VRoid Studio is a free character creator developed by Pixiv. It allows you to design fully rigged 3D characters with custom facial features, hairstyles, clothing, and more; no 3D modeling experience required.

For advanced customization—such as creating custom textures—you can use tools like Blender to further modify your characters.

Create a Custom Character

• Download and install VRoid Studio
• Design your character using the intuitive tools and presets
• Export your character as a VRM file. Make sure you:
