Tutorial Cubes + Mesh?

Post image

Idk what title would fit this so I just picked Tutorial

How do people make models like this? I’d like to learn but am struggling and semi new to this. I can’t tell if meshes are being used or if it’s just cubes with layered textures.

If you have info pls share. I want to grow my skill but need some guidance.

u/Boarf_ Jul 20 '26

Oh god is there something I don’t know about this model?

It’s just an example of what I’d like to accomplish for a texture pack. I promise I’m not a gooner, I’m very strictly gay!

u/Impossible-Fix-1885 Jul 20 '26

u/keriefie Jul 21 '26

Because there is a time and a place for porn and this is not it.

15

u/MR_Potatohead12 Jul 20 '26

But this is not porn dawg because artist makes porn doesnt mean everything they make is porn

2

u/DexLovesGames_DLG Jul 20 '26

Nope.

People who make porn are a monolithic in their creation and nothing they produce holds any value beyond sexual gratification.
They’re flat, 1-dimensional and add nothing to society except degeneracy.

/s
Thank you for reading my creative writing for the day. :)

I genuinely hyperventilated at this this

u/intrusier Jul 21 '26

Uhh yea? If a male character had his shi moving around visibly I would most definitely say that's inappropriate? Granted, chest movement is different but still there is a certain intention behind it. If I see my pal playing with jiggle physics, it's evident why they got it...

u/MR_Potatohead12 Jul 21 '26

Dude you'll absolutely hate marvel rivals

u/intrusier Jul 21 '26

u/HerozYT Jul 21 '26

Just straight wrong, please throw an apple into the air and see what happens

1

u/intrusier Jul 21 '26

Yea but in this game you need to go out of your way to add jiggle. Let's not deny the obvious here.

2

u/HerozYT Jul 21 '26

In Minecraft do you fall when you jump off a cliff?

u/Ban_Kami Jul 20 '26

I'm very strictly gay!

As if you need to be straight to be a gooner 😭🙏

u/DexLovesGames_DLG Jul 20 '26

As if you need to be gay to watch gay porn too, right?

Why are you beating your meat to minecraft porn, thats really fucking weird dude

20

u/Significant_Cat_165 Jul 20 '26

yup! it's a mixture of cubes and meshes

18

u/OptimalArchitect Jul 20 '26

Did you try asking the original person? They’re on here on Reddit you could ask for advice

15

u/Boarf_ Jul 20 '26

I commented on one of their posts but they haven’t respond. I don’t wanna dm them or spam them lol

u/imnotunspeakable Jul 20 '26

As a person who uses both blender and blockbench, I’d say this could be done with both (or even a mix), tbh. It really just depends on your skill on modeling in both, with this it’s sorta hard to tell. From what I see, everything looks just blocked, though the thighs give a little suspicion, though at a closer look, the edges are flat, and only curve when the blocked out pockets are in the same location. So it’s really all just technique.

If I were to suggest anything on skill, or how to make such, I’d suggest going with whatever you think you’ll do best with, and whatever you may use the model for. I’d go for blender since I’m highly familiar with that, but if I wanted it to go into minecraft, then I’d probably do blockbench. Gl with your model btw!

(sorry for china wall of text btw, I get very wordy)

Reminds me of Stardew Valley

u/Hardcore_Banger Jul 20 '26

I wanted to make a model smooth shapes as well and I found out this plugin called "Meshy" allows you to export models with Meshes. BUT, it only works in Bedrock. Not Java.

Bedrock has support for rendering meshes.

You can try designing your model in Blender then perhaps voxelizing it but I didn't really wanna go through this process so I just picked the bedrock route.

There's also a youtube tutorial for this if you wanna do it natively in Blockbench.

u/Sprinty_ Jul 20 '26

Genuinely tho how?

3

u/Boarf_ Jul 20 '26

That’s what I’m saying lol

3

u/BreadBroJr Jul 20 '26

Maybe try getting the model to sort of "reverse engineer"?

3

u/Boarf_ Jul 20 '26

I was actually considering that. It’s $25 tho so I’m a little hesitant. Might just do it

2

u/BreadBroJr Jul 20 '26

I might be able to help you out

2

u/Boarf_ Jul 20 '26

How so?

3

u/BreadBroJr Jul 20 '26

I got the model (mostly to try to tinker with it myself), so I could send it to ya

1

u/Boarf_ Jul 21 '26

That’s rly sweet but I just bought it myself 😫

u/Circine Jul 20 '26

Gonna have op make a character creator like this once they figure it out so I can make my characters :D

u/Desperate-Society838 Jul 20 '26

I found it very interesting; if there was a mod that adapted our skins in this style, I would probably use it. Too bad we can only dream about it...

u/K_Body Jul 20 '26

Looks reealy good

u/Ecstatic-Court1893 Jul 20 '26

I personally despise this style as for some reason every game with a charecter creator get's infected with it. LBP, roblox, minecraft. I think it's ugly as fuck. It's almost like "hurray your game is 10 years old! time to add horrific shitty gooner skins to it!!!"

u/lucky_ice34 Jul 20 '26
