Thank you!
Thank you so much that help so much but my discord is very bed and I don't know my code s I cannot join my friend everyone who I have in discord but is okay
And I'm from 🇲🇺I'm bed to talk English ok
Me thank you you
me Thak you more
yes yes
Even though I know how to draw, this was actually super helpful!! I have a tenancy to get overwhelmed with aesthetic choices because so many different vibes are super appealing to me. But doing this kind of thing will help me narrow the choices down and stay focused :D So thanks!
I literally have the same issue!! This is how I got over it as well XD there's just too many amazing artists
This would actually be a good thing to use my thousands of anime screenshots for. xD
same xd
Same..
Yes I know how to draw BUT can't draw humans so this is helpful
remember; don’t just rip off or trace artist’s OCs from Pinterest.
Whyyy 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@DONUTS4LIFE_YT wtf do you mean why. it should be obvious if you have ANY level of thought.
Real
As someone with fairly limited drawing skills, this was very helpful for future projects. Thank you very much for your help.
You are so welcome Derkork! I am super glad I could help!
Can you not say as someone
@@akiroyanchan2951 I could have done that, but I wanted to provide context for my gratitude in a fairly concise manner.
32 year old people: Ugh i just cant draw?!
9 year old kid: Drawing a very detailed anime character
Because the 32 year old didn’t practice at all when they could’ve, and the 9 year old is starting early and most likely has started practicing younger
Haha yes thats true 💀
@@Senpai-nb4io yeah and advances things make thing easier
@@Senpai-nb4io exactly!
@🧁_Vannak shin er_🥞 i learnt how to draw when i was 4-6 ish
aaaa I've been looking into drawing my own vtuber model and becoming a streamer myself, and it's honestly super intimidating, I'm really grateful that there are channels like yours who give detailed tutorials like this one, it makes me have a little more confidence in myself!
Im so happy to hear that Pybbun! I look forward to seeing your OC!!
Ooo cant wait to see it im. Try to do it as well
I’m not a vtuber, but I honestly found this really helpful for making character sheets. I was actually having trouble coming up with reference sheets, and I found this really helpful!
I am so glad this was helpful to you!!! I think its great to have a nice visual on what kind of elements you want for your character uwu
What are some of your OC ideas? I'd love to hear them and maybe draw some based off the reference sheets you made!!!
Once you finish this video, check out this one!

At first I imagine him/her in my head, write it down before I fall asleep.
And on next daybInrun through tags to find the picture that might fit the character I wish to create :)
@@deltazero3796 Heck yeah that's a great idea!!! I always have my phone on me to get out my notes just in case I think of something
When I think about my oc, my imagination runs wild to the point that I have to much ideas to choose from hehe.
@@Shadow-pf2io You could always categorize them by their lore/theme and then make different OCs!!!
So.... any ideas here, huh? Guess i'll go for it then.... (skip to end if you don't care)
My character is Imago Dralin Minus, a soul gifted with greatness, but held back by corruption. his physical appearance is usually that of a regular humans, just with the purple eyes with a black base. His build is less masculine, even feminine in most ways, which is only disguised by rather baggy clothes. He stands tall at 5"11 feet, or 1.80 meters, with grey-ish skin ("looks dead"), and he looks as unfit as he really is. His hairstyle is rather common, chocolate brown mid length hair with only a slight gap in his bangs above his right eye. His facial expressions are usually on the serious, but tired side, with less smiling and more focus. He wears casual clothes consisting of an open baggy black jacket, purple shirt, dark blue jeans and black sneakers. In addition, he wears purple sweatbands on both arms and always has a facemask prepared for "dirty-air"-situations.
All that however is only part of his "sealed" appearance. To explain that, you'd need to know the story, and since his sealed form is as bland as it looks, i can get into it right away:
By fate, he was meant to be the hope of humanity, destined to develop his powers to fight the greatest eveil there is (the usual). However, before he was even born, the corruption found him and manipulated his body, mind and his life to severely limit his potential to that of a below average human. His emotions are to be kept within to ensure that nothing goes wrong, whilst he could never enjoy his life for he lacked the freedom, ability, understanding and even the mercy of coincidence to do anything he wanted. That has left his mind unstable, and if his self control finally fails, he will enter a new "unleashed" state, which changes his demeanor, appearance and the intensity of his powers to a beastlike persona:
As this unleashed self, his hair lengthens midway to his torso, getting partially "spiky" from the wild energy and partially shining red, and in the gap of his bangs forms a single red glowing horn. His eyes turn a glowing red, and black stripes flow down from his eyes parallel down his cheeks. His once tired look is now menacing, crazy, that of bloodlust, aggression and no more worries. His ears get pointy as well and his teeth are like fangs.
