Hi Teoh,

I really like your sketching style and I like your work done in Concepts. I recently started using this app myself. I'd like to know your thoughts on how to color sketches. It seems the fill tool is the quickest way to color a sketch but it looks very flat. I've tried using the hard pencil (I haven't purchased anything yet so just using the free tools) and that gives some texture but it takes a lot longer and it's hard to get the size right and it's not very uniform. Too big and it goes out of the area I'm coloring, too small and it takes a long time and is streaky. I experimented with using the fill tool and then going over it with hard pencil to give it some texture.

What I'd really love is to have a fill tool that would fill with a watercolor wash effect. Do you know if anything like that is possible? I haven't tried procreate yet, so far I really like concepts. I'd like to go more for speed so maybe I'll just get used to the flat texture of using the fill tool. I'm curious how you decide which approach to use.

Thanks for sharing.

@Michael
It's easier to colour with the soft pencil, not hard pencil.

If you have a pen that support tilt sensitivity, you can tilt the soft pencil to colour larger areas.

Colouring with pencil is not going to be that precise unless you're very careful.

There is a watercolour brush pack with many watercolour brushes. You can see this video for the different brush styles.

Colouring with the watercolour brush is gonna be similar to colouring with the pencil brushes. You're basically drawing overlapping lines and it's not precise.

There's one Watecolor B4 brush which is my main brush for creating line art.
