How I Make Stylized Characters in Blender and UE5

This is another video in my ongoing series on how to create vtubers in Blender and Unreal. In this episode we discuss style - how I concieve of my characters, how I UV map, texture them, as well as how I modify normals. All of this would apply for any animated or game engine project.
Also, this was originally live on a new set up. Sorry for the bad audio and sync
