Back on my personal inkto-code-tober miniquest (draw+code) 1 Dream - Hooked on a thought amplifying machine, a boy defy the law of physics. Devlog: - Fixed a bug on my 'quick render' addon (export in one click) pullusb.gumroad.com/l/quick_render #greasepencil #b3d #b2d #inktober2023

Inkto-code-tober 2 - Spiders - Threaded bank accounts ! Devlog: Made myself a one push "ready to draw" button: + Set Pen brush Opacity to 1.0 + Disable pressure + Disable "Use light" on all GP + Use Lasso select tool in edit + etc... #inktober2023 #greasepencil #b3d #b2d

Inkto-code-tober 4 - Dodge Went a bit overboard for this one... I should explain my #inktober2023 challenge variant ! It's just doing it normally, using Blender Grease pencil, while coding tools or improving workflow whenever possible. Hence the "devlogs" in posts #b3d #b2d

Inkto-code-tober 14/15 mix - CastleDagger - A noble weapon ! Devlog: Added a direct stroke thickness tweaking using "Alt + S + drag" within #greasepencil draw mode. Will be added in my gp draw transform addon : blendermarket.com/products/greas… #b3d #b2d

My #greasepencil addon 'GP draw transform' just got updated to 1.2: + New feature : Thickness tweak on "Alt + S + Drag", only target stroke materials, demo in attached video. + Fix: All features now respect material hide/lock states blendermarket.com/products/greas… #b3d #b2d

My Blender addon "GP draw transform" now respects autokey ! pullusb.gumroad.com/l/gp_draw_tran… blendermarket.com/products/greas… A "frame hint" can be enabled to show when a key is created. See attached demo: making a fancy monkey without leaving draw mode using the addon. #b3d #greasepencil

A cool short film made with Blender grease pencil, go watch it while it's online! Working on it had been a really nice and smooth experience, thanks to the great team at Autour de minuit. #b3d #bd2 #greasepencil

WARNING: Using Geonode Tools deletes all shapes keys on your objects, even if you just pass the Geometry (we found this out the hard way mid-production)Anyone has any workaround for this bug? This makes Tools unusable in production settings, unfortunately. #b3d Simon Thommes
