How to make figurine hairs tutorial

As frequent requests of many friends here, I make this simple tutorial of how to make figurine hairs. Hope you would have the idea of how I make the hairs. There are many different ways making hairs depends on hair style. I'm making wavy long hairs here. I'll make other hair styles when my time allows. And sorry I only make half of the hairs for your reference.

It is pretty much self explain of step by step in the picture comparison. Although it looks simple but you do need the proportional conception of your figurine to hairs in mind, compare with the size and styles of characters that you are making. Realistic, comic or cartoon etc.

I make a basic head/ face in 20 minus for example, I'm not going to do anything with the face so I leave it unfinished like that. Just focus on making hairs. I didn't look on any drawings or pictures when sculpt this figurine, just float with the clay, follow how it goes. You can look at your reference or designs if any.

Keep this in mind, no matter how you do it, always start from big portion of hairs first, don't just go right to the detail hair lines. When you are done and happy with big portion of hairs, go making the lines, make it like when you are drawing a sketch. Make more lines and details in deeper areas. Less lines on raised hairs which will make it look shiny in layers. Don't do the lines all the way. It will end up like yarns or brushes. You may use the knife to cut open some outstretched hairs. Fix a little bit the sharp edges with your fingers or tools.

As you can see, I use wooden tools for hair in angle, that would make better lines without going back and forth to fix it because some tools you use maybe too sharp for it. "Important point: don't make the hairs in crossing lines." Even they look across but they don't in reality. Hairs are in layers, well, usually...

Oh by the way, you may use nail polish remover or denatured alcohol to smooth it out when finished, don't put too much! Do some test on other clay before you apply to your sculptures! Touch up with the hair lines again if necessary, please refer to my tools tutorial #18 and 19 at
