Help for making characters for visual novel

[JustAnotherHuman7]

Hi, I'm planning to make my first VN. I have practically zero programming skills, so I'm using TyranoBuilder, which seemed to be the most simple VN Maker software for beginners, since Renpy has a bit of coding to do, not to mention Visual Novel Maker.

My question is this, what is the best software for creating characters? I had considered using Custom Order Maid 3D2, but the problem with COM3D2 is that I couldn't create the male character. COM3D2, were it not for the fact that it does not allow me to create the male character, would have been perfect because it does not require drawing skills and I really like the style of the characters of COM3D2. Are there better alternatives that don't need a college course to learn how to use them?

The two biggest ones people use are Daz3D and Honey Select 1/2.
Daz3D has the bigger learning curve and might require a bit of a monetary investment, but arguably it's the art style most people on here prefer(next to hand drawn).
Other games that I've seen used, but are probably less liked are Koikatsu, The Sims 4 and Skyrim/Fallout 4.

I checked various software and finally decided not to do the male character. DAZ3D has, as you said, a learning curve that I think is excessive for someone who is making their first project. As for Honey Select, I don't really appreciate how the male character looks, I've already tried. I will make only the female characters with COM3D2.

it's all depend on your taste of a style that you want to use

do you prefer blender, daz, Koikatsu, illusion, vam, Sims 4, Skyrim/Fallout 4 or hand drawn like summertime saga

everything have a learning curve

even TyranoBuilder have a learning curve as well like scripting and coding

Never said that there's something that has not a learning curve.

Never said that TyranoBuilder does not have a learning curve, but it is easier than Ren'py, since with Ren'py you have to code practically everything, with TyranoBuilder you code much less.

Like I said in both messages before, I like COM3D2 very much, the female characters look very good, and like I said in the last message, I decided not to do the male character at the end.

Wait, so the game isn't gonna have any male characters?
