This was the clearest explanation so far that I’ve come across. Thanks for posting! The biggest mental leap for me is keeping the separation of grease pencil dope sheet vs regular dope sheet.

[jschleifer]

That falloff manipulation.... holy moly!

[jameswilson]

That multi frame trick my goodness such a great little tool. Look forward to try it next.
Thanks again for your tips and happy new year!!!

Wait what... You can convert 3d to grease pencil?!?! That's very cool...

The one thing I've seen you didn't cover is if you were drawing those beautiful balls on paper or in another raster drawing app, you can import them and convert images to grease pencil

[antonioya]

Luciano, you missed the Interpolate tools... and we are working to improve these tools.

[MetroTechGamer]

"i should lose some volume in rl!" xD i love your humor!

[MKCrystal]

Thank you for this, Luciano. I am an inexperienced visual artist venturing into Blender. This helps a whole lot. Subbed for more content. Thank you so much

Getting just the outline from a mesh converted to GP is actually already implemented. You even used the correct toggle (Only Seam Edges). Thing is, default objects don't have seams when first generated. That's why it converted with all edges outlined anyway. So if you want an outline, you need to pop into edit mode and alt-select a loop going around the sphere relative to the camera and mark it as a seam (Ctrl-E > Mark Seam). Then Only Seam Edges will actually do something.

The multiframe legit blew my mind though XD

Well that was fun...well explained. It brings me back a few decades. Thanks for sharing.

[pixelwrinkly]

if there's one guy who could teach us how to rig a grease pencil object it's LollypopMan
just saying ...
many thanks for sharing your knowledge
wishing you all the best for the year ahead

[DevJeremi]

This video should be more popular, most video I saw only mention Interpolation in basic way.

[ValuStudios]

That's my favorite tool in Blender.
I have so much fun with it.
Loved the video. Happy new year my friend.

[shonsoul]

thanks man that made sense than other tutorials

[davidwilliams]

This was Great. Lots of good Help. Thank you for going into so much detail while still keeping it interesting.

Now in blender 2.8x / 2/9x you can add Grease Pencil Line out modifier to 3D object

[anmol]

hi, one query I have like we can draw and make any object right the question is we can animate that drawing with a keyframe by pressing the forward arrow but instead can we draw on a single frame and after just wanted the automation of that drawing which made only on a single frame and getting the 2d video animation from that frame in simple words can we extract the animation of grease pencil which drew on a single frame?

[kadzaitactual]

Thank you so much. Exactly what I was looking for!

[michaelearnest]

That looks cool, thanks for the demonstration, Is there any way we can see the onion skin in object animation mode you are explaining from 9.35 to 11.45 in your video?

#6 weight paint 2D grease pencil to an armature, #7 deform 2D grease pencil with a lattice

[learningd]

Like your videos a lot. I learn so much from them. You're awesome! 👍💪
