MakeHuman Community

The MakeHuman Community, established in November 2018, is a dedicated group of volunteers supporting the open-source MakeHuman project. They provide invaluable resources for users, including video tutorials, plugins, and active discussion forums—all completely free from advertising. This commitment to an ad-free experience is a key differentiator in the online tutorial space. While largely volunteer-run, the growing community, now boasting 259 total members and 32 paid patrons, has necessitated paid server hosting to maintain the service. Their current modest Patreon earnings, estimated between $66 and $330 monthly, directly support server costs and ongoing development efforts. The community's success is a testament to the dedication of its volunteers and the strong demand for comprehensive support within the MakeHuman user base. Their significant contribution highlights the power of collaborative, open-source communities in fostering creativity and innovation within the digital arts.
