Character Creation Tips

  • I'm not particularly good at making characters in 3D games, so if any of you are, could you please give me tips on how to make my characters (Castanic male and Elin) not look like a troll?

    Here's a character I made, please give feedback and tell me what I can improve: https://imgur.com/a/fhJZX

  • For castanic, just touch your face to get a feel about the proportions, then adjust the sliders accordingly and fine tune to your liking. For elins the main focal points are to make the jaw not look like a duke nukem one, to keep the eye distance reasonable and to not overkill it with the cheek size.


    By the way your elin model's mouth is only good for screenshots (except for ninjas. It's fine for that). If you make the mouth like that, it'll gape open on idle loop.

    Don't argue with the walls...

  • It would be best to take a little time running around Highwatch, taking close-up screenshots of characters you like. Then take your time with the char creation tool.
    Here's a few Elin random screenies:





  • If you are going for a cute/childish face I highly recommend this preset made by Elindesuu.
    I have used it in most of my elins (with a little bit of changes) and it works really well for every face imo.

  • Can I ask your opinions on the character I made? Like tell me what you think, are the eyebrows messed up, are the eyes too high, are they too far apart, etc etc...
