click for full size and res.

I'm running indirect lighting combined with depth map shadows, so I can tell the hair to be invisible to radiosity. Otherwise...35,000 strands with raytrace on each? Nope.

The strand hair casts beautiful shadows from one depthmap light. Meanwhile, I like what the indirect lighting (four bounces, 50% quality) is doing the great Lana maps from Daz (on V4 of course).

The skin color still does not completely please me although verging on beautiful. Maybe because no attempt at SSS emulation so far.

it looks good IMVHO.  somebody said that the pros do the hair in a separate pass.
I dunno how.  maybe do the body with no hair, then do the hair with body as shadowcatcher.

not that I could even begin to approach this...but I think the hair might need just a nudge on the y axis...just looks like the hairline starts a touch back (unless the texture needs a little more opaqueness on the forehead area?

please disregard if I've spoken out of turn...;)

no you are right, but it's not the location of the (invisible) skull cap, it is the force that pulled the hair too close to the scalp, even under it.  But for a still that should be adjusted.

Very cool, looks great.  So this is dynamic hair. Sure has come a long way.  :thumbupboth:
