use the colour picker over and over again. Procreate makes use of incredibly powerful colour settings that allows you to customise and save colours and palettes. One of the main selling points of Procreate is its versatile colour menu.
And you can even hide the menus if you don't like seeing them when you're working – just tap on the screen with four fingers to hide it. You can turn on Light Mode if you prefer to work in a brighter setting, flip the interface horizontally (to suit all you lefties out there), and even switch on the 'Brush Cursor' so you can see exactly where you're working on the canvas. You can modify your interface to suit your workflow and optimise your process. The app has a number of menus, sliders and toggles that makes Procreate easy to navigate and incredibly customisable.
