KUTATA
Live2D Modeler


Hello! My name is Kutata.
I'm the creator of Potion Maker,
one of the first mobile games to use Live2D
in Korea's gaming industry
with over 4 million downloads.

I won the official Live2D competition
Creative Awards 2015: Grand Prix,
and participated in the translation of Live2D into Korean.
Currently, I’m working as a VTuber-character designer.

Based on my practical work experience
in 3D character modeling and 2D illustration,
I will share all of my tips & tricks
to achieving the best results
by working on your illustrations with Live2D.

Interview with
Live2D Modeler Kutata

Background images
Question.01
What do you consider to be your strengths?


I've used Live 2D since its earliest days and worked in the 2D illustration and 3D modeling industry for a long time. I think the most important thing when creating motion in Live2D is understanding what makes something 3D. It requires an artistic sense that allows you to ensure that the character and its facial expressions look beautiful from all angles. This is why I will explain not only how to use the tools but also the approach you need in order to design a high-quality model.
Question.02
What are the purpose and key points of this class?


I want to make the entire process of VTuber modeling interesting to beginners who are completely new to Live2D. I also want to teach them exactly what they need to focus on to create a high-quality model.
Question.03
What would be the most important takeaway from your class?


By the time you finish this class, you’ll be able to create your own VTuber character with natural movements. You'll also acquire skills for quick & efficient modeling by setting a clear goal and focusing on improving quality.
