I often handle the entire process—from initial planning to final production—solo, though I also participate as a supervisor or team member for larger-scale projects. As a 3D generalist, I take a hands-on approach to most stages of the creative workflow.This project was my submission for Pwnisher’s ‘Dream Sequence’ challenge held earlier this year. The core task was to express a sense of motion synced to 120bpm music, which I chose to interpret through the theme of DJing. I wanted to make the visuals more engaging by integrating traditional Korean elements. Drawing inspiration particularly from the energy of BLACKPINK’s ‘JUMP’ music video, I worked with the vision of a DJ festival taking place in a near-future Seoul. <div data-youtube-video="" style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0; position:relative;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RJ1oyLj1bXk?start=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" width="800" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:100%;"></iframe></div><h1>How was Marvelous Designer utilized in this project?</h1>Character design was pivotal for this work, as the entire scene—including camera animation, stage lighting, and fireworks—revolves around the central DJ figure. While the character wears a Hahoe mask (a traditional Korean mask) to highlight cultural roots, I also needed to convey a streetwear aesthetic that fits a modern DJ. Therefore, the core objective was to create a costume that naturally fused Korean traditional beauty with a contemporary street vibe. <img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202604/4caba29455c442e1b0087639cd5190ac/images/af5324c8bd864f409286adf7141024b4Capture%281%29.png" alt="af5324c8bd864f409286adf7141024b4" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="af5324c8bd864f409286adf7141024b4" data-width="3840" data-height="2088">Marvelous Designer was an indispensable tool throughout the detailed planning and production of these garments. Beyond standard clothing creation, it proved highly efficient for incorporating complex elements like the Gonryongpo (royal dragon robe) features and traditional Korean patchwork details.<h1>What are your favorite features or tools in Marvelous Designer?</h1><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202604/4caba29455c442e1b0087639cd5190ac/images/000dce68176b439b8969df0a47b70bd9Capture%282%29.png" alt="000dce68176b439b8969df0a47b70bd9" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="000dce68176b439b8969df0a47b70bd9" data-width="3840" data-height="2088"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202604/4caba29455c442e1b0087639cd5190ac/images/0e41e67229e34b099a316382c5412617Capture.png" alt="0e41e67229e34b099a316382c5412617" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="0e41e67229e34b099a316382c5412617" data-width="3840" data-height="2088">First, I frequently use ‘M:N Free Sewing.’ As garments become more complex, the sewing process can often get confusing or tricky. However, as long as you know which patterns connect to which parts, this feature allows for a fast and intuitive workflow, which is a massive help in saving production time.Second is the ‘Attach to Measure (Avatar)’ feature. Although I didn’t use it for this specific project, it is incredibly useful for securing garments to the character. For example, simulations can sometimes become unstable when fabric is tucked inside shoes; in such cases, I use this tool to pin the cloth to the ankle area for stability. It’s also great for scenes with hanging fabrics, like curtains, where the support structure isn't visible in the camera frame. By attaching the fabric to a simple primitive, I can achieve a natural look very quickly—making it a go-to tool when I need to deliver results on a tight schedule.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202604/4caba29455c442e1b0087639cd5190ac/images/c2aa6cd51b894619a5afb4ace292b2bcCapture%283%29.png" alt="c2aa6cd51b894619a5afb4ace292b2bc" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="c2aa6cd51b894619a5afb4ace292b2bc" data-width="3840" data-height="2088">Lastly, I frequently utilize the ‘Graphic (2D Pattern)’ feature. I often create and export Diffuse maps directly within Marvelous Designer, and this tool significantly boosts my efficiency. It allows me to intuitively visualize how graphics are applied to a pattern even before the UV unwrapping stage, making the overall workflow much more streamlined.<hr><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.behance.net/soohwan_art">Behance</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/ohso0hwan">Instagram</a><h1>Stay tuned for our special series featuring Su-hwan Oh’s diverse portfolio and his expert Marvelous Designer know-how!</h1>

