Another blog post of a guy hoping to make it.
for reference i never complete any projects cause I'm lazy and I lack discipline, also because I have a day job.
Let's see if I can finish this time, goal is to finish a base mesh with game res and textures, as well as eyes and hair cards.
Also, please feel free to destroy me, I value your opinions.

Time to move on anatomy schizo. End of an era for Pixologic. Blender still isn't industry standard. Autodesk is still king. Mass layoffs happening right the fuck now in addition to WW3 happening soon. It won't be long till you see actual ecorches when it starts.

I'm not seeing the relationship between the latissimus overlapping the serratus anterior, also your infraspinatus is lacking volume, and the teres major is not well defined. You're also missing the insertion of the obliques into the anterior superior iliac spine.

The ribcage definitely is quite off still, thanks for pointing it out, and once I connect the arms I'll be able to refine more the muscle groups interacting between the torso and the arms.
I'm still early on in the process so the model is gonna look wonky for a while, hopefully comes together at the end tho.

good projection. i think you need to have another look at neck. i think it's too skinny and needs more volume towards the back. it 'tapers' a bit too much as well - i think it's the way you've doing the sternoclaidomastoid that's causing this.

Thorax-rib cage/legs depth ratio is off.
I find the scapula a bit high.
I know strong legs are not uncommon with Asians, but still, strong legs are strong.
the neck feels like an inverted pyramid instead of being cylindrical of slightly pyramidal, also as the anon said, neck looks too thin.
Ears are too strong, out of proportion.
Calves/ankle ratio, whole legs...
At this point you should take a break and come back to it later.

guy who suggested the vface, personally the way i'd do it is:
- don't bother projecting details in zbrush
- bake a regular displacement in zbrush
- then in the renderer directly mix the zbrush displacement with the uncalibrated displacement map from xyz
- uncalibrated disp map needs to be split into r/g/b channels and mixed in different ratios
that map is huge, but you don't lose any detail this way at all. eventually you can just bake your mixed map out.
i will say i think you're missing a lot of mid-frequency detail in your face sculpt, esp if going for photorealism. this will probably put you in more doll like territory. you'll see it when you go into render and compare to for e.g. one of the scans.

>>973991
Man that is pretty similar to what I did, I separated the uncalibrated displacement map's rbg channels into their own files and put them on different layers in zbrush, then manually sculpt the rest, thing is, this is a game model so I'm going the PBR route and will be baking a normal map, colour, roughness and spec for use inside unreal engine so I will not be applying displacements inside a non real time renderer.
>i will say i think you're missing a lot of mid-frequency detail in your face sculpt, esp if going for photorealism
This is on purpose, I want this model to look like a modern final fantasy character or similar, since I really like that style, if I start pushing secondary shapes and tertiary details too much it will look too realistic and make her look older.
>you'll see it when you go into render and compare to for e.g. one of the scans.

oh fair enough in that case. i don't really do real-time or stylised stuff. fwiw:
- get into unreal asap, you'll make a bunch of changes after seeing how it shades. it's always the case
- maybe go up a subdivision if your machine can handle it like the other anon said. it does feel like you're losing too much detail during project. or just blend the maps in painter or smth. that said, i think you'll probably end up barely using it for that ff look, so yeah just do a shading test first.
Anonymous at Wed, 14 Feb 2024 22:48:25 UTC No. 974044

I believe that's the case, he needs to go 1subdiv more, since he's projecting the displacement to later bake on a texture a normal map, because it's real-time and 16k displacements are not what it's used on realtime.
If he needed to render in Arnold I wouldn't even mind to project on Zbrush, I would use the textures like they are.
>>973938
I recommend go 1 more subdiv and mask and inflate the details for the lips, so they are more noticeable, I usually mask by texture and I use the cavity map to do it.
Now it's still a bit noisy, but it's just lack of resolution. The body is ok, I don't think that is exaggerated, because with sss it will tone down a bit.

Yeah I agree, I decided to take a look at how the model looks in engine, here's a first quick look inside unreal, I'm kind of skipping ahead a few steps and jumping into the engine but from here on out I can go back and forth reimporting textures as needed.
Also got to get cracking at the eyes and hair.

yeah ended up baking a normal plus a detail normal texture tile in engine.
>I recommend go 1 more subdiv and mask and inflate the details for the lips, so they are more noticeable.
yeah I'll just crank up the layer with the details in zbrush and rebake the normals, I'll probably do it a bit later just to do something out of zbrush for a while.

pretty good so far. the lipstick mask looks a bit smeary, but not sure if it's just weird SSS.
also, a few people have pointed out issues with the clavicles, but it's still the weakest part of the sculpt. i've done pic-related to highlight problem areas.
i think you're misinterpreting the shape of the clavicle and yours isn't curvy enough. i'll post an anatomy reference next

yeah need to get on it asap, admittedly I struggle with the hair workflow, I don't know which technique/software is the best but I'm thinking of going alembics for the eyebrows and eyelashes plus maya gs curve tools for placing cards.

