You'd expect better colordesign for a crowd funding project so much about color. The test looks weak, color hardly adds anything to the fun.

The lines certainly look more "creamy" to me :)

The Flash lines looked more like dried out bread from yesterday.
Now the lines look creamy soft and delicious like icing on a cake :mrgreen:

It looks more pleasant to me.

I slowed this video down to scope out the pen Simon Tofield uses. The Pentel EnerGEL RTX 0.7mm liquid gel pen is perfect for drawing on unlined index cards. I love the Simon's Cat series.

Does anyone at TVPaint know how to add updated information to Wikipedia ? On the Wikipedia entry for Simon's Cat , under "Production" it still says it is animated with Adobe Flash, no mention that they switched over to TVPaint.

Done, english and german.

I think the TVP article needs some updates and refinements.

Yes, definitely. The TVPaint Wikipedia entry seems to have last been updated as of 2011.

[EDIT: I note that the TVPaint Wikipedia entry has recently been updated to include developments since 2011 , up to and including the release of TVPaint 11. ]
