I have two pieces of news, good news and bad news. Let's start with the bad news:
There won't be a process video this week
The new version of the app won't support old projects
4 hours of progress so far.
I'll try to drop a process video next week and continue working on the tails next weekend
Also, a new version focused on mesh cleanup improvements will be released this week, after which I’ll be taking a short break

Spotted a minor issue with the curl modifier that was messup up the topology. I'll drop an update in the next couple of days!
If you have any suggestions, feel free to share—I'll try to include them in this update if possible
Added a standalone HTML download for those who don't want to install an unsigned EXE. It's the fully working app, but without auto-installed icons, auto-updates (you'll need to swap files manually), or future presets. boosty.to/catarackta/posts/7…
The software guide is currently under development. As soon as I prepare all the material, I'll make a full post explaining the tools. Meanwhile, don't forget to give the cute harpy some pets.
Stylized HairMesh Creator 1.0 is out — free! 🎉
Draw curves on a head → get NURBS locks → convert to a clean quad mesh → export OBJ.
Made for stylized / anime hair. Windows, example project included.

The example hairstyle is based on a concept by @TKY_6a — thank you for the wonderful design!

Wanted to share these animations I did under @aferreirasimoes guidance! They're intended for a 3D side-scroller game. 😊🎮
Thank you Allan Lee for providing very helpful feedback, especially for the jump animation! 🙏

To expand the possibilities of using avatars, I started developing a plugin that converts MetaHuman data into ARKit curves. This allows using any camera for facial capture.
For testing, I used the Sunny head by @23Minks 23mink.gumroad.com/l/SunnyHe…
I know I haven't been posting much lately, but there won't be any content for a while. Currently relocating, so I won't have access to my PC for a bit.
