Hi, I’m CG Designer wogli. After graduating college, I worked as a generalist and director at an animation studio, and I now design CG on a freelancing basis, mainly using 3ds Max, Blender, and After Effects.
The aim of this class is to share my typical modeling process through demonstrations, specifically focusing on the basics of using Blender and the stages of modeling, rigging, posing, and compositing.
I hope it provides you with knowledge about cel-shaded modeling and helps you fall in love with CG design.

Interview with
CG Designer wogli
Question.01
What is the biggest challenge faced by learners studying this field, and how can this class help overcome it?
I believe many people ask themselves questions like “How can I achieve a more hand-drawn look?” and “What should I do to make my work look nicely exaggerated?” when they model cel-shaded style characters, which is why I’ll explain things to note when making cel-shaded characters and the overall flow of modeling. This class is also ideal for beginners as it teaches you the basics of modeling, how to create cel-shaded models, and ways to give a more charming look to your model.
Question.02
What led you to start studying CG design?
The joy I felt when I animated my very first model, which I still remember vividly, led me to study CG. Learning something new and producing output using it makes me happy, and that’s the reason I continue to study to this day.
Question.03
What was the challenge you faced as a self-studying learner, and what effort did you put in to overcome it?
I once found myself in a slump because I kept creating models that looked all similar, without being able to achieve the hand-drawn look I wanted. To overcome this, I tried drawing models myself and also studied anatomy and line art, which allowed me to clarify my uncertainties and realize the importance of studying basics.
Question.04
What do you consider the most important point in creating CG design?
I pay particular attention to the contrast and proportions of characters. When it comes to cel-shaded models, people are likely to focus on their parts and symbols, and even if you’ve finished making them, they often don’t look as stylish or harmonious as you want. That’s why I think more about how to improve their quality as 3D models than obsessing about making them look more 2D.
