Hi,


I'm discovering tv paint.
Before to start with it, I want to know if I can use the soft to animate my draws respecting really style and aquarel aplication:
I want to make an animation movie with my notes of travels, and these kind of draws are with my notes.

There are some fonctions in the soft to do that?

Hi chloe, my favorite animation style!

Here's a sample of a"watercolor" painting my wife, Sandra made a few years ago:

By now the tools have improved further and more are yet to come. The question then becomes not how to get as close as possible to real-life watercolors, but how to set these drawings and paintings into motion. TVP solves these issues better than if you had to do everything on paper. Just recently a French animator/director (Fabrice might remember his name and the film) made a travelogue using in part TVP (he used several techniques, several artists and and several styles, but he chose TVPaint specifically for animating a watercolor look.)
BTW, all our films are made this way as well:

Hi Chloe, welcome to the TVPaint Community !

Your art is really nice, I'm sure you will love to animate your watercolours with TVP Animation. In fact, all you need is a little panel with watercolors. You can find more about it here. There also is another panel here.

Don't hesitate to download the trial version and this panel to make your own test. And of course, if you have any question, feel free to ask anything here !
