How Do I Sculpt Messy Hair?

Hi! I’ve been having trouble with messier hairstyles, like the one of Michael Buble, shown here. How should I go about sculpting hair like this?

try the snakehook brush to start pulling out spikes and then go back and sculpt in more strand like things on those

Hi Sandalman,

A few things I can think about -

  1. Importing from Maya’s hair system…
  2. Using the displacement brush with some kind of scattered alpha to make the “strand” meshes, then sculpting with the move-elastic brush, and maybe rendering with the fiber-material to make everything look fluffy (and maybe play around with the strand width)…

Let us know how it goes!
