Pencil2D Animation

Pencil2D is a free and open source animation/drawing software for Windows, macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animation (cartoon) using both bitmap and vector graphics.

Nightly Builds

Using Pencil2D

Note that the following guides and documentation are outdated.

Pencil2D comes with a Quick Reference that you can use to familiarize yourself with the tools and functions at your disposal. After opening Pencil2D, you can access it through the main menu: Help > Quick Reference Guide.

We encourage you to visit our User Manual for a quick guide for novice users, then play around with the program – it's fun!

After you feel a little more comfortable with the basics, check out these tutorials provided by Pencil developers and users. While some of these resources might reference previous versions of Pencil2D, the underlying concepts are still the same.

If you encounter difficulty or have additional questions, we have a large community of users who are glad to help out. View the FAQ on our website or visit our discussion forums to post a new question.
