The Sketchbook Experience for Procreate

The Sketchbook Experience for Procreate uses the new Page Assist feature from Procreate 5.2 to bring you the most authentic traditional sketchbooking experience in the digital world!

Watch me use this tool and explain how it works in this video:

It includes:

–16 different digital sketchbooks ready to be open in Procreate: 8 in A4 size (the equivalent to a big-sized sketchbook) and 8 in A5 size (similar to a classic half-page sized sketchbook).

–All sketchbooks have different covers, with the option to have stickers on them where you can write anything you want, or without stickers and a clean look. (Also you can show or hide the Manero Brushes sticker independently).

–Each sketchbook type has a different paper texture!

–A brush set with 48 brushes in total (including the updates mentioned below) carefully focused on the art of sketchbooking: pencils, inking pens, markers, ink washes, ink splatters and more.

–A collection of 29 coffee stains made from real coffee and 4 texture sheets of real graphite dirt you can add to your sketchbook pages for an extra layer of realism!

–07/12/21 Stickers and Planners Update: Now you can fully customize your sketchbook covers by placing stickers from a collection that will grow over time with more future updates! There is 10 carefully hand-drawn stickers to choose from so far (24 in total with the updates mentioned below). Also with this update, now you can add calendars or a weekly planner to any page in your sketchbooks! All months for 2022 are included, and the weekly planner works for any week of the year 😊

(15/01/23) The brushes in this set have been updated to take full advantage of the new Apple Pencil hover feature! If you have an iPad with hover support, make sure to download this update for the best experience.

The "All-improved Manero Brushes" Update (17/09/24)

This set now features unique full-color thumbnails and organizes the brushes into categories for improved navigation. Please use dark mode in Procreate to display these custom thumbnails correctly. Note that opening the thumbnails in Brush Studio will cause them to lose their color. If this happens, reinstalling the set will restore them. Some brushes now support barrel roll on compatible iPads (Apple Pencil Pro required). Look for the “Rotate” 🔄 symbol in their names for quick identification. On non-supported iPads, barrel roll brushes will work with azimuth, a feature that allows you to control rotation with the angle of your Apple Pencil. The textures in the Vertical Pencil Light, Medium and Strong brushes have been remade from scratch for more visually pleasing results. Minor tweaks have been made to the brushes for improved performance.

Disclaimer: This tool is only guaranteed to be fully compatible with Procreate 5.2 and above, please make sure that you have the correct version before purchasing.

IMPORTANT: Please note that the included stickers can only be used to decorate your digital sketchbook covers for personal use, and can not be used for making or selling printed out stickers, making or selling t-shirts, prints or any other commercial uses.

18/11/21 Update: The behavior of the 5 inker brushes and the Sketchbook Marker 02 has been improved. Before, the inker brushes were meant to be used only with black to mimic true inking brushes, but that would cause for weird colors to appear when trying to use other colors than pure black. Now you can use them with any color without issues. The Marker 02 was showing weird colors when used with the Smudge Tool, it is fixed now.

–07/12/21 Stickers and Planners Update: 10 carefully hand-drawn stickers added to customize your sketchbook covers even further. Also monthly calendars for all 2022 and a weekly planner template that you can add to your sketchbook pages!
