Learn to sketch and render a stone amulet in Procreate, using Hansung Academy brush set, quick shapes, layering, and transform tools to craft a wire-wrapped pendant for game art.
Plan lighting and masking by creating a dedicated mask layer to define silhouettes, establish a primary light source and a key light, and paint shadows and ambient occlusion for depth.
Learn to lay flat colors under shadows and lighting, using alpha lock and clipping masks, and texture iron, wire, and crystal surfaces with Procreate brushes and layer effects.
Apply color and detail techniques in Procreate to simulate hard and ambient lighting, use reflections and copper textures, and blend with mud brushes for game-ready artwork.
Apply final polish and special effects in Procreate by layering light over shadows, adding highlights, glow, and patterns with symmetry to craft a magical amulet design for a game.
In this rough sketch, the artist lays out four potion beakers on a 9x9 canvas in Procreate, using Quick Shapes to keep lines imperfect and dynamic.
Finish a rough sketch for game art in Procreate by applying form shadows, core shadows, ambient occlusion, and lighting to glass, copper, and other materials.
Learn to create convincing highlights, shadows, and flat colors in Procreate using masking, alpha lock, clipping masks, and screen and multiply layers to bring glass and metal surfaces to life.
Create convincing glass effects by separating glass from flats, refining transparency, highlights, and reflections, and using masking to simulate interactions with the surrounding environment.
Explore flat colors and glass effects in Procreate by refining core shadows, ambient occlusion, and highlights, then build texture via layered materials like copper and rubber.
Explore how to add polish and textures to game art in Procreate, using layers, blending modes, highlights, and rim lighting to create believable glass and copper effects.

Interested in concept art, illustration, or digital painting? Looking to pursue professional work, or bring your hobbies to life? Have you been frustrated by previous attempts to pick up painting? Look no further!
This course takes you along as I work on two real gaming projects and explain my process step-by-step.
Course Materials Include:
-A complete Procreate brushset that I developed for use in my company's projects
-Layered .PROCREATE and .PSD files at various checkpoints in the process for your own analysis and experimentation
-Color swatches used in the class
Painting is a learned skill - which means you can learn it.
Students of any skill level can benefit from this course! A basic understanding of how to navigate around the software is helpful, and I provide some short free primers on my Youtube channel to get you ready if you're nervous about tackling this class.
This course is taught in Procreate on an iPad, which is one of the most cost-effective combinations to get into professional-grade digital painting. However, if you are already comfortable with another software and willing to do some improvising, you can still follow this course and learn my workflow and layer arrangements.