Again man.
I've seen people stuck on anatomy studies for years unable to move further along the character creation pipeline thus being unable to understand that there is more to characters than just getting trapped in the zbrush perfect anatomy sculpt loop, just because they saw one too many Raf Grassetti videos and now they're stuck endlessly working on perfecting their anatomy. I don't wanna be one of those people, there is more to creating appealing characters than just "perfect anatomy", whatever that may be.

His problem is his own pride about making everything himself. Could've just resorted to being a base mesh boy to help him finish this faster. No direction = never going to finish. All he has is a nude jav model to go off of. Not even a concept art to follow. No other organic assets. No idea what the final render will look like. Nada. He probably just wants to edge on his project and call it quits.

I don't think you need a concept, just a reference, because its just a naked Japanese girl, maybe he can put her on a kimono or something, but you don't need concepts for that, just references. If it was something like a fantasy Japanese samurai girl with a weird costume/armour your definitely need to concept more, but what he is doing is just an attractive Asian without any clothes

I don't see the shallowness. Like at all. Be careful adjusting her face. Be careful that you don't sabotage a good thing.
Asian faces are typically flatter than other races. Not trying to insult asian people or anything. It's just a trait that makes asian people look asian. If you remove that flatness, then she might look very different.

From the model alone you're not gonna make much money, because the model itself is a pretty niche item that only creators will purchase, so your buyers are limited to people who want to make things but for whatever reason don't want to model their own character.
Doesn't hurt I guess to put it on sites to sell it's not like anyone's going to steal it and become rich.
If you want consumers to buy you'll need to do your own animations and since your a dirt poor thirdie you'll have to rely on cheap or free sound packs until the ball is rolling. Seems like a full time job though to make that kind of shit and I don't know how good the returns are for the time

I barely ever go out, women noticing me would be a monumental achievement.
In any case I'm working on learning Marvelous designer and will get back to her as soon as I have a basic understanding of it, also writing down the workflow so my next project will be done much faster.
Here's another anatomy study cause I'm no slacker.

I know but she really needs clothes, it's weird if she's just naked, but I gotta learn Marvelous for that, for what it's worth I'll use her as a base model to finish the next project faster.

Can't put off learning clothes any longer. It's time. You already achieved a high level in anatomy and all that other shit. Now it's time to learn cloth. I want to see an update SOON. I don't care if it's it's a ragged broken piece of polygons clipping through her body in a horrendous way. Post something.

What's crazy is you can simulate wet clothes and use that in renders, if you take the time to learn it it's so worth it.

The underlying model is doing a lot of the heavy lifting that's why I think it looks good and well also the program is the one doing the simulation, the real challenge is taking these meshes out of marvelous and into the graphics engine and still make them look good, so we'll see, it will probably take me another week or so to get the hang of it.
>>983750
Yeah from what I can gather marvelous is really incredible I don't know why I slept on it for so long.

I've been trying to understand your pipeline, but I'm having some difficulty with the Unreal Engine segment. Could you share any documentation or insights on your specific pipeline? It would be immensely helpful.

I was only a few hours into the project at that point.
>>983854
I wouldn't really take anything I've posted in this thread as a guide since I haven't really shared anything specific when it comes to the technical aspects of the project, that being said I'm not deviating too much from the usual game model pipeline, in which you import a mesh into the engine and incorporate your textures into a shader, I'll upload the project here once I'm done if you want to take a look.

Shit, man. Sucks to live in a place with no air conditioning. You know what would help? Dig a basement into your house. Borrow some cement to sure up the foundation. Then, weld galvanized square steel. Fastening the frame with expansion screws you borrowed from your second aunt. Then cover the frame with eco friendly wood veneers.

ok so after a couple of months of working with Marvelous I have realized it really is ideal to use it to get a base for your models and then further flesh them out in zbrush, so I kinda wasted some time trying to get some very specific details in MD when all I had to do was just do that in zbrush and use the exported MD model as a base, it is good tho sculpting is definitely more fun than using MD.
I'll be updating until the thread dies.
