@@UKARI-V4 Hello there, thank you for your interest in my videos. I’m afraid I don’t quite understand your issue. I know it can be difficult to communicate through RUclips comments as you cannot post images to further describe your issue. If you contact me through my Artstation page, I can try to assist you directly in more detail. If you’re wondering how the eyelashes move with the eye expressions, you will need to use the Facial Profile editor to make those adjustments. If you are looking to hide the eyelashes altogether, you will need to assign an opacity map to the eyelashes altogether material or dial down the opacity of that material. I apologize if this does not address your issue.

@@ArcticArmBoy Hello there, yes, the proportional scaling adjustments are a great way to get your character into your desired proportions before working on the mesh. It’s kind of the reverse of the usual workflow, but it works. Instead of adjusting the bones to fit the shape, you are moving the shape along with the bones. It doesn’t impact the final result negatively.

Hi there, sorry for the late reply. You don't necessarily have to keep the eyes spherical, but you'd have to compensate for their shape when adjusting the expressions. For most cases you'd want to keep the eyes spherical. I will have to look through the video again (my memory is bad), but in general I try to keep the eyes in the correct place. You can adjust anything later, and if you you need to, you can also generate replacement eyes. Just make sure the bones are aligned to the eye sockets. You can further adjust the placement of the eyes in the proportion editor (or adjust the mesh itself, then align bones to the mesh).

@@MythconsLab Thank you. I had not tried the proportion editor and that solved some of my problems. Some characters have squished eyes and that requires some type of lattice deformer. So far I think you have to keep it spherical. Do you know what the rules are for selling Hades or some personal Ip made this way on other platforms like attestation, cgtrader. CC Marketplace seems obvious.

@@aliraza-ux1ww Greetings, I’m not an animator, so my guidance is limited in this area. I would highly recommend iClone (and of course Character Creator for customizing your avatars). The props and characters you choose depend on your project needs. Go to the Content Store and have a look around at what piques your interest. That said, the animations found in the ActorCore store are always amazing and easy to customize. Make sure you take a look at what’s on sale to take advantage of combo packs when you can. They’ll often bundle a ton of interesting content that would otherwise be a little pricey if bought normally. One of the benefits of Reallusion’s 3D suite is that it interfaces extremely well with Blender, so you have the option of animating in either software. Check out the CC / IC Blender Pipeline add-on, it’s free and has lots of options and features for importing / exporting and animating iClone and Character Creator content. I hope this helps a little.

@@MythconsLab Thank you so much for the guidance 😊

It's possible to do that, but I don't really know how to optimize the mesh for CC4 standards straight out of Marvelous Designer. The automatic quads are not clean, and I never got use to their retopo tools.

Hmm sorry to hear you're having trouble with InstaMAT. I use an RTX 3090 Ti and have had no problems with it, but I am not really an expert on the specs required. If you need assistance I can do my best to research it and report back.

@@MythconsLab Well, I hope that it's a matter of drivers update only, because it's a shame not to be able to fully utilize my card. Thanks anyway!

Hey there. I used a material I had already set up for the hair after I imported it into CC4. I could have exported the hair strands provided by Hair Add-on, which were more realistic, but that was not the style I was looking for. Let me know if you have any other questions. If you follow the ink to the BlenderArtist page, you can get a more detailed explanation of how I use hair and Curve-based UVs.

Hey there, good luck on your studies. My work flow is pretty basic, but it depends on what I'm creating. I mostly work in Blender when I'm creating assets, and either Zbrush or Blender if I'm modifying a Character Creator mesh. For texturing, I usually use 3D-Coat, but Blender and InstaMAT also have a place in my workflow. As for inspirations, that's a difficult question. I'm kind of all over the place with where I get my inspirations from. For the Hades project, I just used the Disney Character design. As long as its unique and stylized, I'm inspired.

Hi there, thanks and sorry about not including that. The skin is deceptively simple. If you were to see the texture, it's mostly a flat color with some minor color detail. I'm recording another character, which is a different style, but it may reveal more of my workflow. Thanks!

I will tell you why I was so excited to see that Proportion Edit exists in Blender: Proportional Editing! (In this case, child bones change with the parent.) I don't think that is possible in CC4...is it? Plus, I find Blender's UI easier and faster to work with, but that's subjective.

@@binyaminbass Thanks for the great insight!

@@ThreeDCreateTutorials Whoa! I just discovered that using Edit Proportions ruins the UDIM tiles!

Hi there, yes Character Creator has a Proportion Editor, but as mentioned, but Blender's has certain advantages as it relates to child bones. Also, you can refine results without leaving the software using the Sculpt brushes. Having the Sculpting Tools and Proportion Editor in one package is a great advantage for doing advanced custom characters.

Thanks! Sorry about the missing footage, the springs were a last minute addition that I didn't record. I'll see if I can do a video about them soon.

@@MythconsLab yea... I was just about to say this. How about the hair textures, whatever happened to them?

Wow thank you! I appreciate the kind words Alex :) All the best

Yeah, Dynamesh would destroy the mesh and the data needed for this process. If you were looking to take a Dynamesh sculpt into Character Creator, I'd recommend checking out Headshot 2 (where you can transfer details to a CC4 mesh), the Zwrap add-on for Zbrush (similar concept) or AccuRig (where you can import a non-standard character and rig auto-rig it). Good luck!

It could definitely be done in Blender, especially with some of the recent add-ons. I will probably do another video eventually. Thanks!

Hi there, there is no way to remove the eyelashes. Generally you need to use the Facial Profile Editor to correct the eyelashes during the eyes closed expression. Alternatively you can find the material for the eyelashes on your character and dial down the opacity so that they are invisible. I hope that helps!

@@MythconsLab thanks, I'll try.

Yes, Blender is a great alternative to Zbrush, especially with the free Blender CC / IC Pipeline addon. I am planning to make a Blender video soon. Stay tuned!

Hi there, you mean switching to wireframe / polygroup overlay? That should be Shift + F. This is useful for seeing how the mesh is being deformed and where the details are being placed, especially muscles.

Thanks for the kind words. The Blender process is coming soon!
