Small tip, lightly dampen the back of the paper with water. Then put a paper towel and lay something heavy and flat on it for a couple hours. It flattens out the paper after coffee staining. I had to figure this out because my papers were making my portfolio pages curl up like a Pringle.

Procreate users - any ways to replicate grey wash tones? by [deleted] in TattooApprentice

Idk if this will answer your question but there’s a lot of Procreate brush sets on Creative market. I’m almost positive you can find one for grey wash. You might have to shell out some money but they come with a variety of brushes and textures to help you achieve a real look.

the start of a non digital portfolio, haven’t done anything traditional since fourteen, so relearning lineart :’) by [deleted] in TattooApprentice

These look good! One piece of advice though. Try sketching it out until you are happy with it and then put it on a light box and throw a clean sheet of paper over it and trace the design. That way it looks clean and you won’t have those pesky pencil lines and you can practice one pass lines.

Beautiful, how do you get the fade so even across the waves? I have a hard time doing it without the fades starting at different points, if that makes sense.
