    I felt compelled to share my utmost excitement after watching this tutorial on Cartoon Animator 5's 2D character rigging. The experience was nothing short of awe-inspiring! The tutorial instructor's mastery and genuine enthusiasm for the software were infectious. Witnessing how effortlessly they brought characters to life left me in utter amazement.
    Cartoon Animator 5's user-friendly interface and seamless integration with various assets showcased a whole new world of creative possibilities. The powerful bone system and pre-made templates made character rigging look like an art form in itself. It was pure joy to see how natural and lifelike the characters movements became!
    This tutorial has sparked an immense passion within me to explore the untapped potential of Cartoon Animator 5 for my own projects. I firmly believe that with this software, any artist can embrace their storytelling dreams and unleash creative marvels like never before.
    I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the talented team behind Cartoon Animator 5 for crafting such an exceptional tool that fosters creativity and pushes the boundaries of animation. Your dedication to empowering artists is truly commendable!
    Thank you for this inspiring tutorial, and I eagerly look forward to embarking on my own animation journey with Cartoon Animator 5 by my side.

      @@bojanboli4814 I agree. The characters are limited to what I will call "lacking in artistic style". They are fun, and good for learning, but if you want to make your own stories, there is a disconnect on how to create characters from scratch. They are improving, but it's a process that needs to be easily taught. Something many community members are working on, but Reallusion only seems to care if you are a huge influencer already. :/

    Finally, a proper CA5 tutorial other than the ones at Reallusion. Looking forward to the next parts. I have a question though. Most character creation tutorials end up with characters with no line-art. Is that harder to accomplish in CA5?

    • @Boxels
      @Boxels  Před rokem

      Line art is tricky even for pro studios, but tools like Toon Boom have ways to fix this in their node editros. With CTA it's not something that's easily fixed if at all, so you will most likely see line-less characters in CTA. Would be cool if they implemented an easy node editor to compensate for illustration lines. They are doable, I have a few in my store, but they are high end rigged charactesr to look good.