I'm Mendy BM, game character artist from Brasil, based in Spain. I started my professional career creating modular digital humans for medical learning, and since 2022, I've been working in the game industry, creating fantasy characters and creatures for games.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/c150fb25bbe144929c0d906351c131fe1_mendy-bm-Dark-Elf.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="c150fb25bbe144929c0d906351c131fe" data-width="1730" data-height="1730"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/e3413a1a2205468aa386c517f4e6fad01_mendy-bm-mendybm-ecorche.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="e3413a1a2205468aa386c517f4e6fad0" data-width="1280" data-height="1707"><h1>Please tell us about the project. What inspired you to choose Tuxingsun from the Chinese literature Investiture of the Gods as your project?</h1>Since the beginning of my career, I've been following <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.artstation.com/tianhuaxu">Xu Tianhua</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.artstation.com/yangqi917">Yang Qi</a>. Their work is a great inspiration for me. "Tuxingsun" concept made by Xu Tianhua, always caught my attention with his little body and unique face features. At the research stage, to know more about the backstory of the character, I found John Zhu's Chinese Lore Podcast, where he retells classic Chinese literature in English, and I fell in love with it. China has a millenary culture, which has many of the biggest inventions in the humankind history, and I'm very interested to know more, especially about their art.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/2d3da966582b434784dd157086d20d2f1_mendy-bm-Tuxingsun.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="2d3da966582b434784dd157086d20d2f" data-width="2048" data-height="2048"><h1>How did Marvelous Designer assist you in realizing the vision for Tuxingsun's costume? Did you use any specific features or techniques that helped bring authenticity to the fabric and clothing design?</h1>I started the Tuxingsun project to familiarize myself with Marvelous Designer and I found incredible the possibility to work with sewing patterns, like is done in real-life cloth industry. Also, being able to work on the 2D pattern window and see the changes in real time, at the 3D window, is something extremely handy and powerful for recreating cloth designs. Additionally, there are a great number of fabric presets available, experimenting with it is so important to bring authenticity to the fabric, as well as finding the right pattern for it.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/152355aa363e4e66b69ef467e385827cTx_mendy-bm-camisa2.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="152355aa363e4e66b69ef467e385827c" data-width="1920" data-height="1920"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/aa8be76704134d2b83b764b1fa19a134Tx_mendy-bm-pano1.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="aa8be76704134d2b83b764b1fa19a134" data-width="1920" data-height="1920"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/8014037f03ee4f9db2e546bbb932a485Tx_mendy-bm-front.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="8014037f03ee4f9db2e546bbb932a485" data-width="1920" data-height="1920"><h1>Can you give us a quick overview of the different tools used in your pipeline?</h1>When I start a project, I spend a good amount of time finding good references, then, I use PureRef to make the reference board, selecting just a few images on each topic.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/aa7777cfe41e41869d56b0a7041ec0a84_PureRef_Tuxingsun.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="aa7777cfe41e41869d56b0a7041ec0a8" data-width="1478" data-height="942">After that, I go to Zbrush, to sculpt the character's and prop's basic shapes, with all my attention on proportions and silhouette. On personal projects, at this stage, I make pauses every now and then, to rest the eyes and be able to see clearer the results I'm getting, furthermore I often use Krita to make "correction" drawings on screenshots of Zbrush.Once I got a result I'm happy with, I moved forward to create the garments at Marvelous Design, taking advantage of its incredible cloth simulation power. After that I returned to Zbrush, and created the high poly version of everything, refined some folds and added all the details.Following, I used 3D Max to create the low poly version of the character and then imported it on RizomUV to work on the UVs. Finally, on Adobe Substance Painter, imported the lowpoly, and did the bakes and textures for the whole character.For rendering and final testing, I tend to use Marmoset Toolbag and Unreal 5.<h1>What challenges did you face during the creation process, and how did you overcome them?