ImagineFX September 2025 Issue 255
Published 1st July For many of us, we’re reaching the middle of summer, with longer daytime hours that bring more opportunities to get outdoors and enjoy the world. With that in mind, we’ve left our desks behind this issue to look at arguably the single best art app out there: Procreate. Armed with your iPad, Procreate and this issue, you can be up a mountain, in the forest, taking in some sea air, or laid back on the sofa as we bring you a bumper selection of expert tips to help you get the most out of your favourite portable tools. You can also follow along with the colouring process Eliza Ivanova used for our dazzling cover. Elsewhere in the issue we take you behind the scenes of the anime series Castlevania: Nocturne, exploring how the narrative, character traits and animation interlink to produce stunning visuals. For more learning, head to the workshop section to find out how to create characters bursting with personality. And for advice on where to spend your money, flip over to our expert reviews section.
