Procreate and iPad Pro.... is it worth it?

very much worth it, you dont even need to get a pro. procreate is greatly optimized on almost every ipad

The iPad is pretty versatile and can definitely be a worthy investment. The basic iPad + Apple Pencil is good as a basic drawing tablet or second monitor. The iPad Pro + the new Apple Pencil are quite a bit more expensive, but you get a nicer display, better drawing response and a pen that wirelessly charges.

And Procreate is definitely a good option as far as drawing apps go.

I'd say go with a new iPad, it's a very fun tool IMO, and app availability is constantly growing.

Procreate is probably the most popular! It's not free but is affordable and very easy to use, I'm personally still learning to use it but I think is definitely worth it. Watch some YouTube videos that walk you through how the app works and see if it could fit your workflow!

I've been using these for a few years but looking at getting the wacom one

Oh yes, absolutely! I wasn't myself an illustrator but that combo really helped me getting more into it. And I've gotta say it's so cool, though I'm still not great, I enjoy drawing so much more than before. The iPad is also great for many other purposes, too! Definitely worth it.

I have an iPad mini but it's not compatible with the new app so I'd have to trade it in and buy a new ipad... People who use the program LOVE it, but I'm wondering if it makes more sense to invest in a nicer drawing tablet instead?

which one did you get at last? I am wondering the same question too.
