I split them up so its easier the Rig the Breath parameter in Live2D I like splitting the body into two folders, Upper body and Lower body. I must admit that i'm not the best at rigging the body, i can show you what i do know though (but just to be sure, test if it can look from left to right, maybe up and down without the outline breaking?) Then we're nearly done, we still need a neck between the face plate and the middle hair, then thats the head done!Īll done, i added a little bit of Expression stuff too, you can go do that too if you want :> Then i as a finish'er i add the back hair, and i make sure the layers sprites overlap slightly even with the outline I always start with the front hairs, but then when i come to the part thats slightly more behind then i switch to the middle hair and then flip flop between till i'm happy about them Its very importent that the hair is able to create a small paralax effect like i said before, we do this by the splitting. I make my Hair by actually Splitting it into 2 or 3 parts, The front hair, The Middle hair, and the Back hair which is split into even smaller parts. When we come to rigging, then i normally bind the smugness to the EyeSmile param,
#ASEPRITE FLIP SKIN#
Oh and how i add smug is just by adding a small line of whatever skin color the character has under the eyes on a layer above the pupil and eye white.įor it to look good exported, it actually needs to be put a pixel or two down, so when you enable it in Live2D, it moves up into place instead of showing up by Opacity. The layers for me ends up looking like this, now do this for the other eye (or eyes) too. I split the Eyelash, Eyewhite and the Pupil, i keep my pupils in its own folder so you can add more pupils like a heart eye pupil or an angry/yandere one. You need to make a sprite for Open Eyes, Half Closed Eyes, and a Closed Eyes, i mainly only do that with the eyelashes Then i ether go and make the front hair, or the eyes i'll go for the eyes for this Tutorial Oh and remember to split everything into layers like a normal model. I always start by making the Faceplate of the Model. Okay so making a model, is kinda painful, but atleast we're gonna be in pain together! I think thats about all the info i got :> These Sprites Animations are just made by Making the different would be Frames on diffrent layers. Pixel-models, can look pretty nice when stuff just snaps from one position to another, the Opacity from switching sprites can look a bit Blurry if you arent careful.īellow are Exsamples of Opacity (The Eyes) and Snapping (The Wings), both work really well, but on the wings it makes sense just to snap else it will just create a Ghost'ish effect. Here you actually see i made a mistake on the Left looking one, its outline is a little off Generally you're gonna be able to recreate the Look left and Look right of the Model Inside Aseprite even before making more then the Head of the model. Pixel-models doesnt like being bended by a Warp-Deformer much, and in turn someone smart on the internet found out that you could split the hair into layers and make a simple Paralax Effect with them ( Org Tweet of that)

Note This is Part 1 in a series of Tutorials

So i thought it would be a good idea to show you how I make My Models and some tips i've picked up along the way aswell as some info and resources :> all of this into is just from my experience from making all my models

Making a Live2D model in pixels were kinda overwhelming, sinse at the time nothing of help were on the Internet about pixelmodels at all.
