wacom is what all the cool kids have!
I just sketch everything in pink :/
yummy
That thin like looks like a pencil setting with no smooth applied almost.
Does kinda and you can sort of get the same effect with just the pencil tool, but for some reason I find the brush tool more natural to draw with and easier to manipulate.
wow nice, having to zoom in to get smaller brushes really was a pain in the ass. thanks for sharing this
yeah, being able to see the whole image makes life a whole lot easier.
Meh, I prefer when the brush size is thick.
Of course I've only made three flashes.
fair enough, in some ways the thicker pen size creates a nice style plus it keeps the file size down a bit.
I usually do 0 smoothing with pressure, but yea that's just me
you can have 0 smoothing but it can slow flash down a bit and create really sizey file sizes, then again, so does smoothing even at 34 but it makes flash run much better.
Haayyy, very cool! I may have to try this out :D
i don't have any of these issues, but i used to draw with thick lines, and now i think thin lines are the cat's pajamas. THE BEE'S FUCKING KNEES.
yeah, I was pretty much the same, until recently when I was cleaning up an animation and the result was really wiggly. If the roughs had been made with a thinner pen size the lines for clean up could have been more accurately placed.
Why doesn't simply zooming in to get a smaller pen size work anymore?
its not really ideal for rough animation, its far better to see the whole image you are creating rather then part of the image. Plus the amount of time you'd spend scrolling up and down your picture just to draw one frame would ruin the fluid movement of the animation.
Another great reason to buy a cintiq, that's 2,000 dollars or 100,000 pesos. sniff
the cintiq 12wx is cheaper so if you really wanted a cintiq but couldn't afford the more expensive model then I would recommend the 12WX.
will this work with my Trust Slimline Design TB-6300 Graphics Tablet
if it has something similar to soft and firm pen settings then yes. If it doesn't have these options then you'd probably have to draw everything very lightly to get the same effect. Give it a shot is all I can say really.
Will this work with my mouse?
if your mouse has pressure settings then yes! if the mouse doesn't have these settings then you'd probably have to stop feeding it until it does.
Flash sucks for drawing. As do all computer programs. I've decided!!
lol they do kinda, pencil drawings have a lot more life to them but it takes longer for them to get from roughs to cleaned up drawings though.

wow cool! nice find. do you recommend cintiq at all? i'm thinking about switching from intuos to cintiq
tyokio
YES, with a capital "go and get one now!" haha... For frame by frame animations its been an absolutely fantastic tool, allowing me to more accurately place inbetweens and work a lot faster then the days when I was using my old graphire tablet.
Now I've found out how to get a thinner size at a larger zoom in flash its only gotten more powerful.
