Touch up Character with Skin Details and Clothing LibraryДЇinally using SkinGen, apply a skin base, normal maps, and any other details you think are necessary for your character, as well any hair, clothing or accessories within your library to accommodate your character design. In this case I had to correct the teeth and the lips. Make any other adjustments necessary to the mesh. This will align the other eye to the proper position.

Also choose Symmetry and the direction you want the symmetry applied to. When youвЂ™ve done so, go to вЂAdjust Bones вЂ™, which will align the bones to the mesh. Select the eyes, and in Edit Mesh mode, move at least one of the eyes into place. If this happens to you, itвЂ™s easy to fix. This is probably due to something I neglected during the process. When I imported the character, the eyes didnвЂ™t follow correctly. Tips in Eye Relocation, Teeth and Lip Correction Check the вЂ Adjust Bones to Fit Morph вЂ option, and if you want to see immediate results, also check the вЂ Auto apply to current character вЂ™ option. Import the OBJ file under Target Morph, and the OBJ key should be loaded automatically. Import the saved character using the Morph Slider Editor. Import Character in Character Creator as Flexibly Controllable Morph Slider

When the character is ready for export, choose the вЂ Export Character Morph вЂ™ option from the CC3 menu provided by the Blender Auto Setup add-on. As Character Creator provides most of the normal maps through SkinGen, thereвЂ™s less need to sculpt in high resolution as you would in a typical creation process. I mostly use the Grab, Inflate, and Smooth brushes with symmetry enabled to relax the stretched vertices and move everything into place. You may find a more manageable way to move the mesh around. I found the easiest way to set up my proportions was to go into Edit mode, select the vertices, with symmetry enabled on the X axis, and move large portions of the mesh to approximately where I need them to be. I would call this step a problem solving exercise. It also generates the necessary OBJ key file when you export the file. This imports the mesh as a single object with the appropriate groups for import back into Character Creator. In Blender, with the Blender Auto Setup add-on installed, go to the CC3 tab and choose the ' Import for Morph ' option. Import Character in Blender via Auto Setup I start by exporting the CC3+ base mesh as a Nude Character in Bind-Pose, which can be accessed by the OBJ export options.

You can follow me by using the free trial of Character Creator.

In this video and text below, I'm going to walk you through some of my steps. I also use a free Blender add-on called ' Blender Auto Setup ', which is developed by Victor.Soupday, to simplify the process of file transfer between two programs. Character Creator supports base character with evenly-distributed quad surfaces, which allows me to touch up the mesh in Blender based on this to create a facial and body animation ready character. IвЂ™d like to share how I create an exaggerated character using Character Creator and Blender. I'm a digital freelancer specialized in illustration, graphic design, and 3D modeling. Greetings, my name is Peter Alexander (aka Mythcons).