Where his casual outfit once was is now a strange kind of crystallin tighter dark/black armor with lines of red light emanating from any edges and gaps. It covers his upper torso and his entire lower body, leaving the midriff partially exposed with a strange blood-red fabric covering that. It is also on his forearms like bracelets, and the red energy is focused on his chest and the backsides of those bracelets. Red see-through shapes manifest around his body, further adding to the mysterious and threatening aura. Energy also emanates from his being like in Dragon Ball. His movements are much faster and chaotic as well.
(a "harmonic" form is planned in the future, which would partially resemble my current avatar's appearance plus some extra details and changes. It would be achieved by becoming the destined "Soul Avenger", by encountering the lost souls in the void and harmonizing his two personas into one dynamic being.)
I hope this is fine, just tell me if it isn't. I don't really know what was to be expected from your comment.
(where do i put the reference sheets? i know not here, so where else then? Just warning though: i am loaded with ideas!)
I can draw but what's hard for me is to find a reference and motivation
With this video Mitsuyuu, you won't have to draw! Using Pinterest to find images is so helpful! I have another video I am currently working on to show people how to draw for their reference image using shapes ^_^
@@MariYumeCh I'm pretty picky so I draw rarely and the reason why is that it takes me at least 2 hours on Pinterest looking for a good outfit, hair and pose. I'm pretty good at drawing, it's the motivation and whole character features I'm having a hard time on
@@mtsyuu_ at what point do I stop telling people I’m an artist and begin telling them what I really am: a Pinterest addict
@@Shoob-k5u FR I LITERALLY JUST ACCIDENTALLY STAY IN PINTEREST INSTEAD OF DRAWING
@@mtsyuu_ It takes me a long time to find references too, but after sorting through my pins, it's become a lot faster for me to find what I am looking for. It's something you get better at the more you do it. I've been drawing for less than a year now and I have improved a lot by practicing everyday
Honestly seeing people create such amazing characters and making VTubers makes me wanna VTube and become that character I've always wanted to be.
Follow your dreams! ^^
I've been thinking about streaming my games and seeing as I don't want to show my face, room and I wanted to start drawing again, I think I would like to try designing and maybe rigging my own character for vtubing. So far, I'm thinking green and forest-y colours for her. I would like to add things to her that characters I play as have: A purple flower in a pocket for Andrew from idv, eyes similar to Ann's from idv, a hair style similar to Xiangling's from genshin impact, except green with a strand of cream-yellow, somewhat pointy/elf-like ears that giggle a little every so often, maybe a scar similar to Gundham from danganronpa and maybe the inside of her mouth will be black with a fang connected to the skin. If it turns out too messy with the character refs, I might settle for the purple flower and the rest forest-elf themed
Edit: I've had another idea for a mint chocolate chip anime girl with her mouth mint green and a droop of 'mint ice cream' is escaping her mouth
I never thought of using a google docs that way tysm!
This really helps me in telling my clients how to describe their models without drawing skills. Thank you, Mari!
This is such a good idea!
Even if you can draw, actually creating a moodboard or ref sheet here before going into your character design would be so helpful. Im currently going through designing/redesigning my OC to start creating my model, and im not being very consistant, this would be super helpful to keep me on track!!
Funnily enough I literally installed Pinterest earlier today. I'm using it for anatomy practice so I can draw my models. Thanks for reaffirming my decision. I'm a lazy learner and easily distracted so I needed this. Btw love your vids :D
Sounds great! I use the app all the time for photo references. Im glad my videos help!
Technically I didnt need to watch this but I was curious LOL. I love your character so much. and you're so funny, subbed right away 😭💖
Thanks for subbing! I am glad I can be entertaining :3
You're the reason why I wanna keep trying my best to become a Vtuber
Same here, I wish you luck, you've got this! 🖤
This is actually very helpful for me since I don't do 2D characters because my drawing skills SUCK I can use a description type character sheet and make a 3D model biased off of it
First of all, this is insanely helpful! I can draw a bit, but sometimes references are a pain to detail, so especially the templates help a lot in this situations
Second of all, honestly i can't see myself using anything other than a victorian era banshee as an OC. They're regular spirits until provoked, which i kinda like as a base
I’m honestly admiring ur eyes
I love how it says baby cats on one of the Pinterest categories
Well, I am studying at an art school because I want to specialize in the area of conceptual art and animation, but I would still like to do commissions for people who want to be VTubers, so this is too useful for me to practice and improve, thanks!
