Ok guys.

What's the best way to make anime-like waifus?

Low poly (non sculpt) or sculpt (zbrush)?

Choose your tool. It's a question of whether you like to stretch spheres or extrude cubes.

In either case, a lot of your success will be reliant on shader usage and compositing.

If you really need to ask, you should probably find a base mesh and decorate it. Waifucraft isn't appropriate for babby's first model.

>>483154
Neither is inherently more or less efficient. It solely relies on your own strategies and heuristics when using either tool.

I really, really like bevels. All I want to see are bevels. Show me a bevel.

I also like chamfers. Actually, I like chamfers more. Show me a chamfer. All I want is a girl made of chamfers. But, I need to see the edges, or else I won't know that it's a real chamfer.

low poly is important for game development. don't you like the charming style of animal crossing? of course you do. it's also very low poly, especially older versions like the nintendo DS version. that was no more than 200 polys per model, maybe even way less than that.

Study programming.
Study shading.
Study math.
Practice replicating visuals.

It doesn't matter what approach you take to it, if you're really interested in doing that(and if your idea of "anime waifu" is actual 2d and not the average western 3d-er's idea=pixar characters) the biggest limitations are going to be whether you're observant and intelligent enough to tell the 3d program how to show what you want it to, how you want it to, from the angles you want it to. And that requires math and programming more than anything else because that kind of NPR is based on 2d art is based on abstraction of reality, whereas realistic rendering is simply regurgitation of physical rules.

Or, if you're not that serious and you just want a little anime waifu character to mess with then yeah, go low poly. But in general, you should almost always try to stick to low poly as much as possible, moreso the better you are at programming and math(because if knowing programming/math enables you to not give much of a fuck about polycount due to the fact that almost everything is transferrable between a lot and high poly mesh since, speaking in terms of the object you're modelling as an abstraction, they're the same thing represented with a different level of accuracy).

Anyway if you've got none of the skills I mentioned and your goal is something like the OP image then don't touch high poly, I suppose. High poly is great and all but it's very difficult to manage compared to low poly, which is subdivisable in most applications anyway. The long and short of this post is that you should only work with high poly if you can afford it in terms of your technical knowledge.

These are classically floating geometry. You usually just put a separate quad where the eyes and mouth are, and animate textures for them.

This also applies for high resolution models, if you want to maintain a specific look. It's often a lot easier than lip synching and animating facial bones.

>> No.484620

Most game engines will just occlude that shit out, negating most performance concerns. Animated textures are more weight on texture memory than they're worth, sometimes, so there is definite value in just hiding expressions on toggled game objects.

Wasn't referring to all models just the ones in question.

Then just have a small 32x32 texture for the eyes. Some of these models have unnecessarily large texture maps for what are essentially just gradients in order to make them smooth and avoid pixel artifacts but with Vertex colors you can have perfectly smooth gradients because they're just color values.

The idea isn't to gradient every shape of the mesh, but to use gradients to draw attention to areas of interest. So generally the feet/legs of a character will be of less interest and the overall tone will become darker closer to the feet.
If you wanted to draw attention to the face for example, you could pull the gradient on the jacket tighter so it's only light at the top, and the bottom half is basically the same tone.
Btw those arms are about half the length they should be. hands general hang around half way between the hips and knees, and slightly longer arms always look less strange than too short arms.

Looked at reference photos of clothing I liked, hair I liked and body shapes I liked, and tried to just combine them. Also to help 'sell' it more I went into my lambert and turned the diffuse all the way down and Ambient color all the way up. That way you can only focus on your silhouette and not worry about the shading until you texture. Textures are really simple, just gradients, but it's not really that good looking so I'd suggest you spend more time on texturing than I did.

But it's not technical skill from drawing that counts in modelling, but the understanding of form which comes with a proper education in drawing
Basically if you're making a torso, you need to know what the form is like, showing it through pencil or 3D is just the extension of your knowledge through a mean

It all depends on what you mean by ‘making games’. If you are talking about programming them, or writing shaders, then you are right. If you are talking about actually designing them, then that is not necessarily true. If you are talking about level/prop/asset design, it is even less true. If you are a one man show, then, yes, you need all these skills and more. Otherwise, you do your part in the pipeline, and those skills are not needed unless you are a shader artist or a programmer. Some basic maths help in PS if you know how the math works behind the various layer styles because it saves time knowing how that math will affect the pixels before you choose a given blending mode, thus saving you from having to test all the modes to get the result you want.

