This summer was a hell of a ride, at times I juggled 4 projects at the same time, which definitely is too much. I'm down to only 1 again, I'm relaxed, and I like to show off a bit.

This is just one sequence of one project. Very talkative, and in German, but you don't need to understand. Client wants portrait mode, and I hate that, mainly because I have to draw much more of the body and unimportant parts of the background like floor and sky, while at the same time I'm pretty restricted in terms of overall movement.
It's easy to spot which parts of the characters were done in which software: heads in Moho, rest in TVPaint. (I recommend to watch in Full Screen mode to see how much the outlines match (or not).) The TVP parts were imported as PNGs and re-animated in a switch layer. The heads can turn from 3/4 to 3/4, the guy can even tilt a bit.
I had much fun painting the BGs here, since I have my special foliage brushes and other tricks now in full effect. 20 to 30 minutes only for one BG.
The whole thing will go online for just a week in November. This is the 3rd year I work with this client, definitely favourite customer. I may delete the video later this year.

Re: Excerpt from newest project
Looks good. I was hoping that the basic skeleton and library would be eventually as useful as importing PNGs into a switch layer in moho... For this simple type of stuff, if one were easily able to set or roll through library images that were attached to a skeleton in TV paint, it would avoid having to go back and forth between the two programs entirely.