I don't plan to become a Vtuber, but I play a lot of TTRPGs and sometimes it can be a real pain (if not impossible) to find that perfect reference. Having this kind of set up to piece meal it together for yourself is amazing (and then if you're feeling comfy and confident you'll stick with the character, can give it to an artist as a commission). Thanks for the lovely idea~
Ty yume chan it was very helpful and very easy to make a vtuber character
I don't want to make a vtuber but this method could actually be useful when designing a character!
Once again, amazing video! I can obviously draw and did my OC (dream VTuber? lol) and owned a few I designed myself, but this is helpful on capturing the mood or an idea!
- Reppanyo
me after watching this video: motivation up
Me 3 seconds later: motivation down.
I totally relate. Its a struggle!
I am so excited to start creating my vtuber! I’m very thankful that I have a bit of both skills so I can draw my model and also create the ✨lore✨ required! Thank you so much for the informative videos!!
This is so useful! I know how to draw but starting to draw is the difficult part, I somehow wanna progress but not draw at the moment. Thank you! I love your editing skills and visuals.
This video is coming in clutch! I always had some very great ideas for my VTubing character(s) (yes, i have many different ideas), but i am a rather bad artist, and if i were to try and add details like it was mentioned in this video to my concept arts, i'd end up with a big mess that may not even look as good as i imagined it. (Gs, that was a long sentence!) I always loved making character sheets though, so your recommendation of Pinterest will be really helpful!
I just have one question: Like i said, i have many different ideas. One of which includes that my character has various different forms (sealed, unleashed, harmonic), which look very different from each other. Would i have to commission these forms separately or what? I don't know the boundaries/limitations regarding those characters and their illustrations etc.
It depends if you are keeping the same body structure. If you are changing the muscle size, bust size, eye shape, head shape, etc. Then it's going to be better to make them different models, but if if's just the clothing, hair, eye color etc changing then you can use the same model!
@@MariYumeCh Thank you so much! The changes aren't as significant as the examples mentioned, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem (unless for some reason i add major changes which hopefully not). I'll be working on it right away!
This is actually useful for my game character sheet which I haven't decided the design until now.
I actually use this method for commissions and character art. Quite a few of my clients find it strange that I ask for so many details, but it really does help me better understand what they want me to draw. I think the thing that weirds them out the most when I do this is that I ask about the personality of the character(s) they want me to draw. This actually helps me a great deal in figuring out how they present themselves and how to really bring them to life. When I get the answers to these questions, the final result always succeeds in blowing my clients away. I may not be the most skilled artist in the world, but I do know how to give life to my drawings and make them feel real and fill them with emotion. It's a talent I've had ever since I was little. It still boggles my mom's mind how I'm able to do that.
How much does commissioning usually cost?
@@reaperr__scythe__5763 Well, I guess it depends on the artist and the quality of their art. For me, my cheapest price is $6 for a simple line art headshot without any base coloring. My prices go up from there for colored art to greater details.
@@Midnight3Wonder thanks :) I am sure commissioning a vtuber model maker is a bit more expensive but this helps so thanks :D
@@reaperr__scythe__5763 You're welcome
i agree!
Thank You Very Much, The Idea Of Browsing Pinterest For Drawing You're Vtube Model was Very Helpful.
I never thought doing things this way... This was helpful
I'd like to think I'm a decent artist, but I was curious what you'd suggest and everything here is really good advice! Good one!
As a person who can draw but to a certain extent this is helpful to me who is debating on being a vtuber.
You just solved my problem, now I can draw better characters and designs
I'm glad to hear that! This is mostly to just help with getting a nice image reference so you can have a better idea describing your vTuber and designing it. This helps me when trying to do people's art commissions a lot!
i can draw but this is still good advice to anyone who does having that as reference is so helpful i use google images instead of pinterest but it still gives so many good ideas and helps me not to repeat anything to many times
I'm loving your videos. Looking to create my own vtuber model. you and a few others have been really helping me understand how this works. As for a model, I've been thinking of a cozy, kinda lazy kitsune boy. He has a red and white color scheme, but more of a drab red rather than super bright. He's a bit chonky and he has no tails yet because well, he hasn't achieved anything. Even though he's kinda lazy he is eager to prove himself because of this. lol I know that went a little long, but I have been thinking about this for a while now and really like the concept.
I already had the pinterest board and was looking for how to narrow down choices then came across your video! Super helpful, thanks so much!
You have been so helpful to helping me get started with all this Vtuber stuff and have an adorable character yourself, thank you so much!
