7/2/2023 0 Comments Blender animation character![]() ![]() If you need to work with shadows & more lights be careful with the performance because is very painful, especially on mobile devices. To be focused on animation on this post, I decided work without shadows and with one ambient light, with this setup we will have a pure colored And more cartoon style character. In this case (cartoon style) I changed Diffuse to #ffffff and 1.0 of intensity and Specular intensity to 0.0 (and automatically our material change from MeshPhongMaterial to MeshLambertMaterial when we export it). ![]() Be careful with the name of your materials & textures to prevent errors, because if you don’t change them, by default Blender use ‘Material’ and ‘Texture’ and if you have two different models with the same name only render the first that was loaded. Now you will have the option ‘File > Export > Three.js (.json)’ activated. Press ’Save User Settings’ & close de ‘User Preferences’. If you move the exporter to the correct folder you could see the Add-on ready to be checked. After in Blender, Open ‘Flie/User Preferences’ and with the ‘Add-ons’ tab selected search for ‘three’. I used the three.js 79 revision for this tutorial but in the future is recommendable to use the last ‘master’ one. First, you need to move from ‘/utils/exporters/blender/addons/' the ‘io_three’ folder to ‘scripts/addons/‘ folder where your Blender app is isntalled. Exporting a textured Mesh (not animated yet) to three.js blend files & source files of this part of the process: texturing.zip Eva textured on Blender 4. You can learn how I made it and download on step 4. I use Photoshop to draw the texture, but before to start texturing, I have prepared a basic three.js template to view the changes on a webGL scene instead on Blender. ![]() Is recommended to reserve more space for important/detailed parts of the model as face, and reduce the size of less important parts as hair, legs or arms. First, I make the UV Mapping making all the seams that I consider necessary to obtain something like the below image. Mapping/Texturingįollowing this tutorial you could have the basic motions to made it. blend files & source files of this part of the process: modelling.zip Eva model has around 700 faces (1400 triangles) 3. I think there are many ways to model a character as 3D artists, I guess you have to understand how we will animate it and what performance you need to add more or less polygons. To become familiar with Blender there are a lot of videos & post related, I started with these tutorials .Īnd one more specific was this Creating A Low Poly Ninja Game Character Using Blender that was very helpful to make our character. I made this character with Blender 2.77, but if you start this workflow in the future, try to use the last stable version in that moment. Is a good practice to draw the model in front & side view to use as background image/template on Blender. modelling.zip | texturing.zip | rigging.zip | animating.zip 1. blend files & source files of the different part of the process. Here is the github project with the code. This article aims to explain and share the work process I use to animate characters with Blender and to use them in WebGL projects based on three.js This guide will focus primarily on animation tutorials so this is perfect for anyone animating game assets or looking into animation as a career.View final character animated (Double click to change the animation) The goal Double click to change the animation This is an exciting time to learn Blender! The last few years have seen a big surge in users and the development team has responded by adding plenty of exciting new features. Blender is worth learning and easy to use once you get the hang of it. It was this fact that led to the new UI overhaul coming with Blender 2.8.īut beginners should not be afraid. In fact, Blender is so capable with so many features and options, it can be easily overwhelming to new users. Because it’s open source Blender leans towards flexibility and customization more than many other 3D programs. In Blender you can model objects, create textures, and animate models all under one roof. That means if you buy something we get a small commission at no extra cost to you( learn more)īlender is a powerful 3D computer graphics suite that’s totally free for all users.
