Draw an outline around the area you want to fill, making sure the shape is completely closed with no gaps. Drag the color circle from the top menu within the shape to fill the area. You may want to go back over the area with a textured brush and roughen the edges or add some grain.

How do I fill an area with color in procreate?

By using Procreate’s paint bucket tool, you can fill in a shape with a color. Remember the color selection tool in the top-right corner? Tap and hold down on that circle with your Apple Pencil, stylus, or finger. Then drag the color to the shape you want to fill in and release.

Why can’t I color fill in procreate?

Start a ColorDrop, but hold your finger on the canvas until the Threshold bar appears. Drag your finger to the left to adjust the threshold down, and this will constrain the bounds of ColorDrop. Make sure you have the latest Procreate Handbook – Threshold is covered on page 112.
