What's inside
- 32 lessons (6+ hours of video)
- Enox Procreate Brush (Included only through Proko)
Getting set up: Gear, canvas setup, the parts of the Procreate interface that actually matter, gestures, layers, brushes, and where to go for ideas.
Building the character: Start from references and simple shapes, block out a rough concept, then build the head, body, clothes, accessories and shoes. Small changes to the features and proportions are what create personality.
Linework, color and light: Brushes, the pressure technique, tapered outlines, bold outlines for emphasis, palettes, coloring, shadows, highlights, reflections, borders, export.
Who is this course for?
- You've got an iPad and Procreate and no idea where to start
- You can draw, but your characters come out generic
- Your linework never looks as clean as the work you admire
- You start drawings and abandon them halfway
- You sit down to draw and go blank
- You want to pull pieces of Enox's approach into your own style
Meet your instructor!
I'm Iain, a New Zealand artist, designer and illustrator who goes by Enox. My work sits somewhere between urban contemporary and pop art, pulling from graffiti, pop culture, 80s cartoons and Japanese kawaii characters. I work mostly in Procreate and Fresco, along with mixed media on canvas and wood, plus outdoor murals and gallery shows. I create bold, high-energy artwork for brands, creators and businesses, from custom characters and mascots to merch graphics, packaging and large-scale wraps and murals, and I've worked with brands like Adobe, Speedo and HJC. What I'm really after with every piece is to take someone's mind off the stresses of life for a moment and hand them some energy and positivity instead.
