Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I find my self in need of instruction on 'clean-up', using TVpaint. The "Bounce Ball" tutorial touches on it but I need more, a lot more if possible.

What kind of cleanup is your goal? Do you have an example? Maybe a picture somewhere in the www.

Tell me more:

Do you know how to do traditional pencil-on-paper clean up and you are retraining to do digital clean up with TVP ? Or are you trying to learn clean up technique from the start with TVP ?

Some of it's the same whether you are drawing with traditional materials or with a Wacom stylus (drawing is drawing is drawing) but some things are different. Things like you can zoom in close on certain areas of the drawing and the Smoothing controls in TVP's Shape Settings will also can make quite a difference when you are laying down a clean up line.
It might be easier on you if you're learning to do clean up for the first time on TVP , so you don't have to change your drawing habits . As for me I was trained in traditional clean up technique and it took a lot of work to retrain myself , to regain the kind of accuracy I could achieve with a pencil on paper .

Sorry I did not give more details about my set up. I am working with Standard edition 9.5 and I have replaced my old wacom with a Intuit4. (I love this new tablet)

I am staying with the basics, ball bouncing, to help me learn the features of TVpaint. The work is totally digital, no imported hand work.

Sense my work is just a circle, I have not posted it.

Clean-up might make an excellent tutorial, there has to be a number of different technics being used. Maybe I can come up with a stylist type technic...anyway.

If anyone knows of or finds a source that covers this issue, please let me know.

Thank you for the links. It is odd that I have never seen animationmeat and that ten commandment list is very good.
