Creating a Batman Animated Scene in Blender Grease Pencil – Part 1: Drawing Batman

In Part 1 of this series, I’ll show you how to draw Batman in Blender Grease Pencil using the Draw tool, the Cutter tool, Materials, Masks, Sculpt brushes, and other Blender functionalities.

In future videos in this series, I’ll show you how to:

• Create a glowing moon and animated clouds using Blender Grease Pencil and Blender Nodes
• Draw background buildings in perspective using the Guides functionality
• Draw mouth substitutions and lip sync the drawings with audio
• Combine the final result with a similar Robin scene to create an animation
