To use, not very.
To create is is very complicated
>Can't you just use some pre-designed model?
I could, but part of what interest me about this hobby or whatever you want to call it, is the technology. So going through the process of making something myself from beginning to end, while difficult, is extremely interesting to me.
That said on a tech level I have far more interest in the 3d and motion capture side of things then learning to rig Live2D models. Which is why I am currently learning blender. I am using a VRoid model as the base for my first few designs though. So I at least have something to practice more advance stuff like facial rigging and the like. Also learning to get the capture software to play nice with my face. I have glasses and a beard so it configuring stuff is harder than it would be if I had a baby face and contacts.
