Re: CTG or paint bucket?

Here's a quick video David, sorry for the low quality. https://vimeo.com/165026220" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; 165026220 I disable both anti-aliasing on my pen and my paint bucket, it feels safer for me but I believe it works with anti-aliasing too. You don't have to pai...

Re: CTG or paint bucket?

Paint bucket all the way for me with border lines (color separation lines). Here's a quick demonstration. Edit: Updated with TVPaint ver.

Re: Animators with similar styles to Masaaki Yuasa

Masaaki Yuasa's style is typical Studio 4C isn't it? If you look at Tekkonkinkreet you'd be hard pressed I'm sure to tell the difference between it and Mind Game. It may also be worth noting I think that those distortions and craziness stem from the original works all these features are based on by ...

Re: Painting questions

The bigger picture with using border lines is they are absolute pixel formations, in my example every pixel is accounted for, so if I draw a very sharp angle it is maintained, I think in your latter description of using the sketch panel amounts to a pixel estimation if you use any gap closing or exp...

Re: Painting questions

Jan, when you load your colour model image into TVPaint, how do you use it in TVPaint when you are painting a scene? My issue is that it is hidden behind the scene on another tab, so every time you want to pick a colour, you have to select the tab with the colour model, then pick the colour, then s...

Re: Painting questions

Thought I'd explain myself a bit better, this uses the TVP "include borders" feature in bucket tool options: Outline cleanup: http://i.imgur.com/YyyWEIw.png Border line correction: http://i.imgur.com/Yjakeva.png Fill using Include Borders, it will automatically fill those colored lines as ...

Re: Painting questions

You should get into the habit of making sure your cleanup is clean, that means making sure everything is closed up, you can check this by doing an inverse fill, I'd say it's courteous if you work in a team for your colorists, also helps keep you sane if you color your own work. :mrgreen: I always pa...

Re: DigitalVideo Italy "Toonz" reborn open source software

Hmmm .. nodal compositing. Why not using Nuke or Fusion or Nadron ? Is there any advantage using ToonZ ? Nuke and Fusion are a bit overkill for frame by frame animation though. I've always used the inbuilt one in Harmony, then I switched to using Blender, then switched to AE now I've switched to us...

Re: DigitalVideo Italy "Toonz" reborn open source software

Thank you a lot Ten_zero. By the way I downloaded Toonz, but I don't understand its interface. Unfortunately all the manuals are only available in japanese and my japanese is limited to dog, cat, hello, sorry and thank you. Do you or anybody else know some basic tutorial in english? Yeah, I'm not s...

Re: DigitalVideo Italy "Toonz" reborn open source sofrware

Thanks ten_zero, your posts are always informative. :wink: Things are getting very interesting in the 2D animation industry. Krita will offer free animation with their natural drawing engine... Blender is implementing 2D animation which is free... Toonz will now offer a free, production proven suite...

Devil's advocate

Am I alone in thinking that animation is terrible? Apologies to anyone who works on the film Klaus but you couldn't cram more tropes in if you tried, right out of the 1950s Disney playbook. It looks like 2D trying to be CGI, the reverse of Paperman, they both share an identity crisis and they've suc...

Re: How would you achieve shading like this in post producti

Cel shading is simple to do but there is something people often overlook. DreamWorks painted their shadows in black and then lowered the opacity of the layer, it's quick, cheap and simple to do. But Studio Ghibli treats shadows independently, usually skin shadows are warmer than hair shadows or vice...

Re: TVP compared to Retas

The only other software I know of that utilizes color separation lines is CACANi. The problem with that though is that it is vector only and refers to the central vector line/path when making color fills and not the stroke/outline and since all paths must be closed it's impossible to workaround, the...

Re: TVP compared to Retas

I have a question : why orange should over filled the blue line ? What if there is a color (green, for instance) on the left : what color should over fill the blue line ? We overwrite the blue line when we choose to, usually at the beginning when we start coloring shadow. Remember in my TVP "i...
