To create an Original Character (OC) in MiniMuses, open the customization menu, select a base skin tone to establish your primary color palette, apply outfits from base layers to outer accessories, and use facial sliders to align expression details with your character's mood.

Accessory Layering Order

Layering items in the correct order prevents clipping and ensures accessories fit naturally on the character model.

  1. Set the Skin Tone: Choose a base skin tone in the customization menu to anchor all subsequent clothing and accessory colors.
  2. Apply Base Clothing: Equip inner clothing layers such as shirts, pants, or fitted suits.
  3. Add Outerwear: Place coats, capes, or jackets over the base garments. Pair heavy or oversized outerwear with fitted base clothes to keep the character silhouette balanced.
  4. Attach Accessories: Layer glasses, hair clips, or handheld items on top of clothing and hair.
  5. Adjust Scale and Position: Open the item sub-menu to adjust rotation and scaling sliders if an accessory clips into the model or appears floating.

Facial Feature and Color Coordination

Facial features establish your OC's personality, while color palette coordination keeps the design readable in studio mode scenes.

  • Color Pickers: Use the color picker to sync hues across hair, clothing, and accessories. Stick to a defined palette—such as pastels, monochromatic tones, or complementary colors—and avoid bright neon combinations unless designing a specific chaotic or cyber theme.
  • Eye Shape Selection: Select narrow or sharp eye shapes to convey confidence, or wider, rounded eyes for approachable characters.
  • Eyebrow Placement: Adjust eyebrow angle and height sliders to alter the intensity of an expression without distorting the eye or mouth models.
  • Expression Testing: Open the expression editor to verify that facial features look natural across multiple emotional states before finalizing the character.

Scene Readability and Preset Management

When designing characters for video projects or studio composition, keep asset complexity balanced so the character remains readable from a distance.
