Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

This is very nifty, very much like Studio Ghibli.

This one is simply superb.

So it appears that the new version of Toon Boom has a feature that's just like the tool mentioned above.

I think the only major thing left that it needs is being able to work in a 3d space, like being able to integrate it with Blender.

We (so including the dev team) try to make the best 2D Animation software ever. So in that context, there are a bunch of options & features that need to be added, fixed, created ... before modeling, rigging, animating and rendering in 3D. While I agree with that, things like a 3d camera would nice ...

Well, honestly, my first thought is : "Does VGmaster9 go on the Toonboom forum and post about when TVPaint releases a new version and ask what are people's thoughts about it ?

This may very well end up being a direct competitor to Harmony and TVP, and free no less.

VGmaster, do you have any reliable source about the use of TVPaint in the making of Cuphead ? I asked on Cartoon Brew if it was animated with Toon Boom, and someone said, "It was drawn and inked on paper, colored in photoshop, then assembled in tv paint . Though some animators used something else. ...

I dunno if the game Cuphead counts, while it was drawn and inked on paper and colored on Photoshop, it was scanned on TVP.

Kept forgetting to show this animation test for Helios.

Here's another trailer.

Anyone heard of this? It's apparently a 2d version of the program Shotgun. It should be a handy tool for 2d animators.

Would be more convenient if they used TVP for the hand drawn animation as well, just me.

This should be an interesting alternative to Meander. It's called Helios, which is used by the animation group Duo Cartoonist. It's done using Toon Boom Harmony.
