At Smeet, I designed up to 60 clothing items for avatars weekly, primarily focusing on crafting detailed, hand-painted textures. For outfits, I also designed dresses and skirts, which are highlighted here.
Smeet is a 3D social multiplayer game that allows players to connect and interact in a virtual world. For additional information about Smeet, visit the 3D Models Page.
Goals
The designs should emphasize flattering silhouettes that complement a variety of avatar body shapes, while also incorporating details like fabric texture, draping, and movement that enhance the overall visual experience.
Challenges
Designing skirts and dresses presents unique challenges due to their tendency to easily cause clipping issues, especially with legs. This makes it difficult to achieve clean rigging and weight painting, which are essential for natural movement and appearance within the game.
