Hi willf, Here are two sketches that show what shape i want to give to the hair ( and to the face ) . The hair doesn't have to be dreadlocks like i said, but the more natural it will look, the better it will be ! The more important is the shape . A mesh would be great, and even if my computer can't handle complex meshes efficiently, decimation can do miracles :) Nearly six o'clock in the morning, i'm going to bed now ! Tomorrow, i will try a weird technique and show you the results . litst * yaaaaawn ! ***
