As a freelance VTuber artist and rigger, I design and rig custom Live2D avatars for streamers, content creators, and online personalities. My work covers the full pipeline from character concept and clean, rig-ready artwork to expressive Live2D setup with natural movement, physics, and facial expressions. I build models optimized for VTube Studio and similar platforms, focusing on smooth performance and reliability for daily streaming use. I also take on rigging-only projects for clients who already have finished artwork, as well as fixes and improvements to existing models. Over 3+ years, I've worked closely with clients to translate their vision and personality into a character that feels authentic to their brand prioritizing clear communication, realistic turnaround times, and consistent quality from first sketch to final rig.

I help streamers and content creators bring their on-screen persona to life through custom Live2D VTuber models. My role spans the full process designing rig-ready character art, then building smooth, expressive rigs with natural physics and a full range of facial expressions. Every model I deliver is built for real-world streaming use, tested for stability on platforms like VTube Studio so clients can go live with confidence from day one. Beyond full builds, I regularly take on rigging for existing artwork and troubleshoot or upgrade older models that need better performance. Across 3+ years freelancing in this space, the throughline has been listening closely to what a client's character needs to feel like them then delivering it with dependable timelines and a finished product that's ready to perform, not just look good in a screenshot.
