🧵 Cartoon eyes
Anonymous at Mon, 5 Sep 2022 17:17:41 UTC No. 916741
How is this done (in Blender if poss)? I like the way Sony Pictures does it. I can hardly find any tutorials on eyes in general. They usually have a separate sphere mesh. But not only does that method seem wasteful since you won't see faces behind the eye-socket, but the cartoony shapes are too oblong.

>wasteful
you've posted a picture with 10s of thousands of feathers, you think anyone gives a fuck about the back of a sphere?

They probably used something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ID

You're right, it doesn't really matter. My project isn't as detailed as that pic (it's for a game) but a few extra polys still likely wouldn't cause an issue. The main concern is that those eyes are not spherical and will not fit inside the skull

>rigging the eye to move the UV
Interesting technique. This could be what I'm looking for

I'm saying you couldn't use perfect spheres to achieve the look of those characters. Their eyes are designed to be comically big. They are not like human eyes. Conventional methods wouldn't work.

you know you can squish and stretch a sphere to fit any eye shape?
I think you new to 3d, thats fine but please finish your training before trying to go shoot for the stars.
Here is an endgame animation rig so you have an idea how characters work:

I know you can deform a sphere, smartass. The reason tons of people recommend the sphere technique is so you can simply move pupils by rotation. If the eye was an oval, then you couldn't just rotate it anymore. I'd need to rely on a different method like rigging the UVs to move the pupils around like in >>916774

dude you CAN by using constraints.

oh sorry mate, your right.
I'm also a fellow gamedev so I wanted to help but I legit got mad lmao, I should have thicker skin by now my bad.
God luck on the game!

Sorry I was rude. This is a really good video. He also explains why the UV texture method isn't the best. Using constraints the same way you'd animate a rubber ball is easy to understand. Although it's a Maya vid, it's definitely doable in Blender.

well thats good to hear anon!
remember if you asking a question and someone give you an honest answear don't say it doesn't work if you aren't sure, listen and ask more questions if you aren't getting it, otherwise people will asume you are ultra green-noob and will get mad at you.

You can do it all procedurally on a bent plane even.
