Your most bestest super-duper render
Meanwhile you keep mocking me and masturbating to some NTR hentais, I keep working hard on my skills.
It's my most expensive workflow, but also the one that delivers the highest quality so far.
I have now mastered 3D.
Meanwhile you were argueing like idiots about tools and making fun of me, I was mastering blender and Krita.
I'm now really happy with this workflow.

I'd like to know if it's even feasible for someone with a full time job (40h/week) and a family to get into 3DCG for a hobby that eventually turns into a side hustle/passive income type of thing. With AI tools being more and more used/abused and the market already being flooded with autists that go all in on the prospect of being able make a living without leaving their bedroom being my potential competition.
1. I can probably squeeze 6-12 hours in a week at most.
2. I have experience with 2d graphics but never really got into 3d
3. The goal is to create 3d assets and models for game development, as well as 3d printing models. (That would come later as I would need a 3d printer for prototyping and double checking my models for physical properties)
So my question is: is this even doable? Should I invest hundreds of hours to hone a craft that will bring me peanuts, if anything at all? How important is marketing and getting social media coverage? I'm at a crossroads here and need someone to let me know if I'll end up in a dark Forest of frustration and suicidal thoughts if I go that way.

All I want is a 3D model of picrel so that I can 3D print him for my personal satisfaction. There's free Pepe 3D model but the face doesn't look like this one. Aaarghhh! It feels like shit that this is the first time I'm being scammed. Fucking indonesian.
I'm making a new /ueg/ then, please forgive the absence of links and other useful information normally associated with such kinds of threads but I was never a regular and therefore did not save them.

Is there a spline function or something similar to avoid doing 800 keyframes?
At this point I'm considering moving to some other software to acomplish my needs.
Ignore the random image.
Can I get a job with this kind of thing or should I forget about it. The rest of my life is going to be hell on earth, I never had a job. The only good thing I have in my life is that I'm not an incel (somehow I can land a gf from time to time, I think I'm good talking sometimes) that's all I have, also I like cute things a lot
im 99% sure its design doll, but i would like to know if anyone can confirm for me

Is this a good excuse to learn how to make porn animations in blender? been postponing learning animation and only did some basic scene modeling, but one of my bucket list thing was making porn of stuff like this

Catmull-Clark subdivision surfaces with supporting edge loops is not a alternative to chamfered edges. Not all smooth corners are the same. You "bevel" tool shits the bed on just about anything more complicated than your default cube. Your Booleans only work 70% of the time at best, even for simple object. This is not a way to live, and you should feel shameful.

Requests are welcome and you are welcome to criticize and even post your own superior sculpts, no rules for you!
Specifically, I’m really interested in how characters like pic related were modeled and textured to look semi-realistic and expressive (especially textures because I’m still terrible with them)
Feel free to post low-poly or just your favorite models/textures from the games of the good old era of games
I have absolutely no knowledge or experience in modeling, but I want to port some Touhou models from GTA SA to Sven Co-op. Is there any way that I can follow which will end with the model being ported over?

My PC just shat the bed and it's going to be a while before I can afford to fix it or replace it, so I'm trying to work with what I have. I have found apps for 3D modeling, animation, and even retopo, but for some reason nothing for rigging.
Thanks
Janny pls dont delete, this is for research.

The boolean modifier refuses to work and i've been coping by making empty boxes and filling them with sand and putting the positive mask and it leaks and it comes out like crap. I'm tired of doing this half assed. I'd like a proper mold for my mask that's airtight so I can make a mask I can be proud of.

How are you finding it so far? Any good? Worth publishing on?
Do not start doing A-Z when you cannot even do A.
I have literally wasted multiple years doing this. Give me some good /3/ advice, if you have it.
Let's talk about the best /3/ animated series ever and how they did it.
Without a reference I don't know how to make my animation look convincing. Are there any tutorials which explain the body movement ?
Sorry if I didn't explain properly, don't know how to quite explain myself.
Any shader and VFX expert can tell me how hard would be to learn to make this level of shader autismo?
here's homer simpsons i made in paint 3d, thoughts? lmk
So... how much longer until i'm making looped WEBMs of furry porn and charging a thousand dollars per character commission?
it gets better... right? i feel like a baby just learning to crawl.
but with 3D.
My reasoning for this is to avoid having to make two versions of every piece of apparel, body texture, etc.
I think I might run into issues with animations but that's probably doable via IK and adjusting skeletal proportions additively.
Are there any base meshes that do this already so i can start prototyping clothes/customization?
Here, a tutorial will be shown on how to do this from the basics.

