Xgen Full Hair Grooming Tutorial (hair, Eyebrows and Eyelashes)

Xgen Full Hair Grooming Tutorial (Hair, Eyebrows and Eyelashes)

This is a full lenght screen captured video of my workflow to create a realistic groom, it includes eyebrow, eyelashes (done in Xgen Interactive Grooming) and the main hair (done with Xgen Core)

With this method you will learn how to create curves to match the hairstyle you want in the easiest way possible.

I have use a program to record all the keys that I use during all the process so all the shortcuts are shown.

The video is 3 hours and six minutes long, without any cuts, so you wont miss any part of the workflow. It is not narrated.

Maya and particularly Xgen are quite crashy so you will see me constantly saving and making backups of the guides and curves, so I recommend you to do the same. I have decided to leave some Maya crashes to show you how to deal with them.

Feel free to ask me, thank you

    I can’t understand what you are doing because there aren’t even notes or anything that explain the process

    yea I know description said that this video is NOT NARRATED (it should be bolded in my opinion), but could you give us just some reasonable chapters? with reasonable titles, for example: ‘from 0:00 – 25:00 Zbrush, we are making here bla bla bla for prospective guides bla bla bla’ that would be nice, just a title with a little bit of explanation because now I want to check something special and I have just 3 hours long video, how am I supposed to found what am I looking for?
    hope you will find this message not offensive, just feedback
    cheers 🙂

    Thank you for your feedback.
