That sounds very much like my son, now 17 - his drawing is amazing, and he
is studying animation (among other things) at college. He says:
"All the free 2D animation packages suck. Flash is expensive but very good
- it takes some getting used to, but there are probably hundreds of online
tutorials.
"If your brother wants to get into 3D, look at Blender, 3DStudio Max,
Cinema 4D, or Maya." (Apart from Blender, which is free, these are all
pretty expensive.)
He adds that drawing on a computer is way harder than drawing on paper!
