Step 3 Building/Shaping the Nose and Adding a Facial Scar If you wish to square off the look of your character now would be a good time to use the Flatten brush to square the jaw, top of the head and other parts of the character.Īdding Mesh to the Base Character at Subdivision Level 3 Using the Smooth tool, work the mass into more organic shape at low setting. Using Clay Buildup, I added mass to the brow, jaw, cheeks and chin area. Step 2 Import the OBJ into zBrush for Sculptingĭivide mesh to level 5 then return to level 3 to begin work. From 3DXchange export as an OBJ to the location of your choice. From iClone send the character into 3DXchange via the button on the right side menu. After creating a mesh that suits you needs you are ready to send it to iClone. Calves thighs, forearms, and upper arms were all slimmed to near comic proportions since a stylized look is our goal. In this case, I used a combination of the Male face and body sliders along with slimming down the waist and lower trunk all the way to the feet. Next, use a combination of sliders to create a base mesh that suits your needs in general.

Step 1 Prepping Base Character in Character Creator Transforming the Base Mesh into a Unique Character We finally get to do the fun stuff while Reallusion sweats the details and takes care of the tedious nature of rigging behind the scene completely invisible to the user. In fact, we don’t even see a menu that mentions rigging! We also export the modified low-density mesh to use as a replacement mesh in 3DXchangewhich works out all the rigging details for us. We then generate a normal map based on the high-density mesh sculpt and use it to project that sculpts onto the low-density mesh of the original model.

Since the pipeline takes care of all the tedious work like rigging we can concentrate on the creative part of the project by using third party modeling applications like zBrush, Mudbox, and Sculptris to modify the mesh at a higher division level. Then it’s through the iClone pipeline (Character Creator – iClone 6 – 3DXchange 6) to zBrush for sculpting and enhancement of the base mesh we prepped in CC. In this tutorial, we will prepare a base mesh in Reallusion’s Character Creator (CC) using morph sliders to control the output.
