I recently started using a feature within grease pencil which allows me to get smooth color transitions and soft blending, and I’m super proud of the results! I’m still in awe of what this tool is capable of, and I’m excited to keep exploring and of course sharing what I learn.

You saved me! Spent long hours looking to move and deform grease pencil strokes over a surface. You're the best!
I started watching your videos since the kombucha times... what a tracing vector it has been!
Probably not to most on topic, but I'm having a problem with the greae pencil line-art modifier. See, I'm trying to create simple wire-frame UI animations like what we see in classic sci-fi. I make the objects and the world a simple flat RGB black. Then add a colored line-art modifer over it. But no matter what I do, the outline is too dark. Can you help me brighten it up?
👍👍
I'm fairly certain this workflow could be made significanty less fiddly with a dedicated addon that directly turns selected greasepencil fills into a a pixel grid of the chosen resolution in place instead of going trough the extra step of rasterizing everything and then converting it back and forth. Hopefully someone will see this and consider working on it, it shows potential.
You realize that meta would have made hundreds time better if they invested in anti ai tech rather than generative ai?😂😂😂
Thank you!
Was this series continued? I cannot find the next tutorial.
Do you know where this option has gone in 4.2?
That's gold, thank you for sharing!
Happy it helps! I was so happy to receive this comment :D
Yahoo! Thank you!
Красиво! Не знала, что в блендере можно рисовать полностью в 2D
Can u reply my comment please

New to Grease Pencil and you are awesome!
Thank you! Best of luck learning grease pencil :D
🤔 mmm grease pencil... or stay in krita. I can't decide, could you tell me the benefits of moving to grease pencil.
Hi! In this video: czcams.com/video/LZP6M2a-QLQ/video.htmlsi=y16cpZiy_BToY3md I go over all the things that I think make grease pencil such a powerful 2D drawing tool. But don't forget that once you learn this tool, you can also combine it with Blender's other tools like 3D, animation, geometry nodes :)
Beautiful job! Thanks 😃
That is so cool, what a brilliant idea! I will likely not stray from my 2D pixel programs for paintings like this, but you are so smart and skilled for taking this idea so far, your art looks amazing!
Fair enough! But I appreciate you taking the time to check out the video, even if the technique isn't for you :) thanks for your comment
thx for a really helpful tutorial🔥
I'm happy it's helpful!
very very inspiring👏,
I found a morphing tutorial and created something like that in the past too but not with geometry nodes. The only thing to keep in mind while morphing is that the number of verticies stay the same. Hope this helps found it in google search czcams.com/video/mWXmSCFHdos/video.htmlsi=-B7pF7fFWFxtkOd6
you are truly insspiriing
I’ve been trying to recreate this look for ages! My method was to see if anyone had replicated Ae’s motion path tool in blender but using the build modifier is brilliant! Thank you!
So glad to hear it helps :D
Looks so magical! Great job!
Thank you!

