Wow, I have really got to make time to try and get Look At My Hair to work in Iray.... this is gorgeous!

Thank you, I need to keep experimenting too, it seems like natural light helped this version a lot

Crazy how much lighting affects stuff!

he is a king for sure, looks like his whiskers need some tweaking, they look really stiff against the rest of his fur.

Thank you, I probably should have made them a lot more translucent to soften them

He looks very unpleased. Like a lion from Lafontaine's stories.Β

Thank you, I never know what expression to pit on these big cats and always tend to just make them snarl
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I bet they have some other expressions as well. But yes, it's much less options with animals to not make them look to toony.Β

Nice! I tried to get fur to work in Iray in one of my last images, but gave up. I am really impressed that you didn't have to post work this one. The hair looks really natural.

Thank you, I can only seem to get it to work on one creature at a time and have to follow a strict procedure to get it to work consistently

Ah. I had a feeling there was a lot to it. I decided to shelve experimenting with that for a bit.

He looks so realistic! His expression is perfect. I feel like I can really hear him growling!

LAMH is so damned spendy.Β
But you;ve certainly made it work in this scene.Β

Thank you, I wanted to give it another try and each attempt seems to improve

That does NOT look like a Meow! Awesome character though. Unfortunately me and LAMH don't work together very well... it tends to crash more often than not, destroying my scenes. I have better experiences with Garibaldi, never chrashed so far. Exporting importing the hair as obj is the same, but the 'coiffing' tools work much better for me in garibaldi.

Thank you, I always wondered ifΒ Garibaldi worked better. Is there better control of the hair and do you have to start from scratch to add it to figures?
π: 0 β©: 1
There are two big advantages I find to Garibaldi. First off... if you export the hair to obj the guides don't disappear like in LAMH so if you made a mistake you can go back and style some more. The styling is better I find. However, it is rather more complicated to get the hair to take the color of the underlying fur, so I use it mostly for human hair, which has its own color anyway. It would be easy to work with a skullcap so that your hairdo works for a lot of different characters though.
You can save your characters too I think but I hardly ever do that. It is very solid, I've rarely had a crash while LAMH crashes on me all the times.

The King of the Jungle proving that he's just a big cat after all! great picture!

Thank you, my cats think they are the kings of the jungles

Have to agree with you there, have several of my own, and the little female whose the youngest rules the roost!

Amazing work!! I love the colors of the fur!

Thank you, it's interesting how the lighting really effects the fur color

Not too experienced in fur hair and lions... was the process tedious?
π: 0 β©: 1
The process isn't tooΒ tedious, you just have to convert LAMH to an OBJ and it takes a while on my computer. Β I've learned to do it as the last thing before rendering
π: 0 β©: 1
That is why I hate doing that and why I don't do lions! lol! One day though, I will try it.
