A Live2D model made with NO model art??? 😯 Full showcase + breakdown: youtu.be/YcmZFS9h4WE 《 #Live2D #Live2DAwards12 #VTuber #SkyTok #SkyLight 》

In today's episode of "I can't believe I made this" I think this is hands down the best eye blink+smile I've ever rigged ❤️ (Can't wait to add the physics~) #Live2DWIP

After seeing so many vtubers in their cute Hollow Knight form, I had to try and design Hollow Megino too! ✨ I thought a lot about how to keep the drills while staying true to HK’s insect vibe, so in the end I decided to base the design on a luna moth! Yay or nay?

Ready for some impromptu rigmancing? We're going full throttle today, trying to get most of what's left of the Teto rig done! I'll be going live in a few minutes, drop by to say hi if you like! (Also, have you tried the new !hatpat command yet? 👀) #Live2DStream

I'm cooking, guys... I'M COOKING 🔥

I may or may not have spent last night learning how to mod PEAK only because I think it would be very cool to make a mod that sends the player status and afflictions parameters to VTube Studio... 👀

I’m so happy with how this pleated skirt turned out after adding physics! I could stare at it for hours ❤️ #Live2DWIP

Aaaaand we're rigmancing today at 2PM! Don't miss the chance to watch me regret my past rigging choices LIVE!!!

Sorry for the radio silence, everyone! The past few weeks have been quite taxing, both physically and mentally. I’ll be going live in a few minutes to get back to work on the Teto rig, so come hang out and chill with me if you’d like💖

🔴 LIVE NOW! Come chill with me while I try to get some work done ✨

I'll be streaming today as well, in about an hour! We'll be fixing up some details for the Angle Z and then maybe... finally... the physics?! Let's go full throttle and get as far as we can! 💫 #Live2DStream

We got a lot of work done, and I'm quite pleased with the results so far! The skirt in particular was a joy to work on, with all the separeted panels allowing me to get a neat 2.5D effect 💫 #Live2DWIP

⚫️ STREAM END! The stream today was lovely, thank you all for coming and keeping me company while I worked! 💖 I almost didn't notice that 6 hours had passed, time blindness really gets to me when I'm enjoying myself... I hope you all had a nice time too!

Surprise live NOW to continue rigging the Teto costume for Megino! I'll need to lock in and get some more work done, so it's going to be a quieter stream than usual (I'll yap a bit less about what I'm doing, but I'll still stop from time to time to look at the chat 😊) #Live2DStream

🔴 LIVE NOW! I also tried adding a couple chat commands (you can now headpat the rigmancer or toggle her hat 👀), do give it a try if you like!

I'll be live today at around 16.00, continuing the Live2D rig of Megino's new teto costume! We're going to rig the angles for the clothes and maybe even start with the physics ✨ Also, if you drop by to say hi you'll be the first live tester of the chat widget I coded myself 🥰

✨ I finished coding and styling my custom chat widget! ✨ You'll be able to see it live next time I stream! (this weekend, probably maybe perhaps?)

We made quite a bit of progress with the hair angles today ❤️ I can't wait to add the physics and see those drills sway and bounce on the screen! Vtuber & Art: @megino.bsky.social Rigging: @rigmancerkim.bsky.social #Live2DWIP

⬛️ STREAM END! Thank you to everyone that came by to chat or just to lurk about! It was lovely having you keep me company ❤️ We managed to finish rigging the base XY angles for the hair of Tetogino, so next time we'll probably tackle the clothes 💫

🔴 LIVE NOW!

✨ Impromptu rigging stream in about 30m! ✨ Let's chat together while continuing the rig of @megino.bsky.social's Teto costume 🥰

To celebrate @megino.bsky.social adding the Elgato Stream Deck to his streaming setup, I designed and rigged two custom icons for the Go Live toggle button! Go, little magister, spin those drills to the sky! ✨ #Live2D #Live2DComms

‼️Important VGen Update‼️ VGen artists, if you haven't yet PLEASE go check your VGen! This update will AUTO REMOVE your services from discoverability if you don't fix your forms! The update REQUIRES all forms to include a standardized licensing question ↻💬♡ to spread the word 💕 #VGen

My greatest joy of today's work was managing the seamless draw order transition of the bangs between the horns ♥ It's a small bit of magic, but it's the kind of thing that really makes a difference when you DON'T notice it. #Live2DWIP

⚫ STREAM END! Thanks to everyone who dropped by to check it out, I had a lovely time yapping with you while working on the model! Unfortunately the VOD wasn't saved because I'm a newbie and didn't know I actually had to turn on that feature...

