CLIP STUDIO: How To Import 3D Models Into Clip

[@mara8063]

“Leave the cube there” Anyone who’s used blender for years: *and I took that personally*

[@acrackedteacup2181]

Lol right? XD I was new to blender when making this video (and still am some how haha) so I am in the "The cube is life." stage haha.

[@Grakin]

The cube. Must. Always. Be. Deleted.

[@viheart]

If someone else is having trouble with bringing the FBX 6 model into the csp modeler export as FBX 7 in the T pose, bring it back into blender, scale it up and export it again as fbx, idk why but that's how I fixed it.

[@cowlickers3442]

So I did it like you said but I’m having a totally different issue. My model wont register at all even though It allows me to bring up the screen but when I click register it it does no appear in my material. Any advice. (This question also goes for the op of this video because I’m not sure how active they are)

[@sonnyboyd10]

Awesome. I just finished your tutorial and after 2 years it still works! 😁 Thankyou.

[@ringkvinna]

Thank you so much for creating this video! I'm new to CSP, only used Blender and Shapr previously. I'm so excited about being able to import my custom models to CSP now!

[@acrackedteacup2181]

Hello there! Thank you so much for commenting! I am glad to hear that it was able to help :) If you have any questions or need any help just let me know :) Clip is an amazing program.

[@TheRobertVFrazier]

Thanks for sharing this! I learned plenty. Your directions are clear and to the point. One thing I can answer for you: what faces and vertices are in a 3D model. A 3D model consists of a large number of 2D geometric shapes in 3D space. For most models, the vast majority of these 2D shapes are triangles. Some will be quadrilaterals, with the occasional pentagon, but mostly humble triangles. (Any 2D geometric shape can be defined as a set of triangles, and some 3D software programs use nothing but triangles.) These are the faces. Vertices are the points where the corners of the faces meet. The default cube has six faces and eight vertices, because a cube has six sides and eight corners. The more complex a model is, the more faces it will need. The more faces a model has, the more detail it can show, and the smoother it can be. But of course, more faces means bigger file size, and slower saving and loading times, and slower refresh times when you move the model around, because there's more math to do. Which is why you are correct in thinking that it's good to keep the number of faces as low as you can while still having an acceptable degree of smoothness and detail. Exactly what's acceptable depends on what you're trying to do with the model.

[@acrackedteacup2181]

Thank you so much! I am very glad that it could be of some assistance. Thank you so much for explaining this! You explained it perfectly where I could clearly understand and this helps so much. I kept watching blender tutorials that talked about the Faces and Vertices but they never said exactly what they were. ((I figured because most people would already know what they were. Unfortunately for me, I wasn't one of those people haha at least not until now :) .))

[@insertname1454]

Oh my God thank you, this video is so helpful now I can pose models in CPS not just in Blender for reference! Thank you!!

[@acrackedteacup2181]

I am so glad that it could help you! :) It took me forever to learn this so I hoped to help others short cut the learning process haha.

[@KingNailerzONeill]

If you get hard ops for blender you can press Q then sharpen and the quality of the decimated model becomes perfect. The smooth option just don’t work

[@issakagaladima685]

This was sooo helpful. Thank you so much. You made my day

[@zackx1]

Thank you for this, I been trying to figure this out for quite a while. keep up the good work.

[@chrisd.2355]

Mixamo doesn't let you download as FBX 6 anymore. It's now called 6.1 - which I think changed something because now that doesn't load into the clip studio modeler ;-;

[@mai2015]

Hi, I know this comment is old so you probs won't see this but did you ever find a solution? I've been scouting the internet for hours trying to find something that would work and I've come up short 😭

[@DeviousityAtGmail]

@@mai2015 I did this today and it worked.

[@falcongreens2570]

This great tutorial deserves better mike. 😇

[@StepanTrnka]

Thank you so much! I've been searching for this tute so long!!! I tried to skip the whole mixamo part and it works simply fine in Blender 3.0.0.

[@acrackedteacup2181]

Really?! I need to update my blender then! I'll check that. Thank you so much ^_^ I am excited.

[@StepanTrnka]

@@acrackedteacup2181 my fault. My character was rigged already. I've been using MakeHuman or something similar.

[@Aronmasonarts]

thanks for this it's opened up new options for me. I would also like to point out that people with poser can save figures as obj's from the program and use them in the same way.

[@acrackedteacup2181]

I am so glad to hear that it could help! Also, Thank you for the information about it working with Poser. I have been considering buying poser 12 but wasn't sure if it would work. ^_^. Thank you.

[@Aronmasonarts]

@@acrackedteacup2181 I have poser 10 and after flash stopped working (thanks to abobe) my menus dont work propally so i cannot use the program like i use to. I dont think this happends in the new one. but thanks to you i can use what i need in clip studio thank you. if you want to see my comic it's called Blunderland and is on comicfury (but not for young eyes!)

[@Tsuenica]

Can you do this same with any characters model into CSP? I just made model characters but turn out that it looks weird in CLP... I don't know what i did wrong...same thing with importing of character like sonic the hedgehog from sketchfab and it really look off and doesn't work...i don't know if you can make tutorial on these??

[@pharoahcaraboo9610]

ok, so, everything here worked great. EXCEPT for the bone part. even if i resize my model, it shows up as a tiny speck. the csp reference model is perfectly fine- normal sized. but my imported model is ridiculously tiny. it makes it kind of impossible to accurately pose it, especially since im trying to use a model of a complex robot character for reference and tracing, i keep getting bits and bobs stuck on each other. any help?

[@acrackedteacup2181]

I apologize for the late response life pulled me away from youtube for long time. I think I know what is going on, but first This post was 4 months ago so I should ask, did you find help yet? via other videos or google? If not I can fire mine up and look into it. I hope all is well with you and yours. Best regards A cracked Teacup.

The cube is 2 meters tall... That model was really scaled like crazy.

[@acrackedteacup2181]

2 meters, Thank you! It really was lol. It is crazy how big they are some times.

[@averyhamlin2446]

Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed and followed it to great success, with only one minor issue! And I can't even replicate the issue, I'm not sure what I did to fix it? But I couldn't select "Perform standard bone mapping", only "Create standard bone". If that happens to anyone reading this, it started working after I chose a different pose in Mixamo and downloaded the new file, so maybe give that a shot? Thank you again - I really appreciated the detail you went into with how to use the views and controls in the Modeler since they are both different from Blender and not immediately obvious.

I am so sorry for just now seeing this. work has had me busy so I didn't get to check it until now. Do you mean where you scan in a image you took, then have Clip change it into a manga style picture? or do you mean to scan it in, to be able to trace it?

Is it possible to change the transparency if the 3d model? Not the layer, but the character itself.

[@acrackedteacup2181]

I apologize for the late response life pulled me away from youtube for long while. I wanted to see if you received an answer to your question through other means? I personally do not know how to make it transparent but if you have not found an answer yet I can look into it for sure.

What is the point of all this? This is a lot of work to make a 3d character and import it... Clip studio already provides free male and female models to use from the start?

[@kego_uwu127]

If you are a 3D modeler, you can import into clip studio your own characters that you have made and be able to pose them as the default mannequins.