Ngl one of the best assets i have found is the Maplestory char sim it really helps if you cant draw, but also want to give a rough idea long with descriptions.
just curious is a dude so good at doing life hacks that he becomes a god counts as a character lore.
When i realised what this consisted of i Kinda cheated, but I literally used reality to start my sheet it may be basic but thats my design. 😊 even made PNG images for a more realistic look. Then I just started making lore. 😅 imma have to commission you hehe (eventually)
Oooo- this'll be helpful for if I ever do this in the future, thanks! I can draw, I just can't draw eyes that well, and I can barely draw from the shoulder down-
I totally feel that, just make sure you are only using this as a reference and not full on copying from other models/artists :)
I honestly hate whiney kids who are like 'I cant draw 🥺😭 but I want my character art for free 👉👈 I just dont have any money 🤪'
like either pay your artists or learn to draw
For those who reading through the comments and wondering if this is a good idea - It is, as an artist who also take commissions and such, doing this and even drawing out stick poses [ for still designs ] to give your artist an idea on what you are aiming for, is gold. We are thankful ~
I am thinking two ideas for my model at the moment :
My logo design which is a Cat skull and then having the furry like body. The inner ear fluff being the roses in my logo - a neat idea would be having pedals fall when I move or something like that. They have glowing eyes and more or less I think it would be super cute since I dont see many doing skull faces.
My other idea is using my Jakk Arania OC who is a Spider, Fox hybrid - She has four purple eyes with a hint of light blue in them, skulls for her pupils - white skin with a purple hue for shading, white hair, tall fully hears, the inner ear fluff being a skull face as well. Her body has tattoo stitches across some areas like her face for a wide smile, her neck, arms, etc to name a few. More or less a rag doll feel. Her attitude is a " F Off" eyelid pull, tongue out with a middle finger in the air.
I have a link to some of her artwork examples : imgur.com/a/qBLGjQn
Thanks for reading ! And thank you for making the video. ~
This helped a lot! Thank you for the help!
4:26 the eyeliner part the character's named was Prinz Heinrich from azur lane- AAAAAA also thanks for the info..super helpful!
Thank you sooo much for helping me on making my own oc and omg a discord yes definitely yes and mood board YASSSS thanks again!!!
Thank you for nice info, I have no drawing skill too.. ✨✨✨
“And if you don’t know how to do that are you even old enough to be watching this video?”
Me: no I’m just dumb-
Ahhh, this was super helpful!! I know I'm late but tysm for making this! I really needed it^^
Now all I have now is to get working!! X3
This helped so much thank you!
Thank you so much for posting for us!
Just a question.. after I did this I realized I still don't have money 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 what do i do now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You could use this as a ref to make a 3d vTuber for free! I made a video on it here ruclips.net/video/_A1qNYI1dR4/видео.html&lc=Ugy-ljt8qEb9CHJxl4x4AaABAg
@@MariYumeCh yep, i'm actully working on one :D
Hello mari!! I have 2 questions and i hope u can answer them, do u know how to make a loading screen for vtuber live streams? And how do u make ur thumbnail?? Thats all! ^^
Hello Zulinazulkifly, I don't really know anything about graphic design, it's not something I studied in. Most of my graphics are done in canva and I use free vTuber assets and my model to make them ^^
Thank you, this is very helpful.
Glad it was helpful! I look forward to seeing your OC design Katsujiwa!!!
you have fun teacher energy/pos
I dissembled picrew picture and turn it into vtuber model, it’s tough work but it works
This is actually very helpful!
I'm an artist and i have a lot of oc ideas that i still haven't sketched and a lot of them have no names and personalities, I'm rlly glad i find this it makes my work with my oc more organized
Honestly this is how I prefer ppl to commission me for character sheets cuz it is really nice to have a visual on what it is they are talking about
The idea I have for mine right now is mistly based on my user"Queen of Nerds" but with a punky, slight witchy, nerdy look, with my tattoo sleeve thats an ADHD vibe with references all over lol
This video helped alot, as I can draw, but everything is drawn sperately, just cant do it all together its so weird 🤣😅
Wow super cool and helpful!
I love to draw so this gave me a great tip thank god you made this vid!
Although people these days are sensitive they'll bash and clout you just cuz you didn't credit, i mean they can literally just put a comment of the real artist there and not trashtalk and this is also why i cant draw any characters im thinking of cuz even the pose is original but they'll say credit the reference like bro what? Not every pose has one owner
My vtuber model is going to have red and green hair and be chilly pepper themed
I have an idea of what i want in my character...i wanna become a Vtuber but i still lack confidence on making the Oc in the computer 🤕...help?
