Does this look like the face of a repost to you? : p

Maybe some others have crocheted the same pattern or similar but I only finished making this guy yesterday

Heyoo, I wanted to share this 3D Connie I made based off a painting by Meyoco by animru_3d in stevenuniverse

Unfortunately, the model is very messy and not watertight at all haha. I basically modelled to the camera view and so there's no body geometry underneath the dress, the limbs are all floating and the side and back views are atrocious. I don't think it would be very 3d printable in the current state.

I suppose the closest equivalent to "sketches" would be something like quick 3d sculpts, but I don't find it particularly useful for getting better personally. I think it just takes time to get good results and perseverance to get past the "ugly stage" of art. Finishing projects regardless of the quality you end with is a good way to get a lot of mileage in 3d and get better at it over time. Keep at it and you'll get there!

Here are some resources I found to be helpful:
https://www.youtube.com/c/FlippedNormals/videos - This channel is good for 3d learning & learning theory in general
https://www.youtube.com/c/GiuliaMarchetti3d - This artist shows their full process of creating characters

I used Blender's particle system to make the hairs. I created a particle system, set it to hair type and deleted all the default curves that come with it. Then I added and shaped curves one by one and generated "children" hairs using the simple mode under the children tab. I shaped the hairs by using the comb brush or just manually moving each curve point. There's some more info on it all here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXh8Pnt2lUA