</h1>For me it was the number of layers, making the garment without the pieces intersecting with each other was complicated and the "freeze" tool was very important to overcome this challenge. I had to freeze and unfreeze the cloth elements many times, going back and forward, activating the simulation to create the folds that I wanted, and simultaneously, trying to maintain the elements hierarchy.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/d2786d02057c4077b7888f4f1663f2d55_Tuxingsun_steps.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="d2786d02057c4077b7888f4f1663f2d5" data-width="1478" data-height="942"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/21c4cbc7118945b1919b48da2a28a50f5_marvelous_capture2.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="21c4cbc7118945b1919b48da2a28a50f" data-width="1920" data-height="960"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/fdd29bc8a6c1444983e819de713f3f625_marvelous_capture1.JPG" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="fdd29bc8a6c1444983e819de713f3f62" data-width="1920" data-height="960">Also, when I created the patterns, the cloth was small on Tuxingsun's body. Because of that, I had to "add more fabric" and this broke the hierarchy. So to avoid this, when I started over, I used a high particle distance to get the shapes, then I changed to a lower value and used many pins to simulate it and create the desired folds again.In summary, to maintain the hierarchy, the freeze and unfreeze features, in conjunction with the pins, were my best friends in this project. This was the most time-consuming part of the work.<h1>Are there any tips and tricks with Marvelous Designer that you can share with the community?</h1>The first tip: take your time to find patterns, this will save you a lot of time. Even though it's difficult and frustrating to find patterns on the internet, humans have started to create garments since ancient times; take the time to find them. Second tip: don't forget to use symmetry.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202412/1f7f0a3eddcf49d0bf364a01d959c66e/images/35f034d2d9f14fbbb097bc6ee02364be6_Tuxingsun%20process_translucent.jpg" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="35f034d2d9f14fbbb097bc6ee02364be" data-width="1920" data-height="960">Third: when you have as many pins as I had, the translucent mode is very useful. In addition, more a feature than a trick, use the soft body simulation, it's an incredible feature that considers the elastic aspect of the skin.<h1>How can you describe your overall experience of the use of the Marvelous Designer?</h1>It's amazing, the software is very intuitive, and the interface is truly user-friendly. Nowadays it is the best software option to create 3D garments in the industry.<h1>by&nbsp;Mendy BM <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.artstation.com/mendybm">Artstation</a></h1>

[Job] On - Senior Lead: Computational Designer(Zurich, Switzerland)

Hi there CLO Team,I noticed there have been a few threads where people are asking how to export a CLO3D Avatar with a native CLO3D Animation including textures, and import the CLO3D Avatar with Animation and Textures into Blender.Also, here a CLO team member mentioned:<blockquote>-You can export an Alembic(OGAWA) to have the animation of the avatar + garment. Textures will be missing and you have to add them later in the 3rd party software.-You can export a gLTF 2.0 (GLTF) to have the garment animation + textures. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4407342113945/comments/4407493415577">https://support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4407342113945/comments/4407493415577</a></blockquote>I have tried to export a CLO3D Avatar with an applied Animation (via .mtn applied) as OGAWA (.alembic) file multiple times, but when importing the .abc file into Blender, unfortunately the exported 3D object doesn't come with unwrapped UV's and materials at all, so unwrapping becomes a very hard and tedious task if one wants to reuse the original textures. Please correct me if I am missing something.Therefore I was wondering if you have a tutorial video or advice on best practice how to solve this part "Textures will be missing and you have to add them later in the 3rd party software."?The alternative workflow that works for me would be to use an external animation via Mixamo as I've explained in this quick tutorial here:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCrPyLGO7qC/">https://www.instagram.com/p/DCrPyLGO7qC/</a>I have an existing garment simulation with a native CLO3D Avatar Animation which I would like to keep, therefore I am asking before having to redo the process with the alternative workflow, going via Mixamo.Many thanks in advance and I'm looking forward to your feedback!
