In this video, I create a linocut look using the layer blend modes, compounds, and layers to contain the effect.
I will show you how to create a digital design that looks (somewhat) like a linocut print without the cuts, the tools, the paint, and the mess. Lines drawn with the pencil tool are placed in a layer set to 'erase' and will be cut out of the silhouette [a compound shape] to display the paper texture below.

This tutorial from 2Dgameartguru.com continues the redesign of the caveman game character from the two earlier videos.
The video shows how to arrange and export the parts in Inkscape and take them into the animation tool. In Spine, I set the key pose, add the bones and create a simple idle and walk animation.
[Spine can be found here: http://esotericsoftware.com/ ]
The same can be done in similar software to Spine. Spriter or Dragon Bones come to mind [skeletal-based animation and editors are also implemented in some game engines].
