I thought now was a good time to start adding some hair to my 3d Model.

Luckily enough you do not have to make each strand of hair, there is a modifier called "Hair and Fur" which basically adds hair to the entire model. Selecting the areas you want hair to grow, you then can cut the hair, brush it and style it as well as change the color and attributes.















Now i have had some bad times in my day, but this takes the biscuit!! I added the hair and furr modifier and it made me look like something out "The Lion King".

The idea of the hair modifier sounded easy, but after working with it I found that creating my own hairstyle was rather difficult, the closest thing to my hair that I could create ("Spikes") is the following:















Ignore the color, but as you can see, it still looks nothing like my hair at all!! That is a massive Afro, i tried to make it shorter but really struggled with it.

I have decided to use mapping and just add the hair from my original image, because i think it will look more realistic than adding some Afro hair!!
