Good to see you here, David! ... My main interest is in hand drawn character animation , but I do find that I am increasingly having to deal with 3D objects combined with hand drawn , so this is interesting to me . ... I believe the tools for 2d and 3d are going to merge, one way or another. (Blende...

Hello Praxinos! Veteran TVPaint user here and very interested to see what new magic the team is creating. The first demo looks very interesting, especially that new brush engine. And an article I read somewhere where it was mentioned that 2d animation functionality might be in the future.... So I th...
