Procreate Accelerator
For Architects & Designers

Get fluent in Procreate — fast, practical, and built for real design work..

Turn your iPad into a professional sketchbook that actually pays the bills. The Procreate Accelerator teaches the essential techniques architects and designers use in real projects — drawing to scale, quick schematic sketching, polished plan/elevation/perspective renderings, and hybrid workflows that move seamlessly into SketchUp or CAD. Learn what you need, apply it immediately, and get back to doing the work you love — faster and with more impact.

Wouldn't it be great if you could…

Sketch clear, presentation-ready concepts directly on your iPad — anywhere.
Produce warm, hand-rendered visuals that still integrate with modern office workflows.
Make faster design decisions by sketching, drafting, and diagramming in one place.
Draw to scale with custom templates, rulers, and stencils built to be used together inside Procreate, so your sketches can become dimensionally accurate plans.
Reclaim pride in your hand drawing — now relevant and powerful for the digital age.
Build client trust earlier by sharing drawings that invite collaboration instead of shutting it down.

What’s Holding You Back?

If you’ve stalled with Procreate or the iPad, you’re not alone. Here’s what we usually hear:

You bought an iPad with big plans but found the app confusing or hard to adapt for design work.

You’re unsure how hand drawing fits into fast, digital project workflows.

You worry about looking amateur in front of colleagues or wasting time on tools that don’t match firm processes.

You’ve tried videos and half-finished courses but need a clear, structured system — not another lonely YouTube binge.

About Me

I’m James Akers — a registered architect, professional renderer, and founding instructor behind iPad for Architects. For years I built my career drawing by hand in pencil and watercolor — until I saw how the pace of practice was changing and new tools opened a better path forward.

Now I combine that background with custom workflows — like draw-to-scale systems and hybrid rendering methods — to help architects rediscover the clarity and joy of hand drawing, fully integrated with modern digital practice on the iPad.

...I started using the rendering tactics in your Rendering with Procreate course which are massively time-saving and optimize my work. Long story short, I’m now doing these quick, 2-to 5-hour color renderings—similar to what I learned in your course—for upcoming broadcast commercials and shows. My new clients love my Procreate hand renderings! So you were actually not BS-ing when you said this stuff could change your life. Just wanted to thank you again. I’m starting on the Sketchup for iPad course now, and please let me know if you ever do one for Shapr-3D. With gratitude and appreciation for all you do

Why I Created the Procreate Accelerator

This isn’t a generic “how-to” video library. It’s a focused, task-based program designed to get you competent and confident in Procreate — fast — by teaching only what matters to practicing designers.

Most architects default to Morpholio Trace because it markets itself to the profession — but its pixel–vector hybrid comes with limits. Procreate, by contrast, is cleaner, more flexible, and built for creative fluency. The Accelerator shows you how to unlock it for design, including a draw-to-scale system that rivals any “architect app.”

Finish the course and you’ll be sketching billable work, producing client-ready visuals, and integrating those drawings into real office pipelines.

What This Course Will Help You Become…

Someone who draws faster, cleaner, and more confidently than ever before.
A designer who can sketch, revise, and present ideas on the fly, wherever you are.
A professional who knows exactly how to get from blank screen to polished floor plan.
A master of scale in Procreate — no more hacks or half-solutions, but a proven ecosystem.
A peer in the modern design office, not an outsider stuck in a paper-based past.
Someone who can finally stop Googling “how to scale in Procreate.”
A confident, capable contributor who no longer fears review sets, client calls, or deadlines.
A designer who’s reconnected with the pleasure of drawing.
Someone whose imagination feels tethered once again to the tips of their fingers.
A working architect who gets billable work done with nothing but an iPad and a quiet place to think.

How is this course different? Most tutorials show isolated tricks. The Procreate Accelerator gives you the complete workflow: templates, brushes, real project tasks, and exercises that connect to SketchUp and CAD.

It’s built for architects and designers who want speed, clarity, and professional-grade drawings — not art-class theory. Unlike random YouTube demos, it teaches every tool through architectural tasks, so you build real muscle memory while producing useful design work.

I’m a very recent ex-Disney Imagineer (Senior concept designer/ Art Director) and I want to grow my skills doing exactly what you're doing for vacation resorts and such. Love your videos because I’m using and learning the same tools. Thank you for these tutorials!!!

What’s Inside the
Procreate Accelerator?

The Procreate Accelerator is a complete architect’s walkthrough of Procreate — every tool, every feature, explained in the context of real design tasks. You’ll learn:

How to set up canvases, including the 300 DPI system for accurate drawing to scale.
Using scale templates, architectural brush sets, sample canvases, and color palettes.
How every brush in the library works — and which ones matter for design.
The Selection tool in all its modes, with architectural exercises to show why each matters.
The Move and Transform tool in all its modes, applied to plans, diagrams, and entourage.
The Adjustments menu, with practical uses for lighting, color, and scale studies.

Every lesson is framed around architectural or landscape design examples — so instead of learning in isolation, you see how Procreate supports the daily work of a concept designer.

I rejected the iPad as just another gizmo... then I succumbed, bought an old one, and within 24 hours, I was smitten. I traded it for a powerful one two weeks later. James' courses have been magic—I never considered the iPad as a time saver, but now I can’t imagine my workflow without it. The first paying sketch took 1.5 hours, but the revision took 7 minutes... the client responded in 5 minutes and was excited.

I’ve been using computers forever, yet I feel stupid as $#!t sometimes. But somehow, these classes made it click. I got my money’s worth on the first lesson alone—how to navigate the gallery. I needed to take that before jumping into rendering. It’s hard being an old dog... but this old dog is learning new tricks.

Who This Is For

This Accelarator is perfect if you are:

A working architect, interior designer, educator, or serious student
Someone who bought an iPad and Procreate but hasn’t yet made it part of your workflow
Frustrated by scattered tutorials and ready for a practical, structured path to proficiency
Looking to present warmer, more personal drawings without sacrificing professional clarity
Ready to practice, implement, and apply these skills directly to real design projects

Who This Is NOT For

This program is probably not right if you:

Want a quick shortcut without learning or practice
Think sketching is just a casual hobby and don’t plan to apply it to real design projects
Expect to master the entire app in one afternoon

OMG! You are amazing wow! I’ve learned more about procreate from your video than in a year. Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. You made everything look so easy and your paste was incredible for actually keeping up. Watched the entire video with my mouth wide open. Thank you!
