Radiant Buling - Base Version


--- Already updated on the 15/Sept/2026 for its very first fix! ---
Thanks to Saryu for discovering this issue very quickly : you guys now have a liberation fixed shaders (which previously punched holes in the mesh and make some parts glows ugly). Lucky me it was just a shader requiring knowledge and not something wrong with my precious mesh!

Greetings my dear humans!
This mod was one hell of a sweaty sweat! Yeah I know I says this pretty often but this one might be a little step further into hardworking, precision and lastly… well, let's say dedication since I now have a huge accumulated rabbit sleep debt and I don't know how I'm going to do Jingran justice after that with so much fatigue!
You might be aware that Buling will soon become an extremely important character to have - to build - and to slip into our future electro-flare or resonance-skill teams. But we've got one problem : she's kind of (very) unappealing. If like me, you're not a fan of her base appearance then you might become one happy person very soon since I gave my best efforts to remold her into something close to a whole brand new character, leaving just roughly her face shape, hair color and voice intact. All the rest will be morphed into a ponytailed girly bomb based on Lumi's smoking hot body shape!
Speaking of which : wouldn't you agree that Lumi's was such a total waste of crazy potential? I mean, surely no one ever plays Lumi nowadays since she's plain useless. This sad turn of events never escaped my mind and the idea of re-using her assets was cooking in my head for a long time. Although you can guess that unique "wavy geometry" was tough to work with and this mod didn't just fall into my laps finished in a few days! It was done accross almost a year as a "secret project" to create a careful and passionate medley of 4 characters + some exclusive parts I meshed on my own. Tail was carefuly removed, a lot of areas including lowerback repaired, textures reworked or created if not previously existing, enhanced or upgraded for the other. A lot of surfaces were re-UVmapped from zero (this was painful and time-consuming). Finally, the task of converting Lumi's vertex & weight distribution into Buling's was so tedious I'll remain traumatized for a while : I had to freehand-paint, balance and test each limb part for hours, join shoes, hairs or clothes parts for a perfect no-clipping/tearing result.
Final outcome of this? Well, we've arrived far further and better than any of the used parts or even my old Lumi Mod! You might realize that when you will look at the new bare skin area of her thigh sides, or her upgraded hair textures, new complex color blendings or may be the new sexy-glossy-carbon-fiber texture from the legendary version.
I think this might be my new favourite personal mod accross the ones I produced for wuwa because even with all those drastic changes it remains perfectly blended with the rest of the game's artistic direction. You're warned : once you press F6 to compare there's no turning back, for me an oddly satisfying feeling happens now when I change to my healer and see this new Buling instead of the dull tomboy I was used to. I firmly hope it will do the same for you...
Last point, more personal : when I imagine new hair color for my next mod I usually think to the lastest anime protagonists I've seen and occasionally admired. So the "Chane" bonus dark hair color refers to "Chane Laforet", a beautiful female character from "Baccano!". A masterpiece I've seen recently and which I can only warmly recommend to you if you haven't seen it yet. Old school, quite brutal, humouristic and with a complex paranormal investigation story.

Woa. Incredible work!
I like Buling's original design . Looks like a mischievous and funny little boy with that Eastern Taoist style, the glasses and her accent......And she's also really strong in terms of gameplay. She makes Carlotta and Phrolova so much stronger But your changes completely turned my original impression of her upside down. She has become a very modern looking little girl, and I never expected you to mix her with Lumi ! That's such a refreshing idea, and I absolutely love your design Among the 4-star characters, I really wish we could get a Buling SP or Baizhi SP someday Thank you again for your secret project, dear King Rabbit
Finally here n looking wonderful ! Imma try that right away thank you master rabbit!!!
Hehe glad to read that!
I think will use this one for a very very long time...
Yeah same for me indeed
Wow, that’s such an amazing idea, and it’s so well done! Great job!! She looks absolutely gorgeous like this! Thank you so much! ❤️
Thank you my dear one!
I will not accept this Lumi slander 🗿 Also, thought you're right 💀 I have her built but she's not super useful. So I was confused at first when I saw this, but man, absolute epic work, man. Thanks!
Haaaa forgive me, this mod is in fact a hidden love-letter for Lumi in a way haha! I hope you enjoy it
interesting idea of combining lumi suit with buling! looks pretty, great job!
Thanks my friend! Although I hope you will notice it's far to be only about simply combining some existing assets haha (bringing Lumi assets "in", hook them to animations and stabilize them was around 15% of the total work) but may be it's because of the lacking number of screenshots for options and such I'm sorry for that.
Tomorrow I'll post the comparative screenshot and make the usual presentation youtube video. I'm currently struggling to post more visuals because Patreon's AI flag it as nudity. Looks like that little partial piece of bare thigh shocked their AI to death. Feel free to mock them on social medias or with your friends if you have a conversation about Patreon. So anyways, I'm sorry my dear ones if you see less screenshots than usual... Too bad I took some hefty time to make some beautiful ones ngl this is exasperating.
Oh wow, a mix between Lumi's outfit + Yinlin's hair. You sir are a genius in disguise for this. That's coming from an ultimate lumi enjoyer too lol
Hehe, I partially resurrected her my friend, for both of us! And it's even better than the last time.
