rendered hair gets better all the time, but it's still not there.

sucks for me because I am weird and I find it hard not to pay close attention to hair in real life, sometimes. this makes flaws in rendered hair extremely obvious to me. :(



Definitely, the hair effects are still not there. Something is off, the hair moves as a block in an unnatural way. The rest of the face is pretty good though. The eyes are weirdly intense, but I suppose it was a deliberate choice and some people with blue eyes look like that.


I agree about the hair. It looked great when it didn't move. I thought the eyes were great; to the extent that they were intense, she's an intense looking lady; and they may have done so to amplify the effects.

I also thought the lips were great. It was the interplay between lips and teeth that really threw me off.

That's a sheer compute power problem. If you have a big enough render farm, you can run physics on every strand of hair.


Throwing more compute power at it is A solution, but it's not necessarily the only solution.
