: How can I animate images with a paper workflow instead of digital tablet? Not everyone has the possibility to use graphics tablets. I myself have one, but is in no way comparable to the precision

Anything is possible...

"The poor man's version":


Print yourself a ream of paper with registration marks on it. (Or buy some, though I'm not sure if such paper exists)
Draw your frame images.
Scan your frames.
Import into Photoshop or whatever other program you use to touch-up the images.
Proceed with the rest of your workflow as if you had created it digitally with a tablet.


If you have the budget, Horatio suggests a much better workflow using a camera and an armature rather than a scanner. He advises that a consumer-level DSLR camera with suitable lighting produces far superior results over a scanner, and the workflow is an order of magnitude faster. Photograph RAW if possible.
