Week 21

Okay last time, but I edited the back of the hair again, because I did a little more research by looking at different Characters hair, from games like Genshin Impact or Honkai Star Rail, I also looked at different avatars from VR Chat. But the reason on why I edited the back of the hair was because I thought it looked too messy, and I thought the way it was positioned, it might make the rigging look bad. So I removed some strands of hair, added a few more strands of hair on top to add more detail, and moved the hair around a bit as well as straighten it, so it is easier to rig.


I am soo done with the Hair that as soon as I uploaded the image above I thought, huh. I could make it a little better, so I extend the top strands of the hair a bit to make it seem like there is detail in the mid section of the hair.


Hopefully I am done now with the hair, but it depends if I find any other parts of it that I feel needs improving. I know I keep fine tuning little parts on my model, but these little changes that I am making, can make the model look 10 times better at the end. An example of this is the head of my model looks so much better then it started off, or the feet which took a while to make look right. 

Last thing is that I decided to keep the outfit the same, except I want to change some aspects of it. I wanted to make it look more like a witch or in the style of Genshin Impact outfits. 
 
I got someone to draw the concept for the outfit which I thought turned out pretty well, however I feel there are some aspects that the original outfit had done better, so for the end product it might be a mixture of both outfits.

Week 19

To start this Week I went back to the fringe and edited it around a bit to make it look better, I also added a few extra strands of hair to make it look more detailed and on top of the head I made a Cowlick. I start the Back of the Head by making two long strands of hair, and then editing them slightly so that they don't look too similar, as if the all the hair strands on the back of the head look the same it might look wrong and that it has been fabricated instead of naturel. This time I used the Mirror modifier to make the hair symmetrical, I don't finish the hair though, I just add a few more hairs by using the mirror modifier. Whilst I was making the Hair strands I was still keeping in mind to change the flow of the hair and the direction the bottom of the hair was pointing to make it look more natural. I think it is coming along pretty well, however there are still holes in the hair that people can see through, after watching Darcy's video it was easy to cover up these...

Week 17

Last Week I had done the feet, this Week I move onto the las body part needed for the model, which are the hands. Yet again I looked at the Youtuber 2AM for how he made the hands, because the model will be consistent if I follow the exact same guide all the way through. Like the foot we will start by making a box and loop cutting (Ctrl + R) it, but this time we will loop cut it 3 times along the Z and Y Axis, and once along the X axis. Then I scale the box down along the Y axis, I move the box up select the bottom faces and extrude them down along the Z axis to get the wrist of the hand. Then I delete the faces where the first finger would go, then like the foot I make a circle which has 6 edges, I scale it down to be about the same size of a finger and then I extrude it upwards along the Z axis. I then Loop cut Twice on the finger to get the joints, and then I make two more loop cuts on each joint one above both Joints and one below to make supporting edges. I face off the top of the ...

Week 20

Now that the Hair is done it is down to the last part of modelling which will be the cloths. I looked at 2 AM for his tutorial on how he makes cloths for his characters, he looked at games like Genshin Impact, and Honkai Star rail and how they design their characters outfits, and used some of the same methods to create an outfit for his character.  (39) He made the cloths by either selecting some parts of the body and then duplicating it, and separating it to get the cloths, or he made certain parts from scratch like the jacket, or the chains. This video is very helpful as I wouldn't know where to start on making cloths, but this video helps clear things up and simplifies it in a way which makes it easy to understand how to make an outfit.   Although I have a modelling sheet for my character and I have been following some of it and changing other parts, I was thinking that I could change the clothing or the theme of the character to something different, the first Idea was...
