Hey Kent, I’m loving the series so far! I have a question about hair though. In your blocking in phase you sculpt the hair, and the hair in your final model seems to be sculpted as well. I’m planning on using particle hair for my final model, so would you recommend using particle hair for the blocking in phase as well, or would you still go for sculpting it at this point?

I personally would choose to sculpt hair for blocking and wait to do particle hair as the final step. As in after final retopology and fine detail sculpting via multires.

Particle hair is definitely the more polished choice but it can be a pain to get looking good. It’s a whole ‘nother animal deserving its own course.
