I actually got started with making avatars through Vroid, it really helped me understand the process/workflow before I jumped into blender. Also thanks for the shoutout!!
before even having played vrchat that much I grabbed the fluffydog because it was free (and it quite grew on me) and went off making my own texture for it in blender paint (heavily relying on gimp too because I had experience). It was a very cool learning experience. I've now made a full vrchat world. I really have vrchat to thank for getting me into 3D work like this.
I FINALLY got into VRChat and it has been great fun so far, though I desperately need a good avatar. Might hop into Blender at some point to do it, but for now, this video will be a nice resource on how I could find something to work in the meantime. Thanks for the content, along with being an awesome creator I followed through 2024 :D
@@TahvoStudio Much appreciated! While I'm no Blender pro, I am getting more experienced. I'm at the stage where I'm coming up with my own solutions instead of having to search for knowledge every time, which feels awesome :D Best of luck for you learning Blender, too!
Been around for 4 years, I forgot how truly difficult it was to find specific avatars back then, unless you had a mod menu. Now they spoil you with searchers and shit
Nice and complete video. I learned how to make a custom avatar and world myself since 2018 and now I'm glad that all that pain paid back and now I can do pretty much everything I want on my avatars. I was thinking of making a video like it for the Italian audience too. (Yes there are a lot of Italian users on VRChat)
I've actually made a VR chat model not too long ago from the Novabeast base, I really want to make my own from scratch but I just don't know where I should start -w-
While I do have only 2 custom avatar that I paid, I have mad respect to people who know how to edited and make 3D models. my brain can't figure out how to use Blender.
It definitely takes some getting used to. After enough poking around models I eventually figured out all the navigation and tools needed to make stuff though.
In my case I wanted an Arcanine (my main Sona), so I just looked for avatars with Arcanine retextures. The vulper one is my current favourite! I did also retexture an Arko Canine myself, but it was a lot of work, and it's still rough around the edges, but I'm proud of myself for trying and learning substance painter! I also have plenty of public avi's I use
Thanks for this video since I'm getting a headset this Christmas and'll be using VRChat & Roblox! (It's already here, but I'm going to properly wait :3)
I really wish I had the patience to learn how to use Blender and the likes cuz I have SO MANY OCs that I’d like to play VRChat as. But I have adhd so that kind of time consuming stuff is hard for me to learn.
So I've been curious as I'm in the works rn trying to find someone for a commission to make a custom avi, I've been on vr chat for a bit and been using a free or a free base. Though would like to take it to custom, any chance you'd know any good or decent creators for it?
It depends a lot on what style you want. Voxid does really good lowpoly models. Ironicsoap made my base but I don’t think she’s open right now. I recommend poking around Twitter for avatar releases and seeing if the creators do customs or not.
super secret method 8: be friends with someone who's learning avatar making and be super supportive and encouraging to them and theyll probably ask if they can make you something!! (mostly a joke, but im saying this as someone who loves making avatars for my friends 😁)

Gonna be linking this vid every time i get questions about getting avatars
That was definitely one of the inspirations for this video. There’s tons of options.

Interesting! I loved visiting your ship world, it’s such an awesome way to show off all your work.

very in-depth, well structured vid, keep it up!
Much appreciated!
3:48 I was part of that Taidum spinning silliness, I was the Buizel Taidum which is a public model
Nice! Hope you had a fun time at the taidum meetup.
Semi-Related: out of all the Avatars That I have used my top three are. Eboshi, Kit-Vali, and Soap Dog.
Soap Dog Soap Dog
@@TahvoStudio Still need to edit one finally made a new OC.

Yo its tahvo ^^ thanks for the tips and a happy Christmas!
Really great and comprehensive video!
Glad it was helpful!
Helpful. Thanks. BTW I think I like your avatar more then any other TH-camr I have seen. Very nice.
THANK YOU
thx for explaining will use later on. also nice avatar
Glad I could help!

Cool info. I'll get started once I get into vrc. Thanks for the video.
Thanks and good luck.

you getting a 3?
@ A 3s!
@@Alecade8 im just getting a 3 just to see what all the hype is about if i like it ill actually play it
@@TojiBliqe The 3s' hand tracking works in the dark, so that's one difference from the 3
@@Alecade8 wait you mean irl? if so i gotta have a light on in my room
What I like about that otter looking avatars, is the bouncy nose.
good for nose boops
thanks brother, also love the avatar you got!
Thanks!
@@TahvoStudio holy crap you actually responded, i love your content, have a good one!
This is actually gonna be very useful! :3
Glad to help!
Ty for another vid!!!❤
A very nice overwiew
This video was really helpful thank you
Glad it could help.
You’re such a good boy! :3
Finally I can make a hedgewolf of my own but that's alot of work XD
Oh Unity and Blender... How I love and dislike thee... xD great video as always!
The struggle is real.
Im currently chilling on method 4 using a heavily edited wicked wolf turned into a horse
while also working on method 7 but very much struggling
Method 7 can be tough! I'm still struggling with it myself.
I have a vr avatar, but dont find a lot of time to run or a good group to talk in to build the rank to upload it.
Yeah, there’s a bit of a delay but just exploring can burn up that time. Also adding people as friends seems to help.
I really wish I had the patience to learn how to use Blender and the likes cuz I have SO MANY OCs that I’d like to play VRChat as.
But I have adhd so that kind of time consuming stuff is hard for me to learn.
Definitely recommend finding some bases that work for your characters
I don't know why i'm seeing this i don't even play vr chat but its a really good tutorial!
FURRY
@@TahvoStudio no never im not......
the taidum always cutest

@TahvoStudio gotcha, well I appreciate the help nonetheless!
Human Tahvo is not real, he cannot hurt you.

It’s just a dream
Do i have vr/vrchat? No.
Did i still watch this video? Yes!
Thanks for the video I want to get this.
Hope you find one you like!

That’s awesome you make avatars for friends.
@@TahvoStudio mostly just cause im bad at character design 😂 but i love making models and making the designs of others real!
uhhh, i'll stay with my chicken avatar which is free
Nothing wrong with that
The thing is that I didn't know any of the other methods other then making it yourself because I am currently making my own avatar.
Good luck!
@@TahvoStudio Oh thank you very much!
