I’m proud to share my latest digital art project—a fan-made 3D character inspired by the late, legendary Aaliyah, created using Character Creator 3 (v3.4+). This project serves as both a technical challenge and a heartfelt tribute to one of music's most influential artists.

Aaliyah Dana Haughton was more than just a singer—she was an icon of the late ‘90s and early 2000s. Her smooth vocals, groundbreaking style, and unmistakable presence shaped an era. This project aims to capture that essence in digital form.

🔧 Project Specs

  • Software: Character Creator 3 (compatible with version 3.4+)

  • File Format: .ccProject

  • Base Mesh: Custom-sculpted CC3+ character

  • Hair & Styling: Based on her signature sleek look, with iconic early 2000s fashion influences

  • Expression-ready: Includes facial morphs and rigged for animation

  • Optimized for: iClone, Unreal Engine, Unity, and real-time rendering pipelines

🧵 The Process

This project involved detailed sculpting and texture work to match Aaliyah’s features—from her smooth skin tone to her piercing eyes and relaxed posture. I took care to replicate key elements of her look, including her signature side-part hairstyle and understated, sleek fashion.

Character Creator’s tools allowed for intricate control over facial expressions and body morphs, making the model both true to Aaliyah’s likeness and functional for animation or cinematics.

📁 What You Get

  • .ccProject file (for CC 3.4+)

  • High-resolution textures

  • Facial and body rigged character

  • Custom hair and outfit modeled in her signature style

This model is perfect for tribute scenes, virtual performances, or as a base for music video-inspired fan content.

Note: This is a fan-made digital tribute. All rights to the likeness and legacy of Aaliyah belong to her estate and original creators.
