My daughter bought me this book for Christmas. I didn’t get round to looking at it properly until the other day. I found that from page 145 to 160 there was a hole or indent at the top of the page. Unfortunately the return date for this book was 31.12.2021 so I’m stuck with this poor quality book as an Xmas gift from my daughter. Very upset daughter. This is disgusting.

My wife has been using procreate for a year or so now. This book in the first few chapters has taught her simple new features and shown her great art projects to undertake.
Worth the money in my opinion.

Doesn’t give instructions on how to draw or design characters as I thought, this is 90% just instructions on how to use the procreate programme. If you already know how to use procreate this is not worth buying.

Great explanation of how to use Procreate and some useful downloads as well

I bought this book as I have the first one and just loved the gorgeous art tutorials on offer in this one! First things first, I absolutely love the style of 3DTotal’s books. I have many of them and have always found them to be sophisticated yet fun, with bright colours and gorgeous layouts.
The first half of the book details the basics and more advanced options that the Procreate app offers. It’s much like the first book in terms of this, so both are able to be bought as standalone copies.
Where this book shines as its own is the tutorial section. You are taken through the steps from initial ideas to final illustration of the pieces shown on the front cover. I loved how much I learned about these artist’s mindsets and methods, with each taking on a different and unique art style.
I’d highly recommend to both beginner and amateur artists who are interested in better understanding the program and its offerings.
