I think it's the first time I saw someone made a typology without even modeling the character, make me want to try but my instinct tell me that I will obviously failled haha. Great video, I really enjoyed it!
For people that ask how he is doing it, for what I have tried it seems to be a combination of extruding vertices, merging them and then finally making a new face from the vertices. Shortcuts in order are: e,m and f
This has been super helpful and informative as I've been learning to make models in blender! Thank you for sharing this! Projecting the texture on the models while working on it is such a great idea!!
Just started using Blender a few days ago because I wanted to make low poly characters and possibly give vtubing a try. Your character design is really charming and inspiring. Doubt I'll get near this level anytime soon, but having a goalpost is a great start.
It's amazing how it's so low poly and also so perfectly detailed. The part when you build the hair is particularly impressive. Great work and thanks for sharing !
Look up "poly modeling face tutorial blender". The method is called poly modeling, can be used to make both the anime style face and the realistic style face. Keeps the poly count low, better edge flow, quick work flow
Your videos have been so helpful for a beginner like me who only does illustration and wants to get into 3D. I hope that you'll cover UVs and texturing in a video sometime (UV editing is much less fun for my brain that only wants to do creative things rather than technical)! Thank you for your time lapses and for your excellent work! :D
ah yes new material to study uwu *rubs hands together* okay actually tho I hadn't thought of texturing 'early' to better the overall shape but omg it's such a mindblown idea. but so simple, i now have to try it lol.
hi! i love your work, and thank you for all the tutorials youve been making! i was wondering if there was a reason you model with triangles? or do the number of vertices not matter when its not extensive animation like say on a feature film?
That's right! I model primarily for games and while the amount of vertices can still matter, most game engines will read your model in triangles even if you don't model with triangles
Recently discovered low poly cats and was fascinated so i looked up how to create them and found your channel and im even more inspired😭 This is so amazing!!
I enjoy how this def has the low poly aesthetic going on, but when you realize that it probs has like 500+ probs 1000+ dare I say polygons, you see how far video cgi has come Also awesome work, your an inspo all the way
this was very helpful :) i'm very used to low-poly modelling but not exactly making vtuber models, and most tutorials online are of higher poly vtuber models. thanks for mixing the two
I started to use Blender again because want to create low poly character like this, I'm not sure what question to ask, maybe just amazed how you draw the topology vertices by vertices and combine them, alot of work and but the end result is so amazing, tq for the videos
Hi! Big fan of your work :) Also I wanted to mention that your twitter post count is at 6,909 and your follower count is 669 and i found that hilarious
The simplest way to animate the face in low poly models is having in the texture the rest of expressions you are going to use, and change the UV map to the one you want in a single frame. The other way is modeling the rest of the face properly and then doing the usual face rig.
I’m a huge fan of your art style! I think it looks so cool! I was wondering. How did you learn your techniques? I have been trying to learn to 3d model! Do you have any tips or videos? (Like for example how to learn good Tapology, rigging, animation etc)
Is there a specific reason vtuber avatars use the empty eye sockets with floating irises rather than round eye geo? I imagine it has something to do with blend shapes not working with rotations?
What got me into it was having someone who I could ask everything on day 1. Like "what if a wanna select these in a row?" So after like 3 hours I could already walk on my own legs and with a few days, 3d started becoming intuitive. But it will come with studying it, thinking hard about it, looking up answers. It is fun of you dont waste time e go straight into trying fun stuff
So, i'm curious. If u use this system of keeping the limbs "disconected" from the body, like independent objects, would still posing be possible in the normal way? (keeping the whole body as a object, keeping the limbs connected to the geometry is what i mean). I'm learning blender, so, sorry if it's an absurd question or anything lol, my mind tells me that if u use this system, posing would be the same but at the same time i don't know. Anyway, thank u and ur work is amazing
My comment is crazy late compared to yours, but if you're still needing help, i believe they are adding singular verts and then adding a face onto them afterwards so it can be a custom shape. To do this, after adding your verts, select the ones you want to have a panel between them and hit the F key.
If you ctrl click while in edit mode you should be able to create a vert, or you can just merge a plane into a single vert and go from there. I just extrude from the single vert to start
Mind if I ask what the planes are, and how do I use them? I've seen lots of other blender creators use this method, but none have stated how it can be accessed!
I'm new to 3d. I've learned that using triangles is bad. This model's face has lots of triangle. Isn't that bad? Also it says in the title it's for Vtubing.
Maybe for high quality animations or using subsurface modifiers you'd want to avoid triangles, but game engines read your models in triangles even if you don't create any yourself. Vtubing is done through game engines
If the results are good, the techniques don't matter too much. This is just the way that works for me and blocking is only important for sculpting Also, I model for games, all quads will be turned to tris in the engine anyways. Using tris early on keeps my polycount low
hey! I was wondering how you'd go about making the refrence used to model? is it digitally drawn? what are some alternatives if im not great at art? Thank you!
I draw my own references digitally and create my own designs. I would say just keep practicing at art and you'll get better over time but if you want something sooner, then commissioning someone for a reference character is a good idea. If you want to use an existing character from another artist, always make sure the original artist is okay with you rendering it in 3D before using the references
@@Priichu3D Alright, i appreciate the advice, im more learning to model for Game creation and im not sure id commission art, but ill be sure to practice and try to get a basic shape down.
I think it's the first time I saw someone made a typology without even modeling the character, make me want to try but my instinct tell me that I will obviously failled haha.
Great video, I really enjoyed it!
Oh do! I've given it a try and while following along the tutorial is difficult due to the speed, I felt so comfortable doing so!
You should watch crashune’s tutorial on TH-cam. It breaks it down so easily. Although how they colour the model is a little different.
For people that ask how he is doing it, for what I have tried it seems to be a combination of extruding vertices, merging them and then finally making a new face from the vertices. Shortcuts in order are: e,m and f
There’s a missing step: how to outline those vertices using those dots at the start. Is a knife tool being used or something else?
This has been super helpful and informative as I've been learning to make models in blender! Thank you for sharing this! Projecting the texture on the models while working on it is such a great idea!!
More timelapses and tutorials would be absolutely invaluable. Please please record more timelapses
indeed!

