purple porcelain abomination is what I got at the moment after following some fag ow2 esque tutorial
anything that involves closing substance painter I cannot do

OP here, I should clarify. I can't close substance painter because my trial ran out, I am open to texturing in other software that I can get for free however
Is it possible to do this in a pbr workflow at all?

unironically /ic/ would know better how to do these handpainted textures because it is just that 2d concept art skillset transferred over.

the way they made those pictures was by hand painting over 3d renders not by incorporating hand painted textures into 3d.
But to make hand painted textures just use paint brush patterns and paint the texture. Paint it directly onto the mesh with textured brushes.

OP, with your level of experience, you are so stupefyingly distant from your goal of pic related that you're better off dropping this line of inquiry altogether and finding a better use for your time.
I don't mean that in a condescending way. The person who drew that pic is obviously a professional. There's people who can take a 2D asset and turn it into 3D, though that also takes a level of professionalism to do well. Then finally, there's the guys that are so good, they can take a 2D drawing, turn it 3D, and their knowledge of 2D and 3D is so thorough, they can make the 3D model still look like a 2D painting.
That's how many levels of professional abstraction we're talking here. You know so little, you don't even know how much you don't know. You gotta come back down to earth. You want to get more stuff like that pic and pretend you made it, sorta? Unironically, go download one of those AI models and feed that guy's pic into it and proompt into it a bit, that oughta scratch the itch you have right now. Otherwise, I'm sorry, you can close SP if you haven't already, because whatever you're thinking of doing, ain't happening anytime soon.

why the fuck do you think im asking?
beginning of june I didn't even know what the fuck blender was. not the foggiest of notion how people on youtube did the funny anime girl doing an uncharacteristic dance to uncharacteristic music. I am asking how people do this so I can put down a plan on how I learn this shit and then execute it. I may not execute it very well, but thats ok I will try until I get it right. I refuse to be discouraged, and stop because something is too hard. shit needs to be learnt and then done. I got a game to make and this out of all things isnt stopping me

I guess it was what I originally anticipated then, manual colour picking and painting, and striking that balance between tuning the colours in substance and in unity post. thanks. ill post work when I eventually figure it out

OP here, did a quick polymodel of the reference that I will try to paint, since my current character is too far a departure from the look I want. will update all of you when I figure it out.

projected the original painting onto the 3d head. As a proof of concept it doesnt look too bad (the eyelashes and hair and random sharp edges and "ears" do stick out) I will learn to handpaint it properly soon once this flu leaves me and I can mess with sleeping for the sake of 3d again

Is this closer to what you want anon?
But aside from shaders, I think you still have a fundamental problem to tackle here.
On your model, the hair is represented by a dozen large rounded shapes/bundles.
However, the hair in the examples is modeled with hundreds of bundles and individual hairs.
You will have to spend, at absolute minimum, the same amount of time that the original artists spent drawing this hair to achieve a similar level of quality and detail.
You're aiming very high by choosing reference material like this.
I think it's good to have high goals, but I want to warn you that it's going to be a long grind.

make yourself some very accurate image planes. With all of the details lining up perfectly.

NTA but I think he asked you to do a front, back and side view so that you don't have to improvise while doing the 3d model.

>>928208 is right
make very precise drawings from the front and side, at least. It will improve your model and make it much easier to do. Image planes dont NEED to be as detailed as your concept sketch. Mine tend to be very basic. Just notates key features so you can make the 3D shape that projects as the 2D shape you want people to see.

I know the hair is different and the eyes are a different proportion but this is closer to the original character design. Might change up both later however, haven't made a satisfactory front facing sketch yet.

get it exactly how you want. This is the time for your meticulous design autism. When you're modelling you want to be a mindless machine preproducing a perfectly made image plane into a 3D model.

ive already decided on handpainting her face and skin, then doing the clothes in substance
unironically I think its gonna be more effort to draw more sketches of her face than just model it in 3d

What the duck are you trying to do with that hair? please post someone with hair like that in real life, maybe that'll help you or learn hair anatomy.

Just give up on this project and make a simple props for now. You need to work on your fundamentals before you can even start to tackle characters.

I would take on your challenge but this is the 6th crack of substance painter i've tried and none of them work. I've tried vfxmed, getintopc, m0nkrus, 1337x.to, and cgpeers(both the mega in the piracy thread and the original torrent.), with versions ranging from 6 all the way to 8. I cant get any of them to run. I got one crack of marmoset toolbag and it works though, so theres that.

ok so using photoshop is about as good as using krita, which I am currently doing.
might be barely viable for ok looking anime characters, but not for pro level gun texturing

Make sure your UV mapping is all good.
That's where we're getting our normal and tangent info out of.
Also the frontal hair bulges remind me of Giorno Giovanna

I don't plan on animating it, when my game somehow lasts until the point I need the mouth rigged I will redo the whole mesh then.
>>933190
its mirrored, once I finalize the whole body in its entirety I will make the UVs extra proper, different mat for the face for higher res and all that
