How to make a Custom VRChat Avatar QUICK EASY and FREE

How to make a custom VRChat avatar quick, easy, and free. I go through how to make an avatar with several free methods, as well as a few paid options in case you want to get something better. While you can get a good free avatar from ReadyPlayerMe or Tafi, sometimes making one in VRoid or buying one on Fiverr is just a better option to get exactly what you want. That said, I'm pretty satisfied with my Tafi avatar.

As someone who animates in blender, if you don’t have any experience with blender and/or modeling, don’t use this option unless you are willing to take on a huge challenge! I can do a lot of basic modeling in blender, but nothing like a vrchat model, and I’ve been using blender for years now. Not to discourage anyone, I’m just warning you, if you just want a free easy model, don’t chose this. If you’re wanting a crazy model and are willing to put effort into it, then of course give blender a go!

a few years ago when I played this game I went around a few furry worlds asking furries about their avatars. Some made the avatars themselves but A LOT of them paid 500-2k for their random furry eye-destroying avatar and it just blew my mind. So I busted out laughing when you showed that AD for $300

I LOVE your teaching style. Chill, but focused. You anticipate my questions in my head and answer them (the whole “how to import” little detour - you know and think through and EXPLAIN what’s going on and why it matters. The music, your voice, pacing. And entertaining. 🙏❤️

Two things! First, I'd like to see what other Fiverr people are making, always fun. Second, I have worked quite a bit at rigging skeletons and weight painting in Blender and would love to help, or at least give you some tips!

Going to try both Tafi and Ready Player Me. Both seem interesting. I've used Blender before but some texturing is the death of me. I also have never rigged at either and everyone I've talked to has said rigging is a nightmare.

I'm currently working on the video comparing various tiers of Fiverr avatars. I have 2 of the avatars done already, but the most expensive option is taking much longer than expected to get done. I'll post the video here in the pinned comment when it's done! It will be a video comparing $15 vs $60 vs $150 avatars.

[JoyWSnow]

You can buy an avatar base and then customize it in Unity as well. Be aware it is a huge learning curve!

Panda: Vroid is hard
Me: *using for the first time before watching this vid* It's easy and fun!

Fivvr video is needed big time. Fivvr is a mine field of experts, amatures, incompetents, and scammers. Many of the low price people are just ripping avatars others have made and reselling them. If the artists doesn't tell you they plan to keep a copy of your avatar for in game testing or self promotion don't buy anything from them. If they don't care enough to test or showcase what they made, they aren't going care enough to make anything thats good enough to worth your money.

You should definitely make a fiver video

Unfortunately the Tafi avatar creator is no longer available...

[taranjk]

I started doing blender half a year ago and now I can make simple avatars in a day.

Vroid is my favorite even if I don't use my characters in vrchat I just enjoy spending the time and seeing what I can produce with the application

[Yipper]

3:53 I made one, and then walked my friend through how to do it too. We both have Vroid avatars now.

[althrash]

Already got my avatar in game within a few minutes of waiting. Great video!!

[TheWidFlwer]

I'm gonna try using VRoid myself, seems like a nightmare but it might be fun haha

[_PannieCake_]

VRoid is very hard to import since it only imports as PC (Quest avatars can be made, but the textures get really messed up) Also, the face tends to break on them.

[KUSUCLA]

BTW.. vroid avatars are also used for something calld virtual droid 2 which is a vrchat game for mobile

PHIA brought me here. She's great!! Awesome shout out.

Funny thing about blender, not many people knows how easy it is to model with it, I kind of got surprised at how fast i got used to it, and how ridiculous custom model prices are too.