i gotta try this now
It's really nice that you're good at drawing and 3D modeling, lol. I'm only okay at 3D modeling
That's a completely different way to make a face then how I do it. I usually do the cube method.
can you do a full length character modeling tutorial with voice over instructions??

very informative, thank you
subed , was browsing random cad , wanted to learn something , got it !
Tutorials pls !!
Would you mind doing tutorials? I would love to learn how to do things like this
Is there a specific reason vtuber avatars use the empty eye sockets with floating irises rather than round eye geo? I imagine it has something to do with blend shapes not working with rotations?
It's because stylized/anime eyes are usually not perfect spheres so having them rotate nicely in all directions with rigging can be really awkward
@@Priichu3D Gotcha, makes sense.
I wish I could get into 3D modeling but the tech is so unintuitive for me. I still think stuff like this is cool tho.

change viewport shading to flat and turn the texture button on
@@响响响响 Iam wondering if the shader has a name. Maybe I could buy it from somwhere.

How many hours/days did it took you to model this?
can you do a tutorial on how you did that hair???? it looks so nice but i can't really understand whats going on!!!

Nice man how long did this take to make?
3:04
How do I enter the node in this part? If anyone sees this comment, please let me know the answer.
Does anyone know what this particular style is called?
This model is done in my own art style
Hey next time can you add a live shortcut key viewer, thanks
sorry to bother but, what would i surch to find more info on the color thing you did?..
Why did you turn her coat's faces from rectangles to triangles? Does it help in any way?
With lower poly models triangles can help with deformations. Keeping it as a quad face can sometimes cause it to bend in a way you wouldn't want
@@Priichu3D Oohh didn't know that. Thank you very much
How do you draw the vert first? I can't figure that out
If you ctrl click while in edit mode you should be able to create a vert, or you can just merge a plane into a single vert and go from there. I just extrude from the single vert to start
I have to ask what Addon do you use for your blender?
Mind if I ask what the planes are, and how do I use them?
I've seen lots of other blender creators use this method, but none have stated how it can be accessed!
Sorry, which planes? The references?
@@Priichu3D How do I merge the vertices on the plane into those plates?
@@Jalsku You select the vertices and press F to fill the empty space
do you ever think about making in-depth tutorials about low poly model making?
It's something I've thought about for sure! I'm just a bit bad at explaining why I do things
@@Priichu3D i think you'd do a great job at it even if it seems a bit daunting to jump into! i wish you the best of luck if you do decide to do it
😲 - Woah...
Can you pleaseee give the sideways proportion reference??
Do you use this model in live 2d or vtuber studio? Also do you take rigging commisions
great this tutorial, thanks :)
Omg tutorial whennnn

I haven't seen anyone model in this method since college. How come you don't do blocking? I also noticed that you have both tris and quads

Dude how you do to put the texture without using seams? im losing my mind trying to do an uv map
How do you set up the vertices on their own to make the outline of the shapes, I'm still struggling to figure that one out 😅😅 also great vid!! ~
I usually just duplicate a vertex from somewhere else on the mesh or merge a quad into a single vert and extrude from there
how do you make that the texture is showing in real time like that?
