What’s the most idiot proof way of making a black and white rendering of an animu render resemble the manga look? I want to save time drawing by having vehicles and backgrounds get done in blender if that is possible.

To any prospective anime modelers: Start with box modeling your figures for a long time and learn to rig/pose that. Do not waste your time with sculpting until you hit the limits of what you can do with regular modeling, you can get way further than you probably realize.And if you can't draw, start learning to draw. A sculpting brush in someone's hand who can't use a pencil is practically useless.

Noggi just posted a 15 hour video about anime in Blender and DaVinci Resolve. It's not a tutorial course where you build a basemesh, but it does at least touch on basically everything. So it looks to mostly be useful as a reference for a narrow topic you might want more info on.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZWxEoa-Dwk https://noggi3d.notion.site/3d-anime-guide

Progress has been made on miro´s tutorial. But now i have a crease on the hand. How do i remove it? Smooth burush only smooths the polygons around the crease. Clay brush puts only clay on around the crease. Inflate brush inflates everything around the crease... I don´t want to dynamesh the whole hand. There must be a sculpting solution for this.

I'm doing AOE2 right now and am really struggling to understand WHY we are doing some things. Currently at the second model.He's disconnecting everything and isolating every mechanic like rotation and stretching. Is that so helpful during animation? When you layer 3 types of bones on-top of each other it just gets confusing to me honestly. I hope it will get less confusing the more I follow the course.Feel free to ignore my beginners confusion just had to rant a bit.

Remaking Miyabi currently for practice..I have really underestimated the amount of time that goes into all these accessories.Also how do they usually model these "hard surface" style hair for example? Do they use subsurface and just crease + sharp or do they just not use subsurface at all for these parts? Because the body is surely subsurfaced.

What is the best way to achieve a result like this, where the top of a curve is larger than the bottom part but only in a specific axis direction.Alt+S scales evenly so it's out of the picture and since the curve inherits from "one" piece of geometry I dont see how I could scale it like this.

I need a cel shader with double rim lighting where I can control the color and magnitude of the fresnel for light vs shadow separately, I have two issues with the current approach If I just add another fresnel and decrease the factor it gets absorbed into the big one because of blending. Also, the blue/red rim shouldn't be meeting the white rim (like it does on the nose) but I think the factor should fix that. Second, the add node changes the colors and I don't want that, but there's no other way to mix it because the non-light part of the fresnel is a black color. Any help would be appreciated

Okay let's have this talk.How do you guys do your jiggling.Physics or Rigging approach?I feel like the physics approach feels more realistic but also somewhat restrained? You can not fine-tune the look to how you want it to be.This might just be a skill issue as well.When I look at popular gacha-games and their models they appear to be using a bone based approach at least.What do you think is the more elegant/better looking way?
