Complete AI Character Workflow: Concept to Control Rig

In this video I walk you through my full AI character creation pipeline. We start by generating a character with AI, then convert that image into a 3D model, and finally rig it with a control rig so it's ready to pose and animate.
This is exactly the kind of workflow I love sharing because it cuts out the manual grind and gets you to results that actually look good.
Whether you're just getting into 3D or you've been at it for a while and want to streamline your character process, this one's for you.
