From top to down, left to right, the screen snapshots of the workflow I used in the iPad Air for the Housecleaning cartoon.
1. Scan pencil sketch in grayscale jpeg, save to Dropbox. Open iDraw in iPad, select Import from Dropbox.
2. Open file, add layers for panels, lettering and inks. The pencil sketch image is the bottom layer.
3. The file dimensions.
4. After the ink work is done, hide the image layer to make the pencil sketch disappear from view. Exit to iDraw's gallery, touch the Share icon, and select Save to Dropbox.
5. Select jpeg and 300 dpi, then Save.
6. Open Procreate, tap Import, Dropbox.
7. Open the file, select the image layer and change it from Normal to Multiply. That will make the layer transparent. Add a layer below the image layer and start painting.
The problem with the size of this 300 dpi file in Procreate is that layers are limited to 4 maximum. Also Procreate crashes now and then, but its frequent auto file saves means I don't lose much.
When I'm satisfied with a paint job, I merge it into a previously painted layer and start a fresh layer.
The file's dimensions and size are in Canvas Metadata.
8. When the paintwork is done, tap Share, Export to Dropbox.
9. Tap JPEG.
10. Dropbox shows the b/w file from iDraw at 2.3 MB; the painted file from Procreate is 8.2 MB.
If I'm going to email the cartoon, 1 MB or less is a better file size for sharing. To reduce the file size, I upload the file to my Flickr account using the app FlickStackr in my iPad. Flickr offers an option to download the file in different sizes. I pick one of the smaller sizes and download it to Photos for sharing.
Being the newest iPad to date, the Air runs the above apps pretty well with no lagging, other than Procreate's occasional crash and its 4 layers limit. The iPad 2 I still have would probably be slower, and it has a poor screen display compared to the Air's retina.
Working on modifying my workflow to upload straight to the iPad Air2 plus post process with iPad apps straight from the SD. Not as good as my iMac and LR5 but it works.

This is often the hardest step because it means leaving some good photos behind, but this is the most important step. In this set I had multiple interesting takes on a statue but decided that just one would make the cut. Conversely, I chose two versions of the flag because they were very different. There were other shots that were nice but I thought that they were cliche or not within the mood or theme of the rest. I do final editing here so that the photos feel like a set not a mish mash. I give these photos 3 stars in Lightroom. I'm left with 8. These are the ones that see the light of day.
In an attempt to be more organized, I made a workflow of my process. It looks complicated but really only the red & grey items are time consuming. The rest are either fully automated or easy.
Located in the heart of the glamorous city of Cannes —close to the Palais du Festival and famous Croisette walk— the Vieux Port de Cannes has been a long time favourite port of call for boats of all sizes. A wooden quay in front of the Capitainerie can accommodate yachts up to 40m there (50m upon request)

Desktop diary replacement. For some reason (suspect variants) MS has the concept of CSTRING or string of indeterminate size. Played havoc when trying to compile code with ANSI string.

instagram.com/socal.soul.surfer: This was, for me, a grown up Marvel film. The most sophisticated in execution. Attention to detail. Breathtaking action sequences. Just enough humor. Storyline. Score. It had it all. But the wonderful thing about being in the world at this time is you can't lose with Marvel. They are so good at everything they do...and yes I still remember the Eric Bana Hulk when I say this lol
doctornvrmore: @__ahimsa You are right! I cannot argue with you on any "intelligent" level... #CaptainAmerica #WinterSoldier should be my favorite Superhero movie of all time! And it is one of my favorites... Top 2, Top 3, Top 4??? I
instagram.com/socal.soul.surfer: I have a soft spot for the first Iron Man. Of course the Avengers. Guardians. Blade. Thor 1. I think the best might still be yet to come...
doctornvrmore: @__ahimsa (didn't mean to send that) ... My other contenders for Top 5 are... The Avengers: Probably my #1 because of the sheer awesome, dream come true magnitude of the movie (It's what I wanted from the X-men movie but didn't deliver)... Spider-man 2 and Spider-man (Rami) are in strong consideration as well. Spider-man 2 with Doc Ock was such a great movie, such a great story, and the dialogue was great as well. As much as it pains me to admit it, because I am not a big DC/Batman guy--- but The Dark Knight was an epic story (Batman Begins was good and The Dark Knight Rises was filled with issues for me)... I also hesitate not to harken back to the original Superman movie-- great movie for it's time and Christopher Reeves is the actor which all superhero actors are trying to measure up to... So it's hard for me just to hand it to Winter Soldier even though it is very much worthy....
doctornvrmore: You are right though, again, Blade was the first true Marvel movie and IronMan and RDJ put Marvel on the map... I do have a great love for the IronMan movies, although I was never a HUGE IronMan comicbook guy, well at least not Tony, I really loved the West Coast Avengers with Rhodey in the suit! lol... GotG was such a huge surprise, I expected it to be good, but after watching IronMan3 I wasn't sure I would think it was great... but hell-- it was awesome!! @__ahimsa
instagram.com/socal.soul.surfer: I was limiting my initial opinion on WS as the best of the Marvel films. But when expanded to all superhero films Superman: The Movie set the standard for sure. Richard Donner set the bar very high. The Dark Knight might actually be the best overall for my money. But Marvel is where my heart is. I too was not a huge Tony Stark fan, but what child is going to relate to a character like that? But RDJ brought him to life in such a way that Jon Favreau just made magic happen. I loved Loki in the comics so his presence in Thor and Avengers were highlights for me. And being a Vision fan I am trying to contain myself for A2 just in case. But I really cant wait for Black Panther and Doctor Strange. Even Ant Man because Im a Paul Rudd geek. Maybe one day a Namor flick? (Even though thats a "rights" issue, I believe Legendary pictures had him.) Oh, and I was a bog fan of Ramis Spidey 1&2 and even Amazing Spiderman 1. But a fresh take with Marvel is very exciting for me.
instagram.com/socal.soul.surfer: And I totally agree on the X-Men films. They never seem to deliver and always have more flaws for me than greatness. I own them all and find things to enjoy for sure, but they always seem to leave me empty. Maybe its Fox. But the Fantastic 4 films were such a huge let down too...and dont get me started on what they did to my beloved Silver Surfer! Lol
instagram.com/socal.soul.surfer: It must be said though that even with all of my Marvel love the only superhero film I ever stood in line for was Tim Burton's Batman. I was never the biggest Batman fan but that was so fun and provided very good memories.
