Customise
Character mode
Customise Body, Eyes, Mouth, Nails, Lashes & Brows, Skin and Parts, and save looks to the Library.
Character mode is where you change how the character looks.
Open it
- Choose View > Character (Cmd+2).
- Or press Open in Character from the Look summary in Modify.
The left list has seven features. Select one and the viewport frames it. Frame and Full body move the camera. The right panel shows a gallery of presets, the feature’s controls and Save look.

Body
Each section header has Randomise, Reset and Lock. Randomise advances a seed, so you can repeat a result.

Skin is a stack of layers. Each layer has visibility, solo, order, opacity, blend and a mask. Use Add layer to open the tile grid. Tattoos are layers of the Tattoo kind. Paint and stamp layers are placed on the mesh in the viewport with the Paint tool (B).
Switching skin type keeps your layer stack.

- Adjust controls such as Length, Taper, Curve, Curl and Thickness.
- Press Save to Library to reuse it.

Export notes
Realistic, Creature and Hard surface skin are fully in the exported maps. Stylised writes the painted look into the colour map. Toon writes the flat colour and face marks only. The cel shading is described in the export manifest for a toon shader. See Other formats and Targets.
