>>558723041
You don't have a deltoid. It's supposed to bulge out and in. You need an extra loop cut. I don't know how to fix what you have there because it's nonstandard and has weird tris. Just start over. Literally pick a premade mesh like the free blender one, and just cut and extrude your clothes out of it. Why the fuck do you have to make this so difficult for yourself, retard?
>>
>>558723709
So it’s less a matter of pattern than it is a matter of how the vertices are arranged.
Also if you must know, the tris are more meant to prevent me from having to do a whole new loop and thus wasting polys for minor details.
>>
>>558721840
>Where are all these talented devs and studios coming from!
AI took over the corporate jobs and that generated an influx of people trying to make it into the game industry.
>>
>>558724082
It's a matter of how the edges and loops flow because the topology needs to make sense for the entire range of motion of the joint.
>>
>>558724372
So it’s basically about “Drawing” consistent lines?
I guess I just think “Everything needs to be connected.”
Like, if I drew a more “Accurate” shoulder shape with the knife tool, I feel like it’d look weird
Also I feel like a “Bulging” shoulder would make it harder to turn up, no?

Why do you insist on making this so hard for yourself?
You are not being creative.
You are not being original.
You are being retarded.

Every human body has the same very specific muscles and bones that create very specific shapes and forms. Every human (i.e. anyone who might eventually play your game) has spent their entire life looking at human bodies, making them incredibly good at detecting when something is "off" when a retarded artist depicts incorrect anatomy.

Hey, man, for your sake, stop arguing with him. He's actually giving good advice as far as I can surmise but since you're just starting it's ok to do half measures. It's alright if your model doesn't animate or texture paint perfectly. As long as you make progress all is well.

Lil bro go download the human base mesh bundle from the blender website and use that. This is a solved problem.

Then go do a donut tutorial and gain some basic familiarity with the tools. Then a few years down the line after a few thousand hours of practice try modeling a human from scratch. The human body is not a beginner-friendly modeling project.

I saw Eric Barone at a Stardew concert in Soho today. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and show him my game or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued to look for my seat, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I went to get a snack during intermission I saw him trying to walk backstage with like fifteen chocolate bars in his hands without paying. The black girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Mr. Barone, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any delightful infetterwnce,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
