Hair modelling for 3d character in blender and maya
Project detail
Hi,
I have a 3d character of Lord Krishna in blender and maya both (images attached). It is the same looking character but what I need help with is someone to help me model the hair mostly. The blender hair was done using particle system and I need to change that to poly instead so it is easier to animate. The Maya character hair isn’t quite done. I would like someone to create hair in both software’s and make them look the same/similar so it still appears as though the character is the same.
I’m keen to actually change the hairstyle from what it is right now as well so please don’t assume you need to replicate it as it is. In fact, we might need to experiment with a few options so would love for someone who knows what they’re doing to recommend what would look great. Someone who has good experience modelling 3d hair would be great for this project. Would love to see some of your previous work to help me judge.
You are welcome to research Lord Krishna and how his hair looks (dark, curly and long hair). There is typically a peacock feather in his hair as well that we will need to adjust somehow. I’m hoping to have ‘somewhat’ realistic well-groomed (perhaps decorated with jewels) and good looking hair/style that we can animate i.e. blowing with the wind or while running.
I have attached quite a few images of a few hairstyles I’ve explored, none of which I like yet, either because they’re not detailed enough (not showing hair strands like I would like to) or because the hairstyle doesn’t really look nice.
I’m wanting the character to look divine and princely. So ideally, ‘disney’ character like hair would be great. Among the characters I know have dark -curly good quality hair, I can only perhaps think of Moana (but perhaps something suited for a boy in this instance).
I will share the project files once I have finalised a freelancer. Free feel to ask questions, I’m open to suggestions as long as the character looks great in the end.
Would like the freelancer to submit the final project files with hair all rigged and rendered ready to animate.
