To be fair, having each element in a separate layer was what Illustrator did all the time.

Just did a quick test. - You can group shapes/layers in Affinity. - In Moho, Import gives you the option "consolidate layers". I got everything neatly arranged in a group layer, but some shapes were combined into one layer, others remained separate. I guess Moho groups them according to ba...

Best face rig in MOHO I've seen so far, everything's independent.

Some stuff we rarely think of checking: is your mouse/tablet working correctly in other programs? Any flaky USB ports?

Manually.

Depending on your layout, you also could put your character in one layer and set it to "immune to camera", which will move everything else around, but this might give a very mechanic result.

Have you tried "show all bones" in the bones menu?

Having a 30-sec-scene is common in my kind of work, so I understand the OP's wish. However, in praxi (if I dont use batch render) most often I hit render , only to notice a serious blunder in the first second the window pops up: forgot to re-activate a layer or something like that. Then I just stop,...

No.

Lots of different ways to do this, however, they have one thing in common: you have the original layer, plus one or more FX layers over and under it. Usually I start with just duplicating the original, then layer blur it. Just play around a bit with blur and opacity settings and blend modes.

Great work. Any chance to see the complete first one (Polvo) online?

Agreed. In real life lots of sentences require no lip movement at all. The anime way with just closed - half open - scream works for a lot of scenes. And bear in mind how old those Preston Blair drawings are: nearly 100 yrs now! We surely have changed taste and style a lot in the meantime. Animation...

No, as far as I understand Rhubarb uses the Preston Blair system, which means you need to name your layers exactly like that, with upper/lowercase. Layer order isn't used here. The other automatic lipsync is the one where you assign an imported sound file to the switch layer which will react accordi...

I just wrote about that topic here: https://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=216937#p216937 2: Automatic lip sync only relies on the position of the layers inside the switch layer. Closed mouth on bottom, most open mouth on top. 3: Good thinking. Put the different emotions switch layers into...

Usually a PNG image should be pretty reliable in terms of colour. Could you post an example image?
