After trying out the Photoshop methode making hair I did the same with the DecoBrush in ZB. I used an alpha to paint the hairs. The hair on the head is a combination of the HairsAlpha and the OneHairAlpha. On the cheek I used the SmallHairAlpha with a transparant setting of 60.
Here I used a texture in combination with the HairsAlpha.
Try it.

Never felt brave enough to do a character with hair, maybe one day…
Really nice aproach Bas, will give it a go tonight.
Heyas Bas,

Thnx for sharing some of your alphas, I will also give this a try later this evening. Hope all is well with you and yours.

Thanks for posting your experiments and observations Baz.
Looks like a great technique for also painting vegetation.
I keep hearing about the deco brush,… what is it really? any screenshot of it so I can be clear on it?
Tigerz: this is the one
Boozy, yes, when working in layers with Photoshop it is easy to select the floating layer and make an alpha of it. The brush is scaling at the beginning and the end. If you do not want that, do not use the left and right side of the document. Keep it black.
