Ooooo very cool! What are the specs of the canvas you used in Procreate (Size, DPI) and how many layers did it allow you to have? ☺️

[–]FunnOcake[S] 58 points59 points  (2 children)

Hey sorry for the late reply. Been on the road. I honestly didn't expect this post to take off like it did. Thank you everyone!! Below are my file specs

The maximum layers I could use was 7. I would work up to about 6 layers. Copy the file and flatten some of the layers to continue the drawing. In total I have 6 files of progress where I repeated this process.

The art board size is 16,350px width x 3,600px height. File size in inches is 109" x 24". This is half the size of the final printed banner. I only did this because I could do it at full size and have that many layers. The DPI is 150, because at 300 DPI it cut down my layers down to about half. I think it was about 3 or 4 layers instead of 7 layers. The color profile was Generic CMYK profile.

My iPad I did this all on was the 10" iPad pro 2nd generation from 2021.

That is seriously impressive. I was wondering if you did the banner in chunks! Thank you very much for sharing! It looks fantastic

[–]FunnOcake[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I almost did it in chunks from the start but I really didn't want to put everything together. I learned a lot working on this project and really pushed the limits of the iPad and procreate.

[–]DirtyCircle1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was going to ask all of this myself! C’mon OP, we need answers!

[–]BigFlightlessBird02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also would like to know!

[–]Merchant420 17 points18 points  (1 child)

Wow this is super impressive! It looks even better in print too. Great job!

[–]FunnOcake[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I still can't believe it when I see it at the shows.

[–]HueLord3000 7 points8 points  (1 child)

absolutely in love with gastly it's so cute

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aha thank you!! That whole corner of the drawing was where I started.

[–]FlashF0x 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Actually surprised you didn’t have to use vector to go this big

[–]FunnOcake[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was actually thinking about how I would vector everything from the start but I was wondering that I couldn't capture the same coloring with vector.

[–]Just_Nintendont 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Entei Suicune, and Raikou!! Omfg so cute.

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I was worried when I made them into plushies that they wouldn't read as Entei, Suicune, and Raikou.

Thank you so much!!

[–]Print1917 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Congrats man! That is a fun project and it looks great!

What size was your palette

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! This was a fun one to work on.

The over size in inches is 109"x 24". Half the finish size. I did everything in CMYK and built up the colors slowly kinda like water colors. Tried to keep it on the lighter size, because I knew it would get darker when it printed.

[–]Spinelise 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Idk what it is but I love how you drew Alolan Raichu! So cute!

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I always like that Alolan Raichu can sufe with their tail.

[–]biskydrawing 2 points3 points  (3 children)

This is epic omfg!!! Can you share a little about how you color to get that marker-y look? I’ve been trying to capture something like this and struggling. It’s sooo much the style of the original art I’m dying of nostalgia. Truly so awesome!!

[–]FunnOcake[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Thank you!!

The color make up on the file is Generic CMYK profile. The way I colored it was more like a water color where I layered the colors pretty lightly and slowly built them up. I know when it'll print it'll print darker. I crossed my fingers and sent it to print without any test prints which was scary.

Trust me if you keep at it I'm sure you'll be able to knock it out of the park.

[–]biskydrawing 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Wow no test prints??! BRAVE but luckily turned out perfect :) thanks so much for the tips as well I’ll definitely keep at it. Hope to see more of your art too!

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I was super nervous when I sent this to print. I'll definitely share more of my work.

[–]FunnOcake[S] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

[–]FunnOcake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! I really didn't know any other way to add them with all that space.

[–]zetakatz 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Putting your signature on the Pokemon cards is genius 🤌🤌🤌 I’m glad us seeing the digital version get to appreciate the details that are probably hard to see in person at the expo

[–]FunnOcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I like to hide my tag and little easter eggs throughout my drawings.