🔴 LIVE NOW!

It's my very first time trying something like this, but at around 16.00 CEST today you'll find me streaming while rigging the new Teto costume for @megino.bsky.social !✨ Do pass by if you wanna say hi and watch me question my life choices (all those deformers, oh boy...) #Live2D

【📢】 #VTubeStudio v1.32.0 is now released!! This update adds Split Live2D Items (items you can really wear!!), new ADD/MULTIPLY expression modes and a bunch of other features for Live2D items!! ✨ Also, you can now pin stuff to other people during collabs, AND MORE!! 👇🧵 youtu.be/qHCZNCmRbqw

After the sphere, I'm now trying to get an icosahedron right to (hopefully) make a rollable d20 in Live2D. I think this is already pretty good, but there are some small imperfections at the edges where the texture connects (or rather, doesn't). Time to get to work! #Live2DWIP

✨ Vtuber Rigging Test ✨ Art + Live2D Rig by @rigmancerkim.bsky.social

I followed the amazing tutorial from @0x4682b4.com for making a rotating sphere in Live2D and this is just!! Woah!!!!

"Hey Kim, can you check out the new VTS feature that lets you pin items between layers?" "Sure." I am undoubtedly the most serious Live2D rigger you can find on the market.

How many vertices is a magister made of? Let's just say... a lot. #Live2D

Being an Italian rigger means looking at my baby after rigging a new parameter and going: “QUANTO SEI CARINA, BELLA DI MAMMA TU ❤️❤️❤️” — wishing I could squeeze their cheeks and buy them gelato.

After weeks of dueling with my showcase-phobia... another fumo doll officially joins the family! Behold Zeph’s marketable plushie form, in all his pointed hat glory! ✨ Vtuber: @zephhaathun.bsky.social Art: @megino.bsky.social Live2D Rig: @rigmancerkim.bsky.social #Live2DShowcase

💐🪻🌹🌱🌿 So much... physics... 🐯 Vtuber: @ taigavt 🐯 Art: @ C21H29N2O (Twitter/X) #Live2D

My life as a Live2D rigger be like

OK...I have tested out Live2D 5.3 alpha and have THOUGHTS - we can invert clip and also clip at the same time, by using folders to perform clipping as well (so you can have layers clipped to something and the folder they're in invert clipped to something, vice verse etc)

What I wanted to do: a small comparison between ye olde Aurelio and the renewed, nose-and-shadows-equipped Meneghino What I ended up doing: a silly EPIC AMV Sorry @megino.bsky.social, I failed you again (I regret nothing)

A new version of the great Magister Megino is coming! With improved head and body angles, redrawn horns, upgraded physics, and the new ability to lean toward the viewers, I'm really proud of this enhanced version and can't wait to see @megino.bsky.social use it in his streams 💖 #Live2D

I've been wanting to level up my body rigging/physics skills for a while, but I haven't found any tutorials that go beyond the basics... Does anyone have any resources to recommend? #Live2D #Live2DHelp #Live2DRigging

Fellow #vtubers Finally the fumo store is OPEN! Me and @rigmancerkim.bsky.social have teamed up to offer a nice model you can use as a funny redeem or as a main! To celebrate 500 followers on Twitch, I'll be giving away one of these for free this Friday! #VtuberUprising vgen.co/meginomagi

Never stop rigging (but im lazy so im quoting the post bec relevant LMAO) 2020 vs 2024 Both art and rig done by me :D #Live2D #Live2DShowcase

This video offers a great explanation of the advantages of using the curve parameter settings in #NizimaLive! ❤️ (If you don't speak japanese, you can turn on the subtitles and use YT's automatic translation, they are still quite clear) #Live2D www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISVW...

Body angles ✨ #Live2D #WIP

Today's opinion nobody asked for: I think all 2D VTuber model artists should watch a few Live2D rigging videos to understand why layers need to be separated the way they do