Not a vTuber (writer/artist) and I can draw but this is can be helpful for character design! I’m using your method for designing character. I think it’ll be useful for anyone, whether they can draw or not. Thank you!
I think its super useful to have some kind of document to collect your thoughts on. Having a visual helps me a ton with character design :)
@@MariYumeCh Yasss totally! Honestly, this is the best way to make character design notes (without drawing of course 😁)!
Im Just a 11 Year old 🥺🥺🥺 I Wanna have a Vtuber too! But My mom dont wanna .... 😢
Wow Thank you for this video!!
This is so helpful!
I don't think this is just for Vtuber's this also may actually be useful for people who want to have OC Idea's, THANK U SO MUCH!! I LUV UUUUU!!
i’m an artist but this video was still so helpful for coming up with character designs!!
hello, ive done my character sheet but i cant find any artists that do some art reference commissions..mind if you help me out? 😅
Omg ty this really helped!!
what backwards kindergarten teaches art theory? mine just taught me not to eat mud or get marbles up my nose
Its a bit late but better late than ever?.. All i have for a vtuber/oc thingy is a daywalker vampire (think like blade from the blade series and similar stuff) who is a florist. Im still thinking about the lore and what her name shall be but i think this is a good start atleast
This is actually super helpful! And your explanation is very clear amd I could understand very quickly! I actually just stumbled on this video accidentally but I still watched it through the end!
I plan to be a vtuber but now anytime soon.. But this help me on making my own oc
I dont understand watdahek is a b cup-
I've been seeing this on internet alot of times but I still dont get it-
Does it help to know that I am also a female-
Thank you for this! ;D
THANKS THIS HELPS SO MUCH!!
Help i wanna make a vtuber but i dont know my shapes and letters and numbers and i dont have money-
Any charater commision artists who approve of this video? 🧐🤔
The subscribe button is so beautifull today *clicks the subscribe button cutely*
Mari your
vtuber how to playlist
has a video at the end that does not match the topic,
It is the Indie Games one
OMG THANK YOU!!!! must have gotten put there by mistake
If I were ever to be a vtuber I would use my gacha oc it would save time for me and for the commissioner
I wonder if gacha is still popular, its deff something you can try!
Who are you, i didnt know you at all, and i regret It, beacuse this video was so helpful LOL, just starting and this was exactly what i needed lmao tysm
I'd like to add, as an artist, even a crappy crayon drawing can be super extremely helpful as a reference. It can be scratchy, sloppy, lopsided, and poorly done, but it gives a super solid base for the artist to apply the descriptions to later
When and if I get a vtuber it would always look like its fall asleep bc I;m only productive at night lol
Thank you for helping me.😊😊🙌💞💕
What if we don’t have computers?
Wow nice
Thanks for the video
What is the second app(I’m from hk,I’m your new fan)
I use iPhone
I have a gacha character for reference it would help more right?
How did you make your anime character talk?
Probably thinking about becoming a VTuber in the future- I can draw but my skills are limited, so I really appreciate this video!
good luck :D
*I DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THAT STUFF :C*
*AND I DONT HAVE PINTREST :C*
*I DONT HAVE A FACEBOOK ACC :C*
*wait I hab a google acc C:*
see there u go. I prefer pinterest since google has doo doo results and most of it links back to pinterest anyways lol
I have some questions
where did you find the right artist to make our character?
usually how much money do we have to pay to the artist?
Is there a way to hire artists cheaply? because I'm poor hehe :D
and usually we arrange the body parts ourselves or the artist we hired will do it or even we have to hire someone to do it?
thankyou sm
1. you can just search "vtuber commission" and you'll find plenty!
2. seems like anywhere from $200 to upwards of $2,000. it really just depends on the artist, how much detail you want, etc
3. depends on your idea of "cheap." but these are going to be somewhat pricey, because these things take time and effort.
4. assuming by "arrange the body parts" you mean the rigging (making it move), it seems that most artists will do the rigging for you
please help me i dont know how to draw in school but in home i dont know how to too and i dont know what to draw please help me
I wish I was good enough of an artist to do drawing tutorials, but I am not that talented :c
@@MariYumeCh but i think your better than me tbh!!
This video is super helpful!
I felt to special to see precure on your feed XD. Manatsu looking very pretty!
as a person who gave up on drawing when i was good at body anatomy (head is pain unless i do it on paper) this actually makes me wanna get back into it (gEt iNtO iT yUh)
This was helpful bc I’m terrible at drawing. Also do you make models for people bc i would definitely hire u to make a model for me.
