Why aren't you making your own animations, /co/?

I dont know whose huge tits j want to animate. Not that the character has to have them in the first place but still.

Well what's a good easy software to do it?
I just want the onion layers and some sort of customizable brushes, but all the options in /ic/ have tons of shit I don't think I'll use.

That's the problem, you retard. What you do is not impressive, it's just verbal diarrhea.
>>
>>151773147
Use Flipbook on Sketchbook Pro Desktop edition. Krita is nice too.
>>
>>151773147
Krita should be enough.

I've been trying TVPaint for a bit, there's a ton of shit only the industry cares about in there but the drawing tools are decent and sometimes you think of something unusual and retarded that would look cool and take forever to animate but it turns out they already implemented a way to do it years ago.

Industry doesn't matter. Skill doesn't matter, Style doesn't matter. FPS, technical skill, funding, none of it matters.
Story does.
If you got something to tell, you'll find a way to do it. Even if it's filming paper cutouts on popsicle sticks.

they have an entire tool to detect hole patterns in animation clipboards and align them automatically when you scan a thousand pages, I'm fairly sure only actual studios need this shit.

Creation gives humans purpose.
If you don't like that think of it as a rebellion.
At the end of the day, it's only for your own benefit, and no one else's.
I persevere despite everything, and generally ignore the online world.

Forget drawing tutorials and watch sculpting tutorials. You’ll learn anatomy a lot faster, especially if you actually get into Blender (or Nomad) and sculpt it.
And personally I think sculpting is more fun, but the anatomy knowledge is very helpful for 2D.

Looking up text books with detailed human muscle anatomy drawings helps give you an idea of where everything is supposed to sit when you start adding flesh.
>>
>>151777064
>>151777249
The medium does have to be a drawing, Lee Hardcastle got famous using Playdoh.
But if you do want to improve, use references, hell, trace if it helps you see what an artist is doing.
Good artists borrow, great artists steal. I mean look at AI "artists". Outright plagiarism right now is going to lead to something useful eventually. Not only memes and gooning slop. I hope it can improve to a point where it's a useful artist's tool and not randomized gibberish.

Yes, CGI is just fancier, more expensive stop motion.

I'm kinda stuck right now because on one hand I have a finished film animatic that's ready to be animated but on the other hand my unpaid animation internship requires me to work until the summer and I'm an unpaid animator on a popular indie series

I haven't seen an honest to G_D wojak in a long ass time, it's all been basedjaks and I hate it. Also, true. That book is nothing but a meme for there's no shortcuts to #gettinggud at art
>>151777064
Get these books [you can look up the PDFs with a simple search]:
>Morpho Anatomy for Artists: Simplified Forms
>FORCE Drawing Human Anatomy
>Figure Drawing: Design and Invention
Pick a subject for the day and try drawing it without tracing, only from memory. Also do this exercise with your favorite artists' pieces. It's not an easy route but who's kidding; art is not for the faint-hearted. The only people who survive this business learn that there's no shortcuts and keep drawing despite the pain.
Good luck you poor bastard.

Literally me, except I work two jobs so I rarely get a day off where I have the mental energy to do anything meaningful.
