Background Textures for Pattern Design and Illustration in Procreate

via Skillshare

Overview

In this class, you’ll learn how to create background textures with a few different methods in Procreate.

We’ll go through how to create background textures for illustrations, and what to do when you need your textures in a repeat pattern.

I’ll teach you how to make textures using brushes, and how to use stock images - or images that you’ve taken yourself to create amazing-looking textures. I’ll also show you how to use a pre-made texture file, like the one that is included to download for free in this class - to create your background texture.
