Extensive deformation tools

Live2D Cubism creates dynamic expressions by applying deformation to the source illustration.
Multiple deformation tools are available for a wide range of cases. Select and combine deformation tools according to the application and purpose to perform modeling exactly as you imagine.

Deform Path

Deform Path

Deform Path is a tool for creating dynamic deformation such as movement of hair or opening and closing of the mouth. ArtMesh can be deformed along the curve of the Deform Path. The precise degree of deformation can be set, allowing you to freely apply deformation to any location and for any purpose.

Warp Deformer

Warp Deformer

Warp Deformer is a function used for deformation of a plane, used for purposes such as flapping of clothing. It is used to produce expressions that have a feeling of depth. You can set a parent-child relationship between Deformers and move them in sync. These parent-child settings can dramatically increase modeling efficiency.

Rotation Deformer

Rotation Deformer

Rotation Deformer is a function for expressing movement that rotates around a pivot point, such as when moving a neck or joint. In the same way as Warp Deformers, you can set parent-child relationships here also.

Photoshop Scripts

Photoshop Scripts

Two types of Adobe Photoshop scripts are provided to help you create PSD data for importing into Cubism Editor.
