Let's see how culling works! Culling allows us to change the texture when we flip the mesh! In this example we use it to reveal another color 💜

Add eye depth to your head turns!
It can be achieved a few different ways! In this example I use the eye mesh to pull the pupil inward.
Pull the highlights forward a little to imitate the shape of the eyeball!

💫Live2D/VTubeStudio Tip
If you make an animation for something like a transition into another outfit, make sure to select 'Stop on last frame' in VTubeStudio!

How to make an editable rotating circle!
If we use a rotation deformer then any warp deformers above that rotation will only affect the rotation deformer rather than the mesh 🧐

So I only just started using this myself but... adding audio to the animator!
It's a simple drag and drop into the animator timeline and it'll make it's own track. It needs to be a wav file!
#Live2D
#live2dtutorial
#CutieRigs
I think the biggest advice I have for beginner riggers is that you shouldn't focus on adding 1000s of toggles and such
Focus on the face! It's really the focal point of vtuber models 🧐
You can make expressive faces regardless of how complex the model is! 👏

💫Live2D Tip
Can't use a warp above a rotation deformer to manipulate the art mesh?
You can merge the rotation down into a warp easily!
(It's helpful in certain uses!)

Just make sure to delete the toggle parameters after you're done setting up!

Duplicate the face layer to use as an inverted mask to imitate draw order changes!
