3d Reference for Creature Development

Learn

Note: Fuse was discontinued and we now use the Miximo part of these tutorials

Watch the beginning section of this demo and skip past the Fuse part until I get to Mixamo.

Watch 00:00 - Introduction - 1:16

Then skip the Fuse Section (1:16-7:57) where we make a character shape in Fuse which was discontinued. Mixamo has enough to choose from now that we won't need that anyway.

Begin again: 09:14 - Opening Mixamo through the end.

Hero Forge as costume inspiration

You can pose from preselected poses and then adjust for a good silhouette.

If you use Hero Forge (external link) please use it as one influencer and not something to copy fully, due to copyright constraints. Be creative, have this be one thing you look at, and have Mixamo, and photos be another.

There are many predetermined assets to help you to remember types of options.
