Further progress on developing a custom breast rig for animations. I feel like it's looking a lot more natural now, I had to tweak some parameters since the last update to make it more fluid. Also I'll be able to have this system carry over into any new characters I make as well.
Currently it does not support deformations from other objects other than gravity, but I'm thinking of a few wa...

I may have over did the sweat a bit, but I was interested in experimenting with different shapes, placements, and shaders to make the sweat a bit more exaggerated. Also there was some detail I liked in the Tifa stretching animation that I felt was lost in the video render a bit.

Super super rough animation lol, it's just 2 poses interpolated. But here is some progress on a jiggle physics technique that I'm trying to develop. I feel like it's rare to see breasts in 3D animation deforming based on the torso's rotation relative to the direction of gravity, so I'm trying to set up a system that would allow me to do that in Blender. It's only applied to her left breast curr...

I feel like sculpting breasts is oddly like sculpting faces, there are a lot of small nuances to the shape that changes the appeal by a lot, plus they're different for everyone so there's also no right answer. But there's limits to anatomy so there are still also wrong answers, so it's tricky.
In addition, I'm also developing a rigging system that should allow the breasts to move more rea...

I was planning to keep a more simple style for Tifa's clothing, but I experimented with some cloth sculpting detail and I think it improves her appearance by a lot. I may also go back and add additional stitches to her shoes as well. Since the upfront work of creating the model is complete though, it should be quicker to use the model for many interesting animations. I do also have other charac...

This isn't the last revision, but all the keyframes are locked in for the most part! Next I'll be working on materials and lighting, but this is pretty close to how the final will look.

Got all the keyframes feeling a bit smoother, and got some jiggle in there too. Hopefully it's not too obvious, but there's no physics running in this scene currently. All the cloth movement and jiggle effects are all just hand animated, sometimes frame by frame like stop-motion. It's running at 24fps and is only 100 frames long and I know in my head how I want the movement to behave, so it's n...

I had an idea to start with a super short animation based off her victory pose to test the rig's current capabilities. It's still pretty rough right now and needs a lot of polish, but I think it's in a good spot to get the idea across for the time being!

I've been fleshing out the extremes of Tifa's facial expressions and sculpting custom face shape for them. This will help get that exaggerated squash and stretch feel into the animations!

A quick update on the current hair progress! Doing hair whether realistic or stylized is always a nightmare in my opinion, but I'm pleased with how this is turning out so far.
There are also some small adjustments to the shape of her cheeks and chin proportions.
After the hair is modeled in, next will be adding more detail to her clothing, and setting up her clothing for anima...

Chun-Li Mai Shiranui cosplay and Chun-Li Tifa Lockheart cosplay have also both been updated to work with the latest Rashid patch.
I tested the rest of my mods so-far and they all seem to still be working properly. There were only a few characters that had a mesh update in this patch and Chun-Li was one of them. The rest had material file updates which my mods happen to not depend on...

The weight-painting is looking good! I was attempting to also include her shoulder ropes and tail thing, but they were causing a few issues with the armature. Also I think it looks kinda cool simplified down like this. Maybe in a future update I'll get those in too though.
But for now, next is to create the new textures and materials!

Some more tweaks on her face proportions, it's feeling a lot better now I think. I also changed her eye texture to be more similar to her previous official models, specifically her KH2 textures. Another addition is her quickly blocked out a hair mesh, but the shape and shaders are still temporary.
And if you guys have any critiques or suggestions, feel free to let me know!

I have some mods already backed up in the pipeline, such as a "no shorts" version of my Chun-Li Tifa mod, and a Cammy Tifa mod, along with some other things. But I thought a Chun-Li Mai Shiranui cosplay mod would be pretty interesting to try out. Chun-Li's Outfit 02 is already maybe 40% similar to Mai's outfit.
I believe it should be possible to execute on this mod rather quickly, b...

An update to some tweaks I've been making to Tifa's face, with other iterations of Tifa as additional reference. I'll probably end up tweaking the face for a while, as even the smallest adjustments can improve the appeal by a significant amount. Also the short hair Tifa is just a prototype to see her not bald, using Yuffie's hair from Kingdom Hearts 3. If you have any critiques or criticisms of...

I took a short break from Street Fighter mods to work on my Tifa model a bit more. There's some shapes I'm still working out, but I completely remade her head and body from some things I learned while working with the Street Fighter meshes, and I think it's looking a lot better and simpler than my previous iteration.
I'm aiming to stylize her to be somewhere in-between her FF7R design and...

Juri's Nude Natural mod for her Outfit 02 is progressing well! I was able to get a pretty good quality exposed thigh variation by tweaking the UVs pretty heavily, but it animates just as well as the original model, so weight-painting was not an issue on this mod!
