My tumblr seems to have a problem with showing ask notifications properly. So sorry for replying so incredibly late (a whole week, wooph) to your question. You can now also have the first layer as a background, (which wasn’t available a year ago) whish makes some animatic and animation making much easier and saves up on space, instead of having one bg layer per frame folder, you can just do with one background image for one animation file. So for example, if I want to color my character’s eyes, hair and face, i can do all of those on separate layers inside a folder, under the lineart layer, even have the lineart colored via clipped layer and then repeat that in the next frame/folder without making a sparate file for the colors alone as backup.I still do backups myself because i’m paranoid about losing progress on big files, but on smaller animations (say 12-50 frames, 4 layers per folder), it shouldn’t be that much of a problem as long as the computer can handle it.
Coloring via bucket fill has also been made easier now thanks to the adding of Antialiasing (finally!!) and Close Gaps. All the folders act as normal folders would any other time, so you can use all the layer modes, clipping, alpha protect, watercolor effect, etc. so coloring suddenly becomes easier as you don’t have to hide any of the other layers or make separate files with flattened colored frames. You can also hide layers and you can use the fill bucket on any of a folder’s layers as if it’s a canvas on it’s own. so anything you put in the folder acts as as if it is one frame, like how one layer = one frame.
I don’t think i’ve seen any tutorials on folder usage yet, but it’s really easy to get used to.īasically, in animation mode(onionskin mode), each folder becomes it’s own frame. Anonymous asked: I need a tutorial on how to color animations without screwing them up?
