Blender Grease Pencil

Overview

Create 2D drawings and animations in Blender's 3D space using the Grease Pencil system and Python. Build strokes from point data, manage layers and frames, apply GP-specific modifiers, and animate 2D content — all scriptable from the terminal.

Instructions

1. Create a Grease Pencil object

import bpy

# Create a new Grease Pencil data block and object
gp_data = bpy.data.grease_pencils.new("MyDrawing")
gp_obj = bpy.data.objects.new("MyDrawing", gp_data)
bpy.context.collection.objects.link(gp_obj)
