1)find a base (link)
2) pose you're character on top of it how you want.
3) use @ramen.fyi meddletools to export the prop and your character.(join the discord to learn how to use)
4) in blender import them using meddletools.
5)make sure all is how you want.. render.

Maybe a better way than this but repost to help with getting your character in blender. Meddletools has had plenty of updates to them and we also have Aetherblend now. Which allows for easier posing in blender (it's a thread)

(Meddletools will export the pose as well. It's really a fantastic plug-in. I export rooms and my large house in blender lol)

Replicated the iridescent sleeve for the FFGear addon using the sphere textures. This material was automatically generated with no manual changes needed. So material setup can probably be considered done now. Non-gear materials are set up with MeddleTools (beloved) #ffxiv #b3d

Hello Chat
I started working on a tutorial for Meddle, covering both basic and advanced uses, hope to have something worthy of sharing by the end of the weekend!

wanted to do a side by side comparison between in-game and Meddle exported (blender w/ MeddleTools v0.0.29 shaders)
Left is Render, Right is In-Game
Manual changes made in blender were boosting lighting intensity (x10 on all imported lights), camera setup, added sun for shadows

Not at all dumb! It's animated in Blender, with the help of AetherBlend for setting up the rig. Other tools that made this process possible include Meddle and MeddleTools, a retargeting addon, XAT, and VFXEditor.
You can check out Haine's document for more, though it isn't exactly my process.

If you want a pretty complete shader setup I recommend the ones that come with MeddleTools. Not perfect but pretty damn close tbh. They're a phenomenal start. But tinkering with your own duct-tape is of course fun :) github.com/PassiveModdi...
