VampireHunterD Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Umm.. I have a litttle problem. I'm building the Chiana model from Farscape for HapSlash's skinpack but I don't know how to make her hair. If you don't know who Chiana is and don't watch Farscape (which you should watch. it's on scifi fridays), here's a picture of who I'm talking about. I am at a somewhat weird loss to understand how to make the hair. I'm wondering if in theory you could build it the same way the wookie hair was made. But I don't understand how to build that either. Just look at this pic and tell me if you have any ideas how to build it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentMobius Posted July 11, 2002 Share Posted July 11, 2002 Well here's a little more reference http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana2.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana3.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana4.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana5.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_Chiana6.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_ChianaBlank.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_ChianaCautious.jpg http://www.silentmobius.co.uk/GFX/Gigi_ChianaCheeky.jpg Now I'd start with a solid model the basic shape of the hair but a little smaller then add alpha blended polys in across the fringe and every 20 deg or so out of the sides, kinda like the wookie.

VampireHunterD Posted July 11, 2002 Author Share Posted July 11, 2002 Hey Silent Mobius. That sounds like a great idea. I kind of understand what you mean. But could you explain in some more detail what you mean? I'm not entirely experienced in modeling yet. If I remember correctly (which half the time I don't), the wookies hair was made also using some sort of plugin or something. Or am I just not remembering right? You wouldn't happen to know where a tutorial that covers this kind of thing specificly is do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VampireHunterD Posted July 11, 2002 Author Share Posted July 11, 2002 Well, forgive if I sound totally stupid for asking this, but what exactly is alpha mapping? how does it work? And how am I supposed to do it? I have no clue how to do alpha mapping at all. This is another skill I must acquire and learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomad Posted July 11, 2002 Share Posted July 11, 2002 I wish I could help you on this, but I don't know how to do it either. This is definitely a great technique that should be shared and explained by those that are in the know. Try asking Major Clod, the maker of the wookiee model, as he is certainly capable of using the alpha hair technique. I'm sure there is someone, or some tutorial out there that will present itself to you and the rest of us. Until then... we'll just keep this thread floating up here. -nomad MTFBWY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VampireHunterD Posted July 11, 2002 Author Share Posted July 11, 2002 Well, it seems I can't send Major Clod a private message. I just got to hope he looks at this thread.
