Wahh, I want to be a Vtuber, but I got no money.
I can't afford to pay someone. I don't even know how to draw.
Are there any free assets?
Yes, my dear Bobas, I've heard your cries for help.
And here I am coming to your rescue with all sorts of free assets.
Hey, Bobas, I'm Mari, and today
I'm going to show you how to find free vtuber assets.
That's right. Free.
You would be surprised
by how many free assets there are here on the Internet for your Vtuber
compared to last year when Vtubing first started to explode to now-
This is the perfect time to start
getting into Vtubing without needing to spend a lot of money.
So I wanted to make a quick video on how you can search your Free
Vtuber assets for your model.
If you want, you could literally type into Google and search free Vtuber assets
and take a look at what pops up.
And you can even look at the image section to see what the asset looks like.
But I personally don't recommend searching for assets this way,
since this isn't optimize and it's better to search on the most common platforms
where Vtuber artists post their assets, which are Twitter, booth,
Etsy, Pinterest, Instagram, deviant art, Facebook, Reddit and discord.
I personally prefer to find assets on both Twitter and booth,
since those have much more optimized search options.
But you need to know the right keywords, and most of it's in Japanese.
However, there are some English tags
that you can use, but if you're only using that, then
you're really narrowing your potential of finding some amazing assets like these.
So I'm going to show you some of the most common tags
that I have seen and use to find assets on both Twitter and Booth.
This took a lot of trial and error and many hours browsing to the Internet.
I'm also addicted to finding free assets
because I love supporting other artists as much as I can, if you couldn't tell.
So let's start with Twitter first. I actually use Twitter a lot now.
And from what I've noticed, these are the three most commonly used hashtags
when you're looking for free Vtuber assets.
Just going to vote for that right there.
I think that's a pretty interesting post.
I'm going to like that real quick.
Maybe re tweet that to look at the comments later since I'm going to forget.
OK, so all you have to do is take those hash tags
any one of them will do and then put it into this search bar
and then see what pops up.
You can take a look at the top part of the post to see
what is kind of the most popular and what everyone's been on the page about.
It's a little bit weird on how the likes are sorted through, since sometimes
you could get something that's more recent or it could be like a whole week ago.
It really just depends.
If you want, you can also tab over to the latest
to get like the absolute latest stuff that is getting posted, although sometimes
when you do that, you might get really irrelevant stuff like this.
This is actually how I sometimes find assets before anybody else.
Like, for example, this this got posted literally at four forty three am today.
And it's a really cute logo that you can use and it's free to use.
So sometimes on some post, people will include other links
to go to some file hosting site where they have all of their stuff or,
you know, other times
you can literally just click on the image and just save it as that.
It really just depends.
The most common ones that I've seen
are either to their booth or their ko-fi or sometimes just a direct download.
So with these hashtags, keep in mind this one means free asset,
which is why sometimes you might not find everything Vtuber related.
Like I said, there's a lot of just really random stuff on here.
Sometimes it just it just depends.
This hashtag can also be used for Vtuber assets, but sometimes you'll see
a lot of people just advertising their commissions in their artwork.
So they're letting you know that they're open for commissions pretty much.
This one, I think, is the most straightforward one,
although sometimes I do see commission ones on here as well.
People really just love to use hashtags inappropriately.
And it makes it a little frustrating when trying to sort things out.
But it's the price of the game.
You just have to keep scrolling until you find something that you like.
Now, let's take a look at Booth.
Booth is very similar to Etsy, but it's mainly used by Japanese artists.
So you can imagine that you'll find a whole variety of different artwork here
that's for sale.
And I know the interface is a little scary because of all the Japanese,
but all you got to do is just right click on here,
especially if using Chrome and translate to English.
And if you take a look at the left over here,
there's a search bar where you can type in all the different types of tags
that you want to search out for different Vtuber assets.
But be careful because some of those tags are a little bit too broad.
And it took me a while to kind of sift
through the more accurate and narrow version for vetiver assets.
So here are the three most common ones that I've found.
So this hashtag in particular means specifically Vtuber goods.
And there is quite a variety of stuff.
I mean, you got your legs right here.
You've got a whole swimsuit outfit that you can get some ice cream.
Actually, I really like the swimsuit set.
That's so cute. Oh, my gosh. That's so adorable.
Yes, I'm going to save that for later.
Now, this one is a little bit
more of a broad category because it just means virtual you.
And sometimes that means that they might be selling merchandise
of other Vtubers, per se.
But you can still find assets on here as well.
You just kind of have to sift through it a little bit.
And this tag is actually kind of cool because it's like the delivery service.
So you'll see a lot of graphics on here, such as streaming overlays, panels.
Sometimes you'll find music and just all sorts of
interesting background and fonts - just there's so much here that you can look at.
So Yeah, just take a look.
And honestly, if you want, you can sort of do popularity. What's the newest thing,
What's the lowest, which is, you know, usually free. So take a look.
This is actually how I find value for assets that no one else knows about
because they don't post it anywhere else except on Booth.
It really just depends.
I also made an account on here,
so that way I can use
the nice little favorite options so I can keep a whole list of things
that I it for later that I can just go back to. It's really convenient.
Now you have a bunch of free Vtuber assets to use,
and now you can also further customize your stream more.
What's cool about these assets is that a lot of the artists
are totally fine with the recolor in them as long as it's for personal use
and you don't claim it as your own and of course, give credit to the artist.
This is great to recolor any skin tones, to match your avatar
more accurately, since not every artist can accommodate for everyone.
Keep in mind that these assets take a lot of time and remember it's free.
So don't complain and try to out the artist
for their hard work to provide you free materials,
because most of the time you can just recolored to your liking.
And if you're lazy and don't want to do any of this work,
then I included a special discord channel in my server that you can join
where I have listed every single Vtuber asset, as I have found so far.
I hope this video gave you some new ideas and inspired you
to stylize your Vtuber for stream.
And on social media, if you like this video, then please give it a thumbs

All right. That's all for me. Take care. Bye, Bobas!
