How to CONTROL HAIR in BLENDER 2.8 - 2 Minute Tutorial

no no no you control blender with curve guides in practical edit mode well yeah it's a bit fiddly yeah but it gets the job done go on then show me [Music] hello boys and girls my name is Teddy Mac and do you remember a few weeks ago when I was like stripy cells in guys the 60-second tutorials are back and then I am sorry I've had a client job that's been hogging up most of my time but after this one I'm gonna stop them indefinitely so if you're thinking about buying something from my gum rod also you might have noticed that the 60 second tutorial title has changed ever so slightly to the two-minute tutorial there were three reasons for this number one you can fit so much more into two minutes than you can one some might even estimate this earth double to two minutes is still a small portion of time so I'm sure I won't get that many complaints oh boy Cheryl getting some three it just rolls off the tongue a bit better 60 second tutorial two minute tutorial mmm where am i sighs bye now just a small disclaimer I shall not be held responsible for blowing anybody's mind during this tutorial if anyone should be held responsible it should be timid clover from whom I was introduced this technique in her video I've just refined it a little bit for one to two pi a so be sure to send any love and lawsuits her way let's put 60 seconds on the clock let's put another 60 seconds on the clock strap yourselves in guys no no way I already did that one and it was cheesy the first time here's the tutorial so you've got your head and you've got your scalp pause if you don't know how to get to this point just about every blender tutorial out there will show you how to do this resume let's create a her system on the scalp and then increase the strand steps a touch let's invite the interpolate children to this party too now we'll add a Bezier curve and shape it into a ponytail now in the physics tab click fast field and change the type to curve guide now I've written on my script to do something dramatic at this point so feel free to use your normal curve tools like all as for scaling oh you know ctrl T for twisting think of the fun you can have with this if you strum the steps a turn off but the her still looks kinky you just turn up the resolution on the curve as well to fix it now it's unlikely we want to control hers growing from the entire scalp with a single curve so let's map out where the her should grow from create a new vertex group and I'll call this ponytail know what I'll do is jump into weight paint mod and essentially wherever I pen is where the hairs are gonna grow from so I'll have the pedicles so I can see what I'm doing and just pay easy peasy know if I'll bring the hers back nothing's actually change yet because I need to come down to vertex groups and next to density I want to select my new vertex group and voila now before we get all excited if I was to create pigtails instead of a ponytail meaning we need two curves we're gonna run into a problem whereby the hers don't know which curve to follow that's because for this to work each curve needs three things a bits on it needs its own particle system it needs its own weight painting and each curve needs to have its on per and collection like given this fact this isn't really the best solution for a full head of her but for big shapes like a ponytail or pigtails this is perfect once you have these three things set up you want to come in to each particle system and set the density appropriately as we did before but this time we also want to open up filled weights and set the effect of collection appropriate with two now go and have some family based this is almost certainly gonna change the way I approach her in blender and I'll love it now you think I'm gonna ask you to shove a thumb off leaver build thick filthy comment and to tickle the subscribe button and yes please do all those things but also please go and check out my gum Road stop there's a bunch of tutorials and other goodies on there you won't find on the channel and it really is keeping the channel life at least until Wacom start sponsoring these videos but I think might have a long wait for that have a good weekend guys
