Week 25

Straight to it, I edited the top quite a bit, for starters I added a collar to the shirt because I though it looked nice, then I removed the sleeves of the shirt, and lastly I removed some faces from the front of the shirt to make a boob window of sorts, I just thought it made the top look more unique, I also gave it a bit of style as well, because I shaped the boob window in the shape of a heart which I think looks nice. The last thing I did was I had to extrude down from the boob window as I needed those face so that the player could see them in game, otherwise the player would be able to see through the shirt if they looked down in VR.

I thought that if the character had a collar, why not giver her some sort of neck ornament, like a tie, or bow tie of some sort. I decided on doing a tie as I though that it would look good. I started by making a box, then shrinking it down to fit the collar, then lastly I extruded down and scaled it up to get a tie shape. I then shaped it to fit the body 


Lastly I wanted to make my character look more like a brawler so I decided to add in gloves, due to most brawler characters having gloves for fighting purposes. It was really easy to make the gloves, I basically just selected the hand and deselected the fingers and thumb, as I went with finger less gloves, then I deselected the knuckles as I thought the gloves would look better, then I duplicated the selected verts, and scaled them up a tiny bit so that they were bigger then the hand. I decided to extrude the polys around the knuckles up to make it look like they had more padding, I did this to add more detail to the characters theme.

Lastly as I am running out of time, and I want to get this project in VR I don't think I will have time to texture the model, so instead I will be using shaders instead. Although it is faster to use shaders and they do look pretty good, it is very limited on what you can do, for instance you cant partially paint on faces with shaders, it has to cover the entire face, which can make the colours look blocky in some areas. 

Anyway I chose to use Red as my primary colour for my character, for two reasons, one is I like the colour Red, and two the colour Red can be used to show anger or rage, which are traits that brawlers use a lot. The colours are very simplistic but that's because I had to use shaders which meant I was limited, but I think all the colours in the end turned out pretty well.

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 ...

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...