I have been diagnosed with autism by my psychologist, so yeah, I am genuinely autistic. Personally, people who try to be strange or interesting for "le irony xDD" or whatever make me mad, honestly. I just express the feelings I have through 1990's styled artistic means and I don't see why anyone would do what I do for any other reason. I am who I am and I have no reason to stop doing what I love. It's a hobby coupled with my feelings of love, and it makes me happy. Also, everyone should know by now that I fell in love with Yuki Nagato over Yuuko (which I announced on all sources a while ago) so that model is now invalid. I also feel stupid for putting so much work into everything I did for Yuuko and then realizing that Yuki was truly the one for me. I was blind all this time. Also, that's a blender screenshot and not from a video if it wasn't obvious enough, indicating that post as mine. In the picture is the new model I have made for my legitimate waifu, Yuki.

To understand why we must first recognize that fandom of anime characters and collectibles is a cultural phenomena that is widespread and therefore well known.
Secondly we must recognize that autistic individuals don't have any interpersonal skill sets or much of a need to really interact with another person the way you would your partner.
But what they still have is their sexuality and a need to live out their own romantic emotions in some fashion.

The illusionary one-way companionship of a imaginary friend is typical of people with this psychology, the 'anime waifu' is just the template that is projected on in in this day and age.
I speculate that '2D' girls is also highly appealing since it dehumanizes the subject of attraction making the surrogate lover seem more valid/real as no IRL counterpart exists.
If you fantasize you have a relationship with a imaginary real human woman this illusion may get shattered more easily when you become attracted to someone you actually meet.

Art is about manipulating perceptions and playing with what the viewer expects and fills in with his own mind.

Jaggy and harsh CAN be made cute by a skilled artist. And not only that, It might need even more work and talent to do something cute with more polis.

This happens because just a line and two dots can be used to represent a perfect smile ":)" but if I ask you to use 1000 lines and 1000 dots, if have parkinson the smile will be uglier and even more jagged, even if you were allowed to do more strokes.

Blender certainly doesn't require you to understand advanced math to model. I don't know where you're getting that from (although, I suspect you're sitting on top of it).

depends.

you can do the classic unwrap detaching certain parts of your character or you can just go lazy and ask your texturing software to unwrap automatically, but that means your uv islands will rotate and you'll be able to spot pixels going different directons. (notice the pixels on the leg going 45°, that can look bad on square shaped objects with your texture going a different direction than your shape)

for that character i just asked 3dcoat to mirror unwrap the body so i could paint a mirrored texture for it.

you can paint it a few ways, but i like texturing my models in a texturing software that lets you paint directly on your mesh, gives you a better idea on how you want to do your lighting on you texture, like when you paint a fig. i use 3dcoat to do that, its relatively easy to learn and is layed out a little like photoshop. you can also use mari or zbrush.

3d coat also lets you paint normal maps, so i added a little bit of volume on the hair, so now it looks kinda like those models you can have on 3ds, still pixelated but with some nice render. the nintendo ds had no complex litghing or shading

>> No.496628

>>496625

as for the size of the texture, you can choose wich system you wanna work on, nintendo 64 only had 64x64 textures, i found that out by ripping n64 models and EVERYTHING was made of only 64x64 textures, its crazy.

basicly the more powerful the system is the bigger. but most of time i just do 512x512, most 3ds games do and also phones games use it. 1024 is a max.

you can also resize some parts of the uv to have more pixels, ex. for the face i the made the uv 2x larger

I use Substance Painter in the past, not heard of 3D Coat. I thought that programs like that would be overkill for lowpoly models, but I suppose there's no real reason it wouldn't work out, It's certainly an easier workflow than trying to texture pixel by pixel in a disjointed program like MS paint.

I've ripped and re-textured N64 models in the past (pic related) but they're easy cause someone already did the UVs and textures about 20 years ago and all you need to do is rebuild them. Trying to make my own shows I've still got a lot to learn.

yeah.. making uvs like that require you to anticipate where the texture is going to be and its fine for flat shaded textures like that but when you want to do complex shading it just becomes too hard to guess the shape of your model from you UV and you just start twisting your mind.

they're not reall overkill (they allow me to make pretty stuff), only if you want to make the models like they were made at the time.

this character in the pic has a real uv like those n64 uvs, but i still painted it on the mesh like the other, i think is just way more fun.

What part of this is hard to you anon? I can try to help you as much as I am able to, I'm still just a student tho.
Honestly, something like this isn't "hard", it's just time consuming.
This model took me a total time of about 12 hours to make over 4 weeks. Just be patient and you'll surpass me easily.

