• Skinning Facial Hair
    3 replies, posted
I'm working on a custom facemap of mine, but I've run into a major obstacle: How would I skin on facial hair onto the facemap? I get the impression merely using photoshop brushes would be insufficient (not to mention the ones I have for GIMP don't cut it), but does anyone have experience with this? In short, I need to find out how this is done. Any advice? Edit: Anyone?
Well, you could try: [code]Create a new layer. On the Layer, create noise where you want it to be. Opacity/Darkness/Contrast settings [here]. Change HUE to match color. fade the sides of the noise ??? Profit.[/code] It works for me when creating stubble.
Here's a good tutorial that expands a bit on the method explained above: [url]http://www.graphics.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=227[/url] Radial blur is fantastic for scattering noise to generate natural-looking stubble.
Thanks, guys. I think it works in GIMP as well, so this is good.
