My new #VRChat avatar is now available on Gumroad and Jinxxy! I had fun making this goat girl and I hope people enjoy playing as her! polycake.gumroad.com/l/Polygoat jinxxy.com/Polycake/Pol... #3dart #3d #characterart #anthro

I had fun taking some marketing shots of my new #VRChat avatar, which I'll be releasing in a couple of days! #characterart #anthro

I haven't tried out Magica Cloth 2 but it's probably a lot better for cloth physics. In my experience, getting loose clothing like a skirt to not intersect with the character in VRChat using the VRChat physbones component requires setting up a lot of colliders and even then it's not perfect

VRChat now has their own physbones component. For what it's worth, I also used dynamic bones back then and I think the VRChat version is better

Thanks! It should be soon. I'm excited to finish and start working on the next character

This is what the setup looks like-

I set up the physbones for my new #VRChat in #Unity. The secondary animation on the bell was a fun little challenge. I tried to rely on max angle restraints but in the end I used some plane colliders to retain a good range of motion. #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart #furryart #anthro

I'm making some color variants for my new #VRChat avatar and I think my favorite so far is this deer inspired one #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart #furryart #anthro

So this is what the outline mask look like 😅 It prevents the inverted geo from turning the eyes white which is also creepy but in a different kind of way

Nice, I haven't taken a look at any of the pro features but I wonder if you could get a similar look using a shadow map

I didn't realize how much the video would get compressed on bsky - a lot of the rim lighting sort of disappeared but the close up still looks alright

I got the shaders set up for my new #VRChat avatar in Unity using Poiyomi Toon Shader. The shading effect adds some nice depth and saturation & I think the normal map helps the rim lighting in a nice yet subtle way. #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart #furryart #anthro

For this #VRChat avatar I'm relying more on a light bake with some more minor adjustments by hand. I also created a normal map from the high-poly and I'm excited to see how it will affect the final look #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart #furryart #anthro

I've modeled some hair and finished the retopology for my new #VRChat avatar! For this project I decided to try out RetopoFlow for #Blender. I'm still getting used to it but it's been very useful! #b3d #blender3d #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart #furryart #anthro

I've started working on a new #VRChat avatar and I thought it would be fun to post work in progress shots this time around. This is the #Zbrush model, all ready for retopo! #3d #art #3dart #digitalart #wip #characterart

I've made a quest-compatible version of my slime witch avatar for #VRChat! The mobile shader still doesn't support transparency but flipping the normals gave a pretty similar look 🤔