Those paintings are gorgeous!
Thank you!
I've watched this and given up 15 times. Today is the day I watch it to completion AND make a 3D Bonsai. Viva!
I just bought your pack because I'm so fed up trying to figure out how to accomplish the watercolor look through procedural textures, and the authenticity of the textures I'm seeing in the brushstrokes so far just can't be replicated with all that confusing shader stuff. I have lots of experimentation ahead to figure out how to accomplish what I'm going for, but so far this looks promising. Only have a mouse at the moment, but if I get anywhere with this I'll definitely start considering a drawing pad!
Love it! Your energy is positively contagious, inspiring. ✨
I'm so happy to hear that! ✨
You always know that Sophie will find a way to push GP's capabilities towards the most inspiring thing you've ever seen
That's kind of you to say! But I'm also super inspired by all the other artists making incredible grease pencil stuff 😊
Great video Sophie! GeoNodes is the future and perfect mix with grease pencil! I just published a tutorial what you can do with it in blender 4.3, it's soooo good ❤
Thank you! Also I just watched your tutorial, what an exciting time for grease pencil! Makes me very happy I'm learning geometry nodes now, I think I'll be ready for when the update launches 🤩
@@SophieJantak Awesome! I can't wait to see what you come up! :) Devs are cooking a lot of cool stuff, there's so much it's hard to keep up, grease pencil will get A LOT of love in 4.3 🥰
This is interesting, I might actually start learning GN... I will try this & try to make something of my own.. The BIG problem for me is I cannot wrap my head around node based workflow, I can easily understand code based (python etc) workflow cause of my programming background..
Best of luck! That's interesting to hear why nodes isn't as intuitive for you, with your background. I wonder if there are instructors who approach geometry nodes from a more code-based mindset, maybe that could help
It took me ages to figure out, but the reason why the grease pencil objects are black in that viewport is because the "vertex paint opacity" is turned off. To fix, go to "vertex paint" mode, and click the greasepencil button at the top next to the viewport overlays buttons, and you should find the "vertex paint opacity". It's buried in there!
Wow I had no idea that dropdown even existed!! Thank you for sharing, this solved it for me
Hmmm, regular 3d objects require a set material node to tell the instances what colour to be. Not sure about GP objects tho
Interesting, I didn't know that, I haven't tried using 3D objects as instances yet. So far, it seems like my GP instances are the correct color without additional nodes
yaayy finally!! needed this
Happy to hear that! Hope it helps
This is sooo cooool! I love your videos, you do stuff with blender I never would have thought of. Plus the concept for the art piece is so cute too. I like that you show when things are difficult in your process too
Thank you, I'm glad you like it! This piece was more personal than I tend to make my art, so I'm happy it resonated ❤ And I'm glad you appreciate seeing the struggles too :)
bloody brilliant👍👍👍
Thanks!
The way you are using Grease Pencil to adapt Blender to recieve brushstrokes as data to make it more intuitive for artists is what I am trying to do with Geometry Nodes. Since you are exploring that field, I would like to share my attempts. czcams.com/video/1XI--aj_EAc/video.htmlsi=zo-IAVggzRnw2mIm
Wow!!!Your work is very inspiring I will try to apply it to my work, thank you.
Thank you! I hope it helps
Man, you're like super talented 💯✨
did you tried Linux operation system before does Linux OS suitable for Graphic designer? I'm a graphic designer and using Linux for above a couple of years it's charm and fast I have replaced most graphic tools to Open-source graphic tools like (Gimp replaced to Photoshop) - (Inkscape replaced to Illustrator) - (Krita for drawing) -(blender replaced to Cinema4D). I replaced all my graphic tools to this Open-source apps that I have noted above. best wishes...
That's great! I also love open source, I use Blender and Krita, and recently a program called Scribus for when I need to prep files for printing. Though I'll admit I've never looked into Linux and am not sure I ever will, but it's great to hear that it works for you! Thanks for sharing :)
Every Sophie post is a must watch
I appreciate that! :D
You're brave as heck, Sophie. I'm STILL too petrified to learn Geometry Nodes. But, with this video I think I can muster the courage. Thanks for inspiring. :D
Thanks, haha! I hope it helps to see my honest journey, complete with my many moments of confusion 😅 Honestly, I've been working on my next project, and it's going so well! I'm already having so much fun with geometry nodes, so I really recommend giving it a shot
I looked into the problem you had at 05:33 and I believe it is a bug, I created a bug report which can be viewed on the blender website number #124477 Edit: I found a fix it here are the steps: 1: In the Geometry Nodes workspace select a grease pencil object and go in to draw mode. 2: Click on the Overlay grease pencil options menu (it is in the top bar of the 3d viewport one icon to the left of Toggle X-Ray and one to the Right of Show Overlays and looks like a loop with square ends) 3: Under vertex paint set opacity to 1.0 instead of 0.0 Hope this helps :)
You are an inspiration .. I am following your journey since the beginning .. :) .. I too made a part time career in 2d animation using Grease Pencil .. learn so many things from you .. :)
That's awesome to hear! Happy to have helped :D
Thank you for watching! There are resources linked in the description, and here's a look at what I'll be tackling next month: www.patreon.com/posts/july-project-106992552
I really enjoy watching and learning from your applications of Blender from an illustrator's perspective . Keep up the great work!
How did you do that ?? Its so pretty and cute❤
