The style is also inspired by the current trends of Jean Jacket, juicy makeup and bob hair.<h1>A Workflow For Swan</h1>1) Face Modelling in ZbrushFirstly, the model’s face was made in ZBrush. The aim of the model was to reflect a woman during her early-mid 20s.I used a multi-channel face purchased from Texturing XYZ to work on the finer details of her face.2) Garment Making in Marvelous DesignerThe next step was to model the body.I used Marvelous Designer to create a well fitting garment for Swans’ body shape.I purchased a base denim jacket &amp; Skirt set on Marvelous Designer Store and imported the patterns into Marvelous Designer to edit.Some patterns were merged for convenience for further editing.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/e0182a0616c74cd4bb81ce435a435bd9%EC%8A%A4%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B0%EC%83%B7%202024-01-21%20175458.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="e0182a0616c74cd4bb81ce435a435bd9" data-width="1132" data-height="600">For the next step, I edited the pose in 3Ds Max and converted it to an Alembic file then imported it to Marvelous Designer to apply the changed pose.The picture below indicates that the costume was simulated in the pose shown.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/043eb0819c3f4e9e9442203f222915e28bf71628e31f42f5936b655f14b30289.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="043eb0819c3f4e9e9442203f222915e2" data-width="602" data-height="317">After remeshing the patterns, each of Pose Mesh and Pattern Mesh were converted to OBJ files then imported into 3Ds Max.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/67dee29ffa19488492955c1fa9b948f4%EC%8A%A4%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B0%EC%83%B7%202024-01-21%20175603.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="67dee29ffa19488492955c1fa9b948f4" data-width="1317" data-height="692">Substance Painter was used for the texturing process to express finer texture and fading of the denim jacket.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/8d0aea0e7f5e4ab5946fd8e28679a233%EC%8A%A4%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B0%EC%83%B7%202024-01-21%20175749.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="8d0aea0e7f5e4ab5946fd8e28679a233" data-width="1129" data-height="595">3) Hair ModellingOrnatrix was used in Hair modelling.Based on the Guide Mesh I made in Zbrush, I made Cardmesh in Ornatrix. I used the same method for her eyebrows as well.4) Final Lighting and RenderingPastel pink was chosen for the background to express a joyful and lively Swan.Marmoset Toolbag was used for final lighting and rendering.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/8925e77ffbdf44c3b65a7a1e8ab32224%EC%8A%A4%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B0%EC%83%B7%202024-01-21%20175922.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="8925e77ffbdf44c3b65a7a1e8ab32224" data-width="1110" data-height="600"><h1>Experiences in Marvelous Designer and Marvelous Designer Store</h1>I absolutely enjoy using Marvelous Designer Store to save time on pattern making.It takes less time when I modify the purchased patterns to fit into the character than making patterns from scratch.The cloth simulation in Marvelous Designer also enables me to have intuitive and efficient workflow.Any changes made in the 2D window are directly reflected in the 3D window.Another advantage of Marvelous Designer is the compatibility with a variety of 3D software such as Maya, ZBrush, and 3Ds Max.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202501/4270453fe91e4daea857e08ede594e21/images/5231bff209634cceb2427fb0efca5a9d%EC%8A%A4%ED%81%AC%EB%A6%B0%EC%83%B7%202024-01-21%20180039.png" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="5231bff209634cceb2427fb0efca5a9d" data-width="1125" data-height="592">Link to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVoQTOFddiTlz4pI_MuW0hw">Youtube&nbsp;</a>Link to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://softbeast.artstation.com/">Artstation</a>

Hello, CloI've noticed this for a while now, but it really pissed me off today.I have a huge amount of custom PBR fabrics that I create for a client. If I make any changes to the texture maps, say changing the texture format from .png to .jpeg, Clo saves the .ZFAB fabric along with the old .png. This increases the size of the fabrics significantly, making the models take longer to load.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202508/d3f93968487842a8b34cd7cf07e6d492/images/7b2ab639e07042af8b2e704004a7edeeimage.png" alt="7b2ab639e07042af8b2e704004a7edee" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="7b2ab639e07042af8b2e704004a7edee" data-width="1381" data-height="415">Deleting .pngs directly from the archive and editing .json cause file's error and CLO to crush.So could you fix that?

Artist Introduction&nbsp;</h1>Hello, my name is Travis Davids, I'm from Johannesburg, South Africa and I'm a freelance digital artist and content creator.I primarily focus on creating 3D related content in the form of tutorials or resources for digital artists.My content is available on multiple websites like Youtube, Gumroad and Artstation.&nbsp;&nbsp;I’m a 3D generalist who loves experimenting with multiple workflows.I’ve been doing 3D full time since 2015 but my journey started in 2007 when i created mod items for a video game called The Sims.It sparked my interest to explore an expanding universe of endless possibilities.&nbsp;3D gave me a platform to bring my ideas and emotions to life.It’s something I'm very passionate about and I thoroughly enjoy the endless journey of self improvement. Love what you do and do what you love!&nbsp; <h1>2. What is Marvelous Designer's strong point?&nbsp;&nbsp;</h1>About 4 years ago I was looking for a really good solution for creating clothing.Time constraints and having to manually sculpt clothing just wasn’t a viable option for me.&nbsp;My only option at the time was sculpting clothing from scratch in ZBrush.Sculpting every single fold and crease was driving me insane. I have so much respect for artists that can sculpt clothing.&nbsp;I searched online and found a solution to my problem in the form of cloth simulation and that program was Marvelous Designer.It not only allowed me to work faster but the results it generated blew my mind the first time I used it.The ability to draft a pattern in a 3D program and see it drape on a digital human to generate realistic looking clothing with folds and creases was revolutionary!At the time, finding learning material online was extremely rare so I had to resort to watching YouTube&nbsp;videos of real fashion designers sewing clothing in order to understand how garments are created.I still follow this same approach to this day to understand how to draft 2D patterns and sew garments, it has helped me so much.I feel like the amount of learning material provided for Marvelous Designer today is growing steadily and I made it my duty a couple years ago to record tutorials for Marvelous Designer and put them on YouTube&nbsp;to show everyone how Marvelous Designer could save them so much time to create garments.I still upload Marvelous Designer tutorials on my channel and I have so much content in development.Marvelous Designer has become my go to solution for doing anything cloth related. I’ve used it to create a countless number of outfits.It’s perfect for fashion design but I’ve&nbsp;also used it for environmental props like curtains, bedsheets and pillows.&nbsp;Marvelous Designers strong point is speed, customization of garments, accuracy of folds/creases and the ability to iterate and change aspects of a garment with ease, it’s a completely non destructive process and it has become the industry standard.&nbsp;<h1>3.
