I’m not too proud of them, but I’ve added legs to my character model. I must say, I don’t like how small of an area that shoes/feet use for UV mapping; You pretty much have to stretch the shoe texture across the top of the foot, and it’s sort of ugly, which you can see in these screenshots:
Oh, and here’s how the whole model looks at the moment!
I am working on to get in to the ugc program also working on making ugc’s, maybe also talent hub as well.
Toji’s Inverted Spear of Heaven textured using Blender. Only thing left to do is baking and exporting
Update: I’ve completed this character model! It was tweaked somewhat based on feedback, and has been imported into Roblox Studio. You can look at it here.
My custom character is still being worked on. Though its torso needs some work, the arms and legs look good enough. Take a look at this screenshot, now with more clothes textures! (Ignore the blue text, as this picture was edited for use in a blog post.)
If this character’s joints look odd, it’s due to how perfectly round they are. While this means the seams will always be visible, this gives bent elbows and knees a very smooth look, which even Roblox couldn’t pull off with their R15 character models!

the arms are place a bit high and they dont have that curved shoulder so it looks like the arms are kind of disconnected. They are also completely straight down which makes it look like the character is kinda squeezing themselves into some gap or something. The legs also have similar issues as in they look too “stick”-y and doesn’t really connect to the body well (maybe make the top of the legs slightly larger or something)
tl: dr the arms and legs doesn’t connect to the body in a natural way
Yeah, they probably are positioned slightly too high. I designed them like this to avoid the weird “flat backside” oddity of Roblox’s girl arms, which are completely flat when they’re rotated in animations, which makes them look weird in a different way than my arms.
Yeah, they are, but I did that for two reasons:
I’ve remade the lower torso part, so I figured I should try making the upper legs wider like you suggested and…
…yeah, they look better like this!
I know what you mean. The segmented arms and legs have obvious indents where the parts meet, which does make their body look like it’s shriveling up, almost turning skeletal. I’m not sure what I could try to improve the transitions, because at the moment, each part is rounded off, with perfectly sized half-sphere ends, which let the knees bend super smoothly.
This is partially possible because of Blender’s “subdivision surface” modifier, which made it so much easier to shape all of the body part meshes, but it also makes it harder to make areas of meshes use more specific shapes. I guess I could try adding an extra edge ring around the joints on both parts, and see if that hides the “dip” between parts.
I personally think it looks slightly bad, but not as bad as the torso when the upper torso bends… (The hands were hidden to make the upper torso part easier to see.)
also the shoulders are too broad, if the person in the picture is a woman.
hands are a little big compared to legs
the curve is good and realistic, the torso needs to be a little shorter
All of those are good points, especially if I was making a more realistically proportioned character. My character model has its unusually large hands and width so it’s compatible with a character using the girl bundle with the woman torso.
Though I’m thinking of releasing it as a resource, it’s meant to be a drop-in replacement for the character parts that I usually use for my avatar and dummy NPCs. In my experience, I use the HumanoidDescription to make characters taller and thinner (slender proportions), so those modifications at runtime should improve some things about this model’s proportions (though it won’t fix the large hands).
EDIT: My character’s feet are the exception to this, though. They aren’t sized similarly to their inspiration, the Girl Legs. This was done because foot parts have terrible UV mapping (due to how little space Roblox dedicates to them in the internal maps), so I made them thinner, so they’re closer to bare feet, which I could weld shoe models to during gameplay.
I should make a version of my character model that uses the “correct” size shoes, for anyone that would want to use it with the average classic clothing textures.

After making some edits to its lower torso and hand parts, I decided that my custom character was ready for importing into Roblox Studio! I made sure that all UV maps were correct (and even flipped the left arm and leg’s mappings so they’re consistent with the right ones, something a couple of Roblox’s official bundles didn’t do), then imported all 15 parts into the studio.
After all of that work, seeing the character model floating above my baseplate feels like my reward for completing this task. Check it out for yourself:
Isn’t it beautiful, in some ways?
Anyways, it isn’t actually finished yet. The last step is to add all of the standard R15 joint attachments to all of the body parts. I didn’t use Roblox’s intended avatar importing feature because I want to ensure that all of them are placed precisely where they need to be. Once that’s done, I’ll write one final post about my character model, probably showcasing classic clothing and how it maps to it as a whole.
