Easy Cape Physics on Dragon Ball Piccolo | Free Blender Addon & Character Creator

https://www.reallusion.com/character-... In this video, 3D Character Artist Peter Alexander (aka Mythcons) demonstrates the making of Piccolo’s floating cape from Dragon Ball. The cape is fashioned in Blender and simulated in Character Creator (CC) by using the CC/iClone Blender Tools plugin (a Blender addon made for CC).

Alexander spells out the painting of perfect skin weights by using Blender’s Gradient tool and reminds users to tend to hidden meshes during the transfer process. You can also pick up tricks from his detailed guide to help create your favorite anime/manga character with the streamlined Blender and CC pipeline. https://magazine.reallusion.com/2022/...
