Great. Correct me if I’m wrong but won’t a quicker way to place the origin to an object be to select the object in object mode then click d object tab near d top panel, then click on set origin, then finally click on origin to geometry?
How would you rig with bones if you have whole arm as one whole object? Would I have to use both bones and lattice modifier? What if your whole character is one object, not separated, how would you use bones and lattice then? I appreciate your input and your videos, thanks for creating them
OK, so if you draw the entire character it might be a better idea if you use frame by frame. But if you just want to move a certain part for example the arm, you might just create the bones. as I show you in this video: ruclips.net/video/UC_eycw20J4/видео.html I haven't gone over lattices but Yes, that is another way. Hope this helps 👍
How can I create a single object from my 2D lines and fills like you did? Suppose I painted an ear with a black line and added a brown fill. Now I want to turn this into an object.
Every Grease Pencil stroke is its own object. Just go to Object mode, Add menu > Grease Pencil Stroke to add another "Grease Pencil Object" and draw the other ear. Hope this helps.
Incredible as always. I would like to have you animate the character with bones in your next video rather than parenting.I find the bones easier out of the two. Would it be possible to animate by sticking on either of the two or is it necessary that one should master the 2 methods? And how did you created the pivot points in the parenting method-plz explain? Waiting for more GP videos,,,,,As the name suggests I'm learning t animate❤..... Thank you,
Bones it is! you should learn both methods but master the one that is more useful to you and your animations. You can see how I move the origin point (Pivot point) in this video. ruclips.net/video/NgkIVOeuMwY/видео.html Time 5:52 Thanks!
As always, clear, precise and very helpful! What are the dotted lines that appear when the bone armature is animated? It looks like they indicate the first position of the armature, but I'm not sure what they're supposed to do.
@@Learn2Animate Many thanks! Someone with lots of time and energy should go through your videos and create an index of all your tips. It would be very valuable; I'm pretty sure you could sell it to a lot of us.
I have a video explaining the process: ruclips.net/video/YGcHqRg9oQc/видео.html But you do not have to download from the internet. You can draw these also: ruclips.net/video/gRjdlnMJ6Pg/видео.html Hope these help. 😎👍
Hi, thanks for the tutorial again .. My work is fine until 10:31, i dont know why in my vertex groups show nothing like the upper arm, lower arm and wrist. Do you know why it can be happen Sir ? Thank you
When you Parent the bones to the body parts, you need to select "With Empty Groups" This option is what creates the vertex groups. 8:15 Let me know if this helps. 😎
I can't even get to the same menu as you at the beginning. I can't move the rotate tool is just stay in the middle and rotate the whole image around. the stroke icon doesn't change, how do you get the curve options, its nowhere...wth? And when you say you have a video explaining that...what video are you talking about? ty.
so when I say "I have a video explaining that" I was referring to the pivot point. so this is the video: ruclips.net/video/NgkIVOeuMwY/видео.html @5:50 You can convert curves to grease pencil in the object menu > Convert to > Grease Pencil. Hope this helps.👍
I imported the arms in from an SVG. Here is the file for the whole character. www.dropbox.com/s/s45w1q8qrwxib8c/Character%20Rig%20GP.blend?dl=0 Enjoy! 😎
Great work!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!! One question: how do you import the character by layers? Is there any web where I can download some asset to start playing? Thank you again in advance!
@@Learn2Animate thank u very much! I've downloaded the character but I dont really know how to extract the parts properly and convert them in svg. I'll have to work on it. Thank you again!
@@Learn2Animate Oh... Apologies. I’m not aware of the terminologies. I was meaning how to blend two different scenes from different backgrounds ... compositing... So sorry... Was just a suggestion.
@Dileep K, There is a compositing feature in Blender but I am not covering that for now. Hopefully in the near future I can make a tutorial on compositing. Thanks
This video teaches you the basics. you can use this technique to apply it to every part of the body. I did it with an arm, but that could be a finger, a leg, a neck or any jointed limb. You can apply this to the joints in the fingers, although the angle of the hand matters. hope this helps.👍
Do you recommend Blender Grease Pencil as a viable replacement for softwares like Spine/Moho studio ? I would like to use it for 2D Bone rigging animation development for Game dev. I like that it is free but I am not sure how accessible and artist-friendly it is...
I am not familiar with Moho studio, but Blender is a very powerful 2D/3D animation program. One of the advantages of Blender is the fact that you can use the 3D features to add dimension to your animations. ruclips.net/video/T5ERy-22nuc/видео.html Hope this helps. 👍😎
I didn't create the character, I downloaded it. But here is a tutorial on how you can illustrate this. Pretty easy: ruclips.net/video/gRjdlnMJ6Pg/видео.html
@@Learn2Animate It could be a lot quicker with less clicks and even more control. I won't accept that that's the most efficient rigging system for good 2d binding. No freakn way.
Rigging is very complecated topic but after watching this viedo it became easier to me. Thanks man
You are most welcome! 😎👍
Thank you!
You're welcome! 👍😎
Great clip. Parenting is the way to go. I was exited when Flash introduced bones in CS4, but I've never liked how it worked. Thanks again!
Awesome! Glad I could help. 👍 😎
Awesome lecture, very clearly explained, thanks so much for sharing 🥰🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure 😊 😎 👍
thank you for this beautiful playlist, will like to have a tutorial series for a short story in 2d using blender
i was waiting for this tutorial thank you
You're welcome 😊. I am goin to do one rigging the entire character.
Thanks so much I’m going to try tomorrow
Thanks, Have fun! 😎
@@Learn2Animate thanks u too ❤️❤️❤️
Great. Correct me if I’m wrong but won’t a quicker way to place the origin to an object be to select the object in object mode then click d object tab near d top panel, then click on set origin, then finally click on origin to geometry?
You are correct! Sometimes there are more than one way to do things. Thanks! 👍
@@Learn2Animate 👍🏼
wonderful
Thank you! Cheers! 😎. 👍
Amazing tutorial!!
Glad you think so! Thanks 👍 😎
Very very thankyou so much
very very thank you
Most welcome! 👍 😊
Great vid. I guess I'd vote for bones, since it seems like a more explicit feature.
Thx.
Thanks for voting, Rigging the full character due out tomorrow morning.

