Why we like it

A focused graph editor tool from Animation Store, part of a broader family of Blender animation add-ons by the same creator.

What is Draw Animation?

Draw Animation is an add-on for Blender that changes how you place keyframes in the graph editor. Instead of setting keys one at a time, you draw them, much like drawing on paper, giving a more direct way to shape f-curves and animation timing.

The add-on is developed by Animation Store and is also available as a feature of the Clean Graph add-on. It ships with documentation and a demo video for reference, and covers Blender versions 4.0 through 4.3 under a GPL license.

The developer maintains a range of related Blender animation tools, including Motion Path Pro, Pin Keyframe, Quick Cycle, Curve To Bone and Flowmotion, so Draw Animation can sit alongside a wider set of graph editor and animation utilities from the same creator. Links to those products and the demo tutorials are provided on the developer's page for anyone wanting to explore further.

Who is Draw Animation best for?

Draw Animation is best for blender animators who want to shape keyframes and f-curves by drawing in the graph editor.

How much does Draw Animation cost?

Draw Animation is completely free to download and use.
