Geppetto through the eyes of a doll repainter

I originally had a job called a “repainter” to redraw doll faces. I'm famous for drawing on BTS dolls, and I also made doll costumes by knitting and sewing my own patterns.

▶ Creator YouTube

However, I first came across ZEPETO when I felt the limitations of materials called dolls and moved on to the 3D modeling field. For me, Geppetto was a new world. There were so many parts similar to doll customizations..! The items in ZEPETO were almost the same way I made clothes for dolls. Character retouching was easier than painstakingly drawing on a doll's face with only one thumb, and I was able to try a lot more variety of things. I also found it very attractive that YouTube video editing, which used to take days to weeks, can be done within a few hours. For me, in many ways I feel like I'm looking for a stage where I can expand and expand my existing skills more easilyIt was.

I was lucky enough to communicate with viewers around the world through a platform called YouTube before I became a ZEPETO creator, and as a handmade artist, I was able to explore how to create delicate results.

Special benefits for students!

1. Provide 3D modeling files

For those who have taken 80% or more of the class, Sodam Sam will share 3D item files created by himself. It can take a long time to reach 5,000 gems, which is the profit withdrawal standard with just a template item, so this is a special gift from Sodam Sam!

*After taking the class, you can download it with points.

2. Template guidelines file provided

ZEPETO items can be created in 3D. However, a template is a work of drawing on a flat surface. As a result, when I upload it to ZEPETO STUDIO, my picture deviates greatly from the position I expected, or it stretches strangely. To prevent this problem, we'll provide a guide area on which part of the template corresponds to where on the item.

3. Eye drawing process guide for each object

What is the most effective method for character retouching?

Just snow! It's about raising the details of the eye area. In particular, I can express a variety of feelings through my eyes. We have prepared various picture-specific course guides in consideration of the students' tastes.

4. Provision of image files by ratio for video production

To prevent parts from being cut or stretched when creating promotional videos, we provide proportional image files that meet the specifications. You can load it in CapCut when starting a project.

What to bring

1. Smartphone or iPad/Galaxy Tab

Please prepare a device with an internet connection so that you can install the mobile app ZEPETO.

2. stylus

Please prepare a stylus stylus in advance. (Apple Pencil, Galaxy S Pen, Salty Pencil, etc.) I like the best combination of iPad and Apple Pencil, but it doesn't matter if you don't have one! As a result of testing with a mobile phone and an inexpensive stylus, there was no major hindrance to using it.

(1) 6mm magnetic stylus

A 6mm tip stylus is recommended when using a mobile phone. The palm detection function is not supported, but it wasn't too uncomfortable when using it on a mobile phone. I don't use the 3mm wide fine tip because of the severe delay. The photo shows a 2-way touch pen that costs 6,500 won, but I only use the 6mm pen attached to the cap when turned over. An eraser-shaped stylus attached to the tip of a writing ballpoint pen is also fine.

(2) Salty pencil

iPad, a type commonly referred to as a “salty pencil” that works with the iPhone For 2 to 30,000 won Products generally only work properly on iPads. (Palm detection prevention, tilting function, etc.) On the iPhone, the performance is similar to the low-end stylus above. Also, even if it says that it is general-purpose support including Android, the recognition rate was lower than that of the low-end products above when used on Galaxy phones, etc.

*We do not recommend DAX products because their recognition rate is very poor.

*Products with a transparent shield on the tip of the pen may scratch the LCD.
