I used Headshot plugin in CC4 to get started with the look of my character using an image from generated photos.
After just adjustments with morphs and altering the coloring of the character texture to match the skin tone I'm looking for.
Once I transferred the character into Marvelous Designer I created her outfit based on a rough sketch I drew up. Once I was sure on the design I used MDs Retopology Tools to create a lower poly version that I'll be able to rig an animate properly.
In Blender I merged any verts that weren't properly welded and adjusted the UVs to accommodate texturing. I also add a level of thickness to the clothes in order for it to not look paper thin.
In substance Painter I textured her outfit to give it the right look I wanted to go with. With the texture done I can now bring it back into character creator to finalize the character.
Once I added the character back to cc4 I gave the character the curly ponytail i picked up from the reallusion store and I also give the character viking shoes that were created by Slayerazazel in the Viking fantasy bundle from Reallusion store.
