Natalia Real-Time | Realistic 3D Character for EEVEE

Natalia Pro version here!

Natalia V3 EEVEE is a highly optimized 3D female model specifically designed for real-time rendering in Blender’s EEVEE engine. This version eliminates heavy subdivisions and sculpted details while maintaining high visual fidelity through baked normal maps from the high-resolution model. Ideal for artists and production studios looking for a lightweight yet realistic character for animation, rendering, and game projects.

Main Features:

1. Optimized Geometry & Performance

• 207,985 vertices and 297,346 triangles in total, making it highly efficient for real-time rendering.
• No subdivision modifiers required, though one level of subdivision can be applied for smoother geometry if needed.
• Completely optimized topology with no ngons or unnecessary tris, ensuring clean deformation.

2. High-Quality Textures & UVs

• 47 PBR textures at 4K resolution, covering Albedo, Roughness, Specular, Normal, and Alpha channels.
• All normal maps baked from the high-resolution sculpt to maintain the highest possible level of detail without heavy geometry.
• No displacement maps required, reducing performance load while maintaining realistic surface details.
• Optimized UDIM UV mapping for advanced texturing control.

3. Real-Time Ready Hair System

• Hair is created using hair cards instead of Blender’s particle system, ensuring excellent real-time performance in EEVEE.
• Carefully placed and designed to mimic the appearance of strand-based hair while maintaining efficiency.
• Optimized shading to maintain realistic reflections and depth without heavy computation.

4. Advanced Rigging & Controls

• Full Rig with Rigify and a custom facial control system, making animation easy and efficient.
• Phonemes controlled by intuitive sliders for precise lip-sync and character expressions.
• Shape keys with bone-driven corrective drivers ensure smooth and natural deformations.
• IK/FK switch for each limb, with a global toggle for seamless workflow.
• Rotation, movement, and scale limits applied to bones to prevent unwanted distortions or unrealistic movements.
• Organized bone layers panel for improved ease of posing and animation.

5. Materials & Shading

• Body materials divided into 5 sections: head, arms, body, legs, and nails, with baked Albedo, Roughness, Specular, and Normal maps.
• The head material controls all body materials, simplifying adjustments and ensuring consistency.
• Eyes: Albedo, Normal, and Subsurface Scattering Mask with a separate material for eye moisture.
• Eyelashes & Eyebrows: Modeled as fiber meshes with a dedicated shader (no textures required).
• Mouth: Albedo, Roughness, Specular, and Normal maps.
• Tear Duct: Alpha and Normal maps for realistic detailing.
• Clothing: Albedo, Roughness, and Normal maps, ensuring fabric realism without excessive computation.

6. Optimized for EEVEE

• Designed to work seamlessly in EEVEE, leveraging real-time lighting and shading optimizations.
• No heavy computational shaders, keeping performance high for smooth workflow and fast rendering.

Included Files:

• Blender (.blend) file with a fully rigged model, optimized shaders, and EEVEE-compatible hair system.
• 47 high-quality 4K textures, covering Albedo, Roughness, Specular, Normal, and Alpha channels.
• Instructions and usage tips to ensure an easy and efficient workflow.

Applications:

• Real-time animation and cinematics.
• Game development and interactive applications.
• Illustration and photorealistic rendering for advertising and design projects.
• Virtual productions, AR/VR environments, and metaverse applications.

Natalia V3 EEVEE is the perfect choice for artists looking for a high-quality, real-time 3D character with optimal performance. Whether you're working on a game, animation, or interactive project, this model delivers professional-grade visuals without the computational cost of high-poly assets.
