Vtuber Mashiro Kanon Character Modeling & Texturing

I was in charge of making the 3D model and texturing of Mashiro Kanon (眞白花音), a Japanese VTuber mainly active on Bilibili Douga, a Chinese video sharing platform.

The modelling was done in a month, the texturing took a bit less than three weeks.
I really enjoyed doing brush-stroke-like texture, and it being 4K sized makes it look very clean and pretty. which doesnt happen much in other areas like video games.
Made basic Facial Expressions, like regular/happy eyes closed, the a-i-u-e-o shaped mouth, angry eyebrows, etc
This was my first project doing a full character with this many details, painting textures is so relaxing (when you dont paint on the wrong layer haha) although a bit time consuming if not careful!
The size is so big that you can add small details that can influence the whole look, I found a lot of fun in this.
For example, the diamonds on her left leg have a very soft shadow, on the same leg theres another soft shadow all the way down to her foot!

Character design was done by ana, you can find her twitter here: @ ana_ame0

Full render, made by my supervisor! (who was in charge of giving me FB but mainly rigging and unity set up)

The 3D model was based on a simplified version of this design
