    Hello everyone this is my Lick and Tricks with Harlequin topic where i shown how to made real manga characters with hm3.

    First tutorial is the head.

    Both Male and Female

    1. Use two standard female head shape.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_1.png

    2. Choose out two standart face (for example a male and female) why we do this because that helps for find the perfect size for our custom face items.

    3. Color all skin item with the same.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_3.png

    4. I tell a lot of time insignias my best best friends. Choose the half circle insignias and transparent the color of the 2 and the line color.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_4.png

    5. Zoom for the heads. Easier to find the perfect scale of the items.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_5.png

    6. To use “the example faces lines” use the insignias (half circle, circle, rectangle, triangle) and draw an eye shape but a little bit bigger to seen like an Manga eyes (male eyes are little and ticker, female eyes are bigger)
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_6.png

    7. Choose the circle insignia with all color (second is the brightest) to make the eyeball.

    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_7.png

    8. Also use the circle insignias (only color 1 is active) choose the white color to made the inner eyes (sorry i don’t know the english name)

    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_8.png

    9. So give more feminim style for our female manga character so use triangle insignias to make her eyeleash.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_9.png

    10. Use also the circle insignias (now black color) to make the eyepieces.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_10.png

    11. Cicrle insignias (white) to give reflection for the eyes.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_11.png

    12. Give eyebrow for our characters. (everyone use the standard or use insignias no differency)
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_12.png

    13. Draw a nose with insignias (use the shape of the face or try out something different shape or use standard nose item).
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_13.png

    14. Draw the mouth (like the nose you draw your own or use standard items.)
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_14.png

    15. Delete for the standard faces and you made your own HM3 manga face.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick_and_Tricks_15.png

    I know first not an easy to do this, but this is not an hard thing maybe this procedure not more than 10 min, but you have the feeling what you use is your own.

    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_4.png
    4. I give more cropped feeling of the hair, and give straight for the end of the hair.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_5.png
    5. I finish and cover the plain place to not seen the skin.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_6.png
    6. Coloring the hair.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_7.png
    7. I use straigt hair to titivation more the hair and the character.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_8.png

    Example 2. – ELEGANT

    8. Delete most of the hair what we give for the character and only left the two in the top of the head. And change color.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_9.png
    9. Use the straight hair to cover the eyebrows and a little the eyes.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_10.png
    10. Use more striaght hair to made the character hair medium long, in the sides we give little transformated to made the hair more lively
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_11.png

    Example 3. – REBEL

    11. Delete down that hairs what we use to cover the eyebrows and the eyes. change the hair color, and the eye color
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_12.png
    12. Choose that hair in the Zombie section (now i very favourite this hair, very usefull) And only use that to give the hair more manga feeling.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_13.png

    Example 4. – Elfie

    13. Delete down all hair only what we use in 8. Step. Change hair color, eye color, and Ears. Now we made an elf.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_14.png
    14. I don’t wrote down what i do. I use a lot of hair type (straight, wavy, cropped, etc) But the hair is very elfish
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/01/Lick-and-Trick2_15.png

    A lot of good hair item in HM3. Don’t fear to combine, not a lot of time, but the result is very good.

    5. Giva a head, to seen to good of the body parts scales.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose5.PNG

    6. Use head part to made our female thights. (I usually use heads to made the legs more prefer than the original leg parts.)
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose6.PNG

    7. Use also the head parts to made calfs. (in the picture seen to use bigger size than the (200×200) everyone give the size manually)
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose7.PNG

    8. Give foots to see how works the body proportion.

    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose10.PNG

    11. Use the third breast in the body section to made the bottom part of the character.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose11.PNG

    12. Also use that part to make the breast part for the character and move out the shoulders a little.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose12.PNG

    13. Use insignais to cover the shoulder and the leg parts.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose13.PNG

    14. Layer down the insignia what we use the shoulder, and coloring full white the insignias on the legs.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/02/Lick-and-tricks-Pose14.PNG

    I had a bit of a problem with the text that you posted Harlequin. It had a load of /tab and /par stuff at the start and end of the lines, so I went through and removed them and it worked. It might just have been my computer, but I’ll post the edited text incase it happened to anyone else, if that’s alright with you.

    Thanks for posting these tips! Very helpful. I would have never thought to use body parts for other than what they are. I was really impressed at the way you used head parts to make legs!

    1. Rubber Domina – aka Superheroine in latex http://www.heromachine.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif

    1. First i use this sample character for show the steps.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth.png

    2. I change the color of the body for black the outline is darker grey.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth1.png

    3. I use a second upper body with skin colors.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth2.png

    4. I use a circle insignia what i drop in the upperbody and the head.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth3.png

    5. I masked the skin color upperbody for the insignia.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth4.png

    6. I give a slide fastener to the upper body.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth5.png

    7. I give another slide fastener to the stomach and the neck part.
    http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/legacy/forum-image-uploads/tarkabarka/2013/03/Lick-and-tricks-Cloth6.png

    8. I use this shoulder parts to hide the neck slide fasterners (and looking cool with a rubber cloth.)
