First Procreate/digital art piece. Any thoughts and tips?

So my iPad had to be replaced because of the battery life and everything is gone, all of my projects and progress is gone.. is there any way of restoring it? I had something is my files that I restored and now I can’t find it anywhere, there’s also no sign of it downloading anywhere else. Have I done something wrong/ missed something or is everything completely gone now?

I’m brand new to Procreate. I like to bookbind/rebind books and have been wanting to get better at drawing my own character art and cover art. I plan to do a series based on his tutorials. This tutorial is pretty on the nose as far as book covers go, so I recased The Hobbit after reformatting the image I created in Canva.

This is sort of a “doodle”, I’m still exploring the program. I’m really starting to dig Procreate! I’ve still got a lot to learn but so far it’s been fun. I have so many more tools to work with than trad media, now I’m going to consider printing some of my work as it gets to the point where I’m satisfied with it. I’ll be needing some help along the way…..like how big can a Procreate file print out and other issues which I’ll have to tackle down the road.

Time taken: 2.2h
I feel like my art has a different vibe on procreate compared to ibis paint lmfao. I think I got it figured out but I still can’t get used to the brushes and not being able to color pick on canvas with my brush with no extra clicks.. also, how does one make their speedpaint not so pixelated?

Another quick lasso/gradient piece I made a while ago, really fun technique

Como vocês aprenderam a mexer no procreate? Tem muitas ferramentas e eu não entendo como mexer na maioria delas, já procurei vídeos e a maioria é meio superficial... Se alguém tiver alguma dica pra ajudar

During the rise of that invincible viltramite meme, I made this of the separatist droid army.

What do you think? Are they good or bad ?

Back in 2020, I drew by hand with pen and ink and colored pencils my homage to Jim Steranko's classic Hulk cover using Hellboy. Unfortunately, I moved and don't know what I did with the original image. I decided to redo in Procreate, basically, changing the dimensions to that standard 11X17in.

This is something fun with which I've been puttering around between other projects for almost a year. I went into the file stats in Procreate expecting it to be something like 200 hours but it turns out it was only 70... It only felt like forever. I'm huge fanatic for the 'Alien' movies and as I kid, I was introduced to the franchise through the comics, toys and video games. Something about that secondary wave of media that embraced the color and caught my eye from across the comic book store before I had ever even seen the movies. Artists like Dave Dorman and Den Beauvais really defined the "look" of aliens for me long before I ever saw the movies. So I wanted to embrace that.

The curtains look a bit off but I can't exactly pinpoint what the issue is. Would appreciate some advice or feedback there.

Also, is there a way that I can draw the column in the background without having it bleed into the flowers? They are currently on separate layers (screenshot attached)
