Roblox has become a popular platform for users to express their creativity by creating and selling their own unique user-generated content (UGC), including avatar accessories and faces. In this guide, I will walk You through the process of creating your own custom UGC face. Even if you have no prior experience in model creation, this beginner's guide will equip you with the necessary skills to create a custom UGC face using free applications like Blender and Paint.net.

Introduction

If you're interested in making some extra Robux by selling your own custom UGC face, this guide is for you. While most users may not have UGC access, there are still opportunities to sell your UGC to star creators or individuals in need of custom items. This guide will provide a step-by-step walkthrough of the process from start to finish, ensuring that even beginners can follow along and create their own custom UGC faces.

Understanding UGC and Custom Avatar Faces

User-generated content (UGC) refers to the content created by users of a platform or website rather than the platform itself. In the Context of Roblox, UGC allows users to create and sell their own accessories and faces for avatars. Custom avatar faces have gained popularity, with users uploading various designs and styles. While some faces may not be allowed to be recreated due to copyright or policy restrictions, classic heads and customizable heads are usually permissible.

Required Applications: Blender and Paint.net

To create your own custom UGC face, you will need two free applications: Blender and Paint.net. Blender is a powerful tool for creating models and meshes, while Paint.net serves as a free alternative to Photoshop for creating textures. You can download the latest version of Blender from their website, and Paint.net can be downloaded for free as well.

Choosing an Avatar Face to Create

Before diving into the creation process, you must first decide what Type of avatar face you want to make. Whether it is a classic man or woman face or a customized blockhead, the choice is yours. Popular choices among users include the classic Roblox head, the man head, and the woman head. For this guide, we will be using the Roblox classic head as an example, but feel free to choose the face that best suits your preferences.

Obtaining the Avatar Head Mesh

To create your custom UGC face, you will need to obtain the mesh of the avatar head you have chosen. In this case, we will be using the Roblox classic head. To acquire the mesh, you will need to use the Better Robux plugin, which allows you to download meshes and textures for creating custom UGC faces. Install the Better Robux plugin if you haven't already, and then follow the instructions to download the head mesh in OBJ format.

Downloading the Roblox Avatar Dummy

In order to properly size and position your custom UGC face, it is useful to have a reference to base it on. By downloading the Roblox Avatar Dummy, which is a generic Roblox character mesh, you can use it as a guide to ensure that your face works seamlessly with normal Roblox characters. The Avatar Dummy can be downloaded in OBJ format using the Better Robux plugin.

Acquiring the Face Texture

To add a unique texture to your custom UGC face, you will need a face texture image. This image will determine the appearance of the face and can be created using Paint.net or other image editing software. You can either create your own face design or find a pre-made texture that matches your vision. Save the face texture as a PNG file for later use.

Importing the Mesh and Face into Blender

With the required assets in HAND, it's time to start the creation process in Blender. Open Blender and delete the default cube object. Import the Avatar Dummy mesh first by going to File > Import > OBJ and selecting the downloaded file. Next, import the head mesh by following the same steps and selecting the downloaded OBJ file. Use the drag and Scale tools to position and resize the head mesh to fit the Avatar Dummy.

Adjusting the Face Position and Scaling

To ensure that the custom UGC face fits properly with accessories and covers the original avatar head, you may need to make some adjustments. Use the UV editing or texture paint mode to select and adjust the face texture on the head mesh. You can move, scale, and rotate the texture to Align it correctly with the head mesh. Take Care to keep the face within the visible area indicated by the UV map GRID.

Creating the Face Texture in Paint.net

Open Paint.net and import the saved face texture image. Use the tools and brushes available in Paint.net to create your desired face design. You can draw or paint directly on the canvas to create a unique and visually appealing face texture. Take your time and experiment with different colors, Patterns, and styles to bring your custom UGC face to life.

Saving the Blender Project and Texture

After finalizing the position and look of your custom UGC face, save your progress in Blender by going to File > Save. This will allow you to Continue working on the project in the future if needed. Additionally, save the face texture created in Paint.net as a separate file. Make sure to save both files in a location that is easily accessible for future steps.

Importing the Mesh and Texture into Roblox Studio

To see how your custom UGC face looks on a Roblox character, you will need to import the mesh and texture into Roblox Studio. Open Roblox Studio and create a new place or open an existing one for testing purposes. Insert a MeshPart object and set its properties to the appropriate values. Import the head mesh by selecting the file in the properties menu. Import the face texture by selecting the file as well.

Positioning the Mesh on the Avatar

With the mesh and texture imported, it's time to position the custom UGC face on the avatar. Use the Move and Scale tools in Roblox Studio to adjust the position and size of the head mesh, ensuring that it covers the original head and fits with accessories. Take your time to position it correctly, making sure it aligns well with your avatar's features.

Converting the Mesh into an Accessory

To finalize your custom UGC face as an official accessory, you will need to convert the mesh into an accessory item. Use the Asset Creator plugin in Roblox Studio to guide you through the process. Choose the accessory type as a hat, since it works best for faces. Select the classic character type and follow the Prompts to complete the conversion process.

Uploading the Accessory onto the Roblox website

Once your custom UGC face is converted into an accessory, you can upload it onto the Roblox website. Navigate to the dashboard and upload the accessory file. Add a custom description and customize the listing to make it appealing to potential buyers. Once uploaded, wait for the approval process to be completed by Roblox.

Troubleshooting and Fine-tuning the Accessory

If you encounter any issues or inconsistencies with your custom UGC face during testing or uploading, it may be necessary to troubleshoot and fine-tune your accessory. Make adjustments in Blender to the mesh position, scale, or texture alignment if needed. Refine the face texture in Paint.net by making necessary edits or improvements. Repeat the process of importing and positioning the mesh in Roblox Studio until you achieve the desired result.

Testing and Using the Custom UGC Face

After successfully uploading and configuring your custom UGC face, you can test and use it in Roblox games. Spawn your avatar and equip the custom UGC face, either through the game's character customization menu or through your Avatar's page. Experiment with different games and environments to see how your face looks and interacts with other accessories and avatars.

Selling Your UGC Face and Engaging with Star Creators

If you are interested in selling your custom UGC face, there are various opportunities available. One option is to create a Twitter account and engage with star creators who often express interest in purchasing custom UGC items. Reach out to them and showcase your creations, and you might find potential buyers who are willing to pay for your work. Additionally, you can explore other avenues within the Roblox community to market and sell your custom UGC face.
