Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

This is my own project, I hope to finish it this year.

The wolf is entering the house:

TVP makes it so easy to animate shadows and even textures. It's so much fun to add these little details. And the wolf starts showing some personality.

You have to learn the grid. Start with a simple subject, like inside a room which is just a box. You'll notice there's red and green grid lines. A red vanishing point is orientated 90° to a green vanishing point, there are 4 vanishing points in the grid (half a green one left and right). I've named ...

Just a background, completely done in TVP except the floor (that was watercolour on paper). Very traditional.

Thank you very much for all your suggestions, I've forwarded them to my illustrator friend.

Uhm, the Paper on/off button? Right in the Tool panel?

Oh, I forgot to mention that the last missing percentage of opacity might come from using a Paper texture?

Svengail: This depends very much on the bitmaps you use, and the spacing (step) of the brush. The more overlap, the less opacity percentage you need because it will already add up to 100% in the overlapping areas. The first example with the airbrush uses a relatively small step size, so even 75% pre...

Ah, mistake in the same area: you can't get 100% opacity from something which isn't 100% opacity, like the bitmaps in your brush. Have a look: I made this brush from scans of a real sponge, the bitmaps are 100% each. I've sorted them from light to strong pressure (on paper), set the animation to pre...

Is it possible that you exported the wrong brush? When I install the file you attached, I get this: It's just an airbrush setting, not a Custom Brush.

Anyway, try the same profile trick with the Pressure in Opacity in your Custom Brush.

Hi Joanna,

1. You need to set the Power to 100%, otherwise you'll never get 100% opacity.
2. Click on the "P" besides Power, select "Profile Editor", and adjust the curve to something like my attached screenshot.
3. Done.

Nathan: do you use that?

I know that some of you use additional controllers which can be programmed to emulate keyboard shortcuts and so on. A friend of mine would like to try this, but I'm lost at finding any of these in this forum. Could you recommend some or point me at a good source for this? I even don't know the exact...

OK, let's test Vimeo's payed-for embed.

Square pixels, which is "Pixel Ratio: 1.0". Everything HD is that.

Also consider whether you deliver the final broadcast tape (with sound) = unlikely, or just animation which will go into some video editor.
