Howdy.
I've been working on a Audrey Hepburn morph for V3, circa 1961, and the time has come to try and do the eyebrows.
Yikes. I've always hated working on V2-V3 brows; they are a pain.
The way I've modified brows in the past is through transmaps, but after looking at Audrey's GIS images, I'm thinking that something different might be required; really the eyebrows just need to be in a different place entirely.
Suggestions?

Place the eyebrows on the head face texture itself and use a bumpmap for the whole face. Don't bother with the eyebro geometry. Just turn them invisable or use the hide brow morph.

They had thick heavy brows back then compared to the plucked streamlined or even penciled in brows of today.

edit for spelling, I hope.LOL.

Pretty much what I was planning on, except possibly with some displacement mapping thrown in.; I was hoping someone could suggest something I hadn't tried before? The texture mapping method doesn't seem to work quite right when I render the results in Vue D'esprit; my current project allows me to do some rendering in Poser, so any face closeups can be done with firefly.

I really think her eyebrows are, I don't know, different. those suckers are way up there.

Displacement, yep that works too. LOL. You wouldn't think there would be any difference in using the texture in Poser or Vue. I've neve had a problem, what works for Poser works as well in Vue for me.

Yes, she does have quit the brows, the long thin neck too. I did a morph of her myself and found the same thing.

I just thought of something, are the brows on the figure not hiden or not completely invisable with specularity not quit turned down to 0. That may be giving Vue a different look. Maybe the transfer from Poser is not translating right to Vue. Just a guess.