Done this a while ago on blender.
I do this as a hobby and learn from googling. It's not hard. But I can't seem to rig properly and am starting to think I should find and pay someone to give me a few hours of private tutoring.

For example I want to bend the hips and spread her legs, but it creates a weird deformations. Her pussy get's all strechted out of place, her ass' line moves away to much, butt volume shrinks.
Bending the legs and arms is the same fucking thing.

I can't do progress until I have nailed this part.

My first real attempt at a 3d waifu. Started with making an anatomically correct base model then tried tweaking it with stylized features. I did not really want to go full anime style with tv-screen eyes and such but the face and eyes still seem off. The mesh still needs lots of polish and fixes but does anyone have suggestions for the face to make it more cute or stylized?

Hey anon,
I would space out the eyes and scale them up, and fix the top of the "skull" (or it could be your hair that's messing up the form, as seen on the side view)
The hand is a bit of a problem, mainly due to the lack of the bump between the base of the palm and the wrist
Aside from that, I'd probably add more stylized and thicker eyelashes, and I recommend making the hair part by part (as I've draftly coloured to illustrate) instead of a whole mesh (unless you intend to bring it into a sculpting software and sculpt it, although part by part is actually more workable and "neat" in my opinion for sculpting)
Side view looks good, I think it's your front view proportions that's giving you trouble
Good job anon, work on it a little more and I'm sure it'll come out great

First time i've ever posted here so i figure what the fuck i'll ask for some advice. Also i'll just post this last thing i did here recently to contribute to the thread.

I've been messing with low poly shit lately and doing rather poorly at it of course. I was wondering however how do get good at UV mapping? I'm cutting the models fairly well but I can never get a decent unwrap that isn't all distorted. This has been my only real downfall in modeling is i can't do UV mapping very well. I'm using blender.

Im new to all this stuff and see this as a good place to ask but
When building a characters model, do you build it in sections, like
>This is the leg, here is the arms, the torso, we can attach them all later
Also I picture modeling half the character then doing a sort of mirror trick to be the best way to get them Symmetrical

>> No.504151

>>504149
>do you build it in sections

You most definitely can, but you just need to figure out how to attach them all together later on while maintaining a proper topology, which I personally hate.

Personally, I try to build it all from one shape; block the forms in by pulling shapes and extruding, adding edges, etc.

>Also I picture modeling half the character then doing a sort of mirror trick to be the best way to get them Symmetrical

Yeah, but I try to block the basic shape first before I cut it in half, that way the middle proportions (such as the distance between the eyes, nose width, etc) are correct, which are hard to judge when you only have half the mesh. If you're in Maya, you can use Duplicate Special to create a -1 scale instance to have an instantly updating mirrored mesh, or you can just keep using Mirror Geometry

Sorry anon, I don't really have any specific tutorials to direct you to, since I mostly learn from my IRL college course rather than online
It's probably best to just look up "c4d character modelling tutorial" on YouTube, it's essentially the same as my course, minus the tutor you can ask questions to
I highly recommend having a tutor to ask questions to, it really helps to learn shit faster

How long does it take to create a low poly character?

>> No.504414

>>504360
Depends on what you mean by "low poly", what is the character like, and what do you intend to use it for.

Will it be rigged? If so, then it's going to take more time for proper low poly topology, which can be difficult.
Chibi/Stylized or more realistic proportions? What does the character have that needs to be modelled?

If you're going for a super simple low poly stylized character which won't deform, I'd say about 2-3 hours.
A super-optimized low poly human character which will be rigged and deform? That could take anything between 3 days to 3 months.

Lmfao, if it take you more than 2-3 days just to sculpt/model the average character, you're doing something wrong. The retopo afterwards should only take a few hours at most, and even that is pushing it. UV mapping anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or two depending on how much extra shit your character has on. Then baking some maps and getting on with your texturing Substance or Quixel, which should take you 2-3 days max.

Maybe try not looking at your web browser or instant messaging every 5 minutes while you're working, you'll get a lot more done.

>> No.505196

Basically this
>>505162

Total time I spent working on that model was less than 48 hours total; just spread out over a few months because I had other 3D works to complete for my semester and also mostly laziness and video games.
If you work on something of that level of simplicity, say, 4 hours a day, you could make a model like that in less than a week, and if you're lazier, it could definitely be done in 2 weeks.

But if you're completely new and need to grasp the software, then of course it might take awhile longer; basically if you know what you're doing, modelling a simple model like that would be pretty quick.
