Meltin_01 is a virtual character created to represent a Vtuber using an animated avatar to interact with an audience.
Originally developed in Vroid Studio, the character evolved through multiple versions over three years to reach its current form.
The design is inspired by anime and the Vtuber scene, including references such as Ai Ohto, Zero Two, Snuffy and Nyanners.
It is my first true original character and allowed me to deeply explore character design and improve my drawing skills.
Several expressions (happy, angry, sad…) were defined in Vroid and can be triggered through camera tracking.
The integration of ARKit via Unity enables iPhone facial tracking for smoother and more detailed movements.
Meltin_01 is an evolving personal project combining character design, 3D, and immersive technologies.
