We all know the Virtual Makeover CDs can be used to create hair in Post production, but how about as a modeling tool? If you had a 360 view I think the task would be much easier.. What say you? -JH.

Wow Jeff. I am totally lost about the makeover bit, but Dang thats nice stuff :O) Sprout

I'm with Sprout. Looks FANTASTIC, and HUH? How? -Talos

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, Jeff. These are some nice hair patterns...did you paint these?

I heard the new version of the Cosmo CD offers side and rear views of hair...is that what this is? Regardless, I agree - excellent stuff, especially the top style.

These are screen captures from Virtual Makeover2 Deluxe. Some of the hair styles will rotate 360 degrees. A modeler could do a much better job making hair if they can see it from all angles. I'm asking if having this type of image as a guide will help in the process.

Talos ( ) posted Thu, 27 January 2000 at 5:35 PM

That's good to know. Everybody told me to get the 1st one with the pink box (the hair is masked) so I did! Hmmm.

JeffH ( ) posted Thu, 27 January 2000 at 5:37 PM

These are not masked and the only way to do it is with a screen capture. Also, not all the hairstyles have a 360 view.

Talos ( ) posted Thu, 27 January 2000 at 5:45 PM

Still could be useful. Depends on how many 360 views there are, at around $27. I used to scan B&W adds for wigs in the National Enquirer, then colorize them, so I am easy to please. Screen captures are no problem for me. :-)

The Virtual Makeover2 Deluxe version is more like $50.00

JeffH ( ) posted Thu, 27 January 2000 at 6:58 PM

If it asked for a CC# it wasn't the deluxe version. I'd say 60% of the styles are 360, more or less.

To answer your question. Yes these are indeed helpful, if they were larger. And any men styles? James

JeffH ( ) posted Thu, 27 January 2000 at 7:37 PM

They don't get any larger unless you resample the images. There are a few men's styles, but I haven't looked at them. -JH.

Virtual Makeover V2 (regular) does ask for cc for 360 views. you can export just a bmp of the hair, then you have to make a mask in Photoshop to use in Poser. This version $27 only does hair/head stuff. Glasses hats skin color/skin tone & lots of hair.

That certainly will help Jeff - with front/side/back views of the hair, modelling the shapes should be much easier. Paul
