myrmaad Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hair is really difficult. I did some minor edits to a vanilla Oblivion hair to make the hair for the character I created to be an avatar for my husband, and a couple others since then, and I found working with it very daunting. If anyone can do it, I know you can, Tk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakulux Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 Nothing big, at least for anyone but me. I had to reinvent my texturing workflow, and I've finally come up with something I'm pleased with. I'm also moving into some slightly different terrain when it comes to modeling, so things are slow right now. :) No worries at all, You are doing this with your own time and effort, I have modelled hair before and yes I know it can be horrible!

throttlekitty Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 yes, yes it is. Thanks for the encouragement! I'm taking a different approach, more alpha usage in the texture, and more layered 'strips' in the model. So getting a good alpha was paramount, but painting strokes in Photoshop tends to leave a smudgy mess to clean up. Illustrator to the rescue! Here's a crop of some of the longer strips I'm using. Still WIP, need to work up a model now and get a better feel for how many 1px strands I should add before it all smudges out in 3d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garathos Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I made another topic asking for some male haircuts then i found this post today... Well yes please the men need better haircuts for sure, all the hair mods ive found are emo/ animae hair or else female (not like theres much difference to my way of looking at them) So yes MALE haircuts would be very appreiciated. These would be some of my favorites from DA2 (well minus the cowlick in the second pic hehe). They are short length haircuts and even better they are simple but nice looking. If you could add some of these DA2 haircuts into the mod your working on that would be great. If not well i still look foward to having some more manly hair to choose from lol. Oh and just a note only had the hair set to white so stands out from the dark background better :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myrmaad Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 When you are asking for something, it might go over a bit better if you refrained from disparaging others during your request. Read your post again and notice how rude that sounds when you characterize the things that are simply not to your own taste with those judgmental epithets.

Garathos Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Apologies, I truly did not mean to offend anyone by my comments merely that those certain styles that have mods so far simply do not appeal to me. I do not persume to judge others for their own tastes. Nor do I go around abusing or riduculing those that download and post comments on how much they like a mod that I do not. From what I posted I simply don't see what would be disparaging to others. Was it the emo / anime bit? as like I say its from my point of veiw and well to be honest I do not even know what possesed me to put emo in there so I cheerfuly retract that part.(edit: actualy now i recall where i got that term from it was from the OP'er) As for the rest of it, truthfully animae haircuts to me look closer to a female haircut, to others they do not but to me they do. I see on your info your listed as staff, so when i say this I say it with all due respect. Anyone can take offense at the smallest and most inconsequential thing. I myself could take offense to what seems to be you making a disparging remark about my prefered style of haircut. But I do not. I relise that being staff here you have to at least try and maintain order and some sembelence of common manners. To which I applaud you and the other staff and owners of this website, as since joining I have felt it to be a rather nice enviroment and quite welcolming. *sigh* Sadly this type of misinterpretation does happen now and then as text often fails to convey the tone behind what was written. I shall of course take your comment under consideration when posting in future, I also appologise in advance if something does come out as disparaging in the future, as it truly is not meant that way. I usualy only post in spots that i agree with or like. All I mean by my post is simply put I would love to see this mod with the Male Haircuts, as there don't seem to be any out at this point and the extra variety would be a boon to the community. I have offered my suggestions and requests I would offer my help in this endeavor to but sadly I lack the skill at this sort of stuff and would only be a hinderance. Regardless if my requests are picked up or not by the author im sure once its done there will be many choices that will look awsome. I look foward to keeping track of this mod. Hopefully you, and others that share your veiw of my earlier post can forgive me Myrmaad as i was only intending to express my own personal style of haircut. I wish you all well with the creation of your "ideal" char and hope this mod in the works brings you one step closer to achieving it. Just like I hope it does for me. Cheers :) Edit: Dont mind me just polishing off my post so I hopefully dont offend anyone again. Edited January 27, 2012 by Garathos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMysteriousTraveler Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) I always wanted Adam Jensen's hair from Deus Ex for my character. Mainly because its similair to my real life hair. Looks a bit too modern/futuristic for skyrim, but i would still like to have my character wear it... I'm sick of him being bald because of lack of good hairs in the game... Here it is: http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee500/ZayneCleric/Untit1111111led.jpg Edited February 7, 2012 by TheMysteriousTraveler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