Unreal Engine has Landscape, yes, but I'm not interested in Unreal, I'm talking older games like Skyrim, Fallout 3, or even GTA San Andreas which I replayed recently, like how the FUCK did they create those massive open worlds? Especially in SA's case I find it especially impressive, as it has both kinds of environments one would be faced with in tackling this endeavour, both natural (countryside, deserts, mountains) and man made (roads, sidewalks, skyscrapers).
I looked up possible answers on G*ogle but all answers are just news articles glorifying (rightfully so) Beth's and Rockstar's open worlds, but there aren't actual technical details like what program they even used, settings, that kind of stuff, nothing that can allow me some wannabe to even begin trying to ape their work. I did find a very useful GDC talk going over modular kits [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBAM27YbKZg ], but while great that video goes over buildings and interiors (they used 3DSMax, one could use Blender as well if they wanted to), not open world creation. They touch on it briefly in the video I just linked, but more on a conceptual level, like oh we first draw a map, then we define the coastline, then the roads etc. but I'd like to know, again, more technical details, like are these worlds created as a simple plane in 3DS/Blender, how do they go about texturing such a huge plane without using enormous textures, how do they export it into a game engine, do they import it whole or do they slice it up in pieces for optimization and whatnot, and so on and so forth
If you're already proficient in 3D, use this thread as a way to help new people grow with either tutorials you know of or general advice. I'll grab any that are good and try to stick them at the top of each new thread if this takes off
If your a /beg/ use this thread to ask questions or to post some of your works you've done.
Also, try to avoid the donut tutorial. We get enough of that on this board as is.

what a complete shitshow. Hope no one visits that place.
If you want an example just find rule34 sircus video with the 5 nurses or search 'sircus3d hentai'. I got some ideas I want to bring to life and I need my animations and models to look exactly like that.
What type of rig is involved here and will I need to use any scripts to get it to bend and move the way I want? His breast and butt physics seem on point too so I have to wonder if it's hand keyed+ physics rather than relying solely on the engines physics.

I would like to sculpt the diamond shape into the katana base but I don't know how.
I want to imitate this art shading in blender.
The issue is that the light and shadow boundaries doesnt seem to follow the definition if this was a 3D mesh.
They seem to imitate similar boundaries if the mesh were under a subsurf modifier and used a toon shader.
But at the same time the light shadow boundarie seems to follow very closelly if there are creases, similar in that area to a bevel operator more than a smooth subsurf surface. This is more obvious on the joint ares and the fingers and the groin area in some anime art, specially if there's something like a shirt of jeans.
The specular is closer to a metalic in PBR shaders or a phong model very shiny specular, It usually follow simpler shapes than the shadow, and sometimes is even the shape of circles or something that looks like the shape of a RIM light but beyond the area of a normal rim light.
There's also the reflected light of the ambient light, but this seems to follow something like a curvature map and a vector towards the left area of the camera view point.
There's also the RIM light, which follow fresnel logic, but in a simplified fashion.
Colors don't seem to follow really a realistic logic but more a color ramp type of logic.

I need a new tablet. To be honest, the Intuos Pro was perfect for the job but ever since I saw the Cintiq stuff, I've been desiring a tablet with a screen for the longest time.
The Cintiq are expensive though so save money starting today but are there other brands that maybe do similar products AND are quality stuff?
Would anyone be interested to start a small studio making asset packs with revenue share. Some of my work here: https://imgur.com/a/hiqJkQ8
looking for feedback as well
Asset packs will focus more on environments and props since from my experience those are easy to make and generate more revenue
An asset pack i made 2 years ago and spend like 4 days on, has generated somewhere to 500usd so if we make a 1 asset pack weekly/biweekly i believe its going to work
If you’re interested pm me on Discord: walter_1057
I’m expecting for at least similar quality to mine
looking for feedback as well
It seems quite good for generating small prop for kitbashing
Anyway, I wonder if anybody got a successful set up for ComfyUI to run locally. I'm only able to get it to work by sending the image to TripoSR API, installed through ComfyUI-Manager, which is not local ( at least the output is good and it's currently free for now )
I'm trying to install this sht but it's broken beyond repair