Your explanation can make any subject easier...
Thanks 🙏😊
One question Can we make bitmap like this instead of vector object?
Yes you can. The only thing is that in might have to be PNG with transparencies.
before Started rigging, how u imported hand as grease pencil.
I have a video explaining the process: ruclips.net/video/YGcHqRg9oQc/видео.html But you do not have to download from the internet. You can draw these also: ruclips.net/video/gRjdlnMJ6Pg/видео.html Hope these help. 😎👍

@@Learn2Animate its help ! Thanks Sir
i would have saved my tons of time if i have watched this video first
Can I import an Illustrator Vector file (layered) here in Blender for rigging? Or you need to draw everything here in Blender? Thanks
I believe you can. I imported this from illustrator but don't remember if it was in layers.
I can't even get to the same menu as you at the beginning. I can't move the rotate tool is just stay in the middle and rotate the whole image around. the stroke icon doesn't change, how do you get the curve options, its nowhere...wth?

Yes, Here is the video that explains that: ruclips.net/video/HlAiB8_tH6o/видео.html Let me know if this helps and pls consider subscribing. 😎👍
@@Learn2Animate thank you so much for the reply! I subscribed ever since I learned about blender. You are awesome!
Did you draw both of the arms or imported them as objects, I am confused sir.
I imported the arms in from an SVG. Here is the file for the whole character. www.dropbox.com/s/s45w1q8qrwxib8c/Character%20Rig%20GP.blend?dl=0
Enjoy! 😎
@@Learn2Animate Thanks a lot
My pleasure.😎
Great work!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!! One question: how do you import the character by layers? Is there any web where I can download some asset to start playing? Thank you again in advance!
I got this from freepik.com for free! I import the character together once it is in Blender, then I break up the character into layers. 😎
@@Learn2Animate thank u very much! I've downloaded the character but I dont really know how to extract the parts properly and convert them in svg. I'll have to work on it. Thank you again!
Here is a video explaining this. ruclips.net/video/Ef2tXezRBRI/видео.html Let me know if this helps. 😎
Could I have some new grease pencil video suggestions please ? Could you do videos on tracing images to grease pencil, rotoscoping, vfx in Blender?
This video is on rotoscoping. Hope you find this helpful:

Bro how to create this character
I didn't create the character, I downloaded it. But here is a tutorial on how you can illustrate this. Pretty easy: ruclips.net/video/gRjdlnMJ6Pg/видео.html
What a freakn hassle.
Assigning vertex groups? Good grief.
Blender has to simplify this nonsense.
I agree, I wish there was an easier way. But remember, the more automated the process the less control you have. This gives you all the control.
@@Learn2Animate It could be a lot quicker with less clicks and even more control. I won't accept that that's the most efficient rigging system for good 2d binding. No freakn way.
thank you
