First of all, I'd like to thank Kozaburo for providing his hair as a free resource. It's lovely, and makes my life alot easier.

I've been experimenting with colouring Koz's hair different colours with mixed success.

Using P5 and the Materials room, I can easily colour the Kyoko or Long hair because they plug into a jpeg image, so if you select "Blonde" for your base MAT, you can easily affect it a number of ways.

However, items like the Ponytail, the Up Do and the Messy hair, don't seem to plug into Jpegs, and when I use a Node to plug a coloured image in, the render still turns out blonde???

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks,

Chloe

Have you selected the "Hair" material in the Mat room? On entry, it defaults to the preview material. This foxed me on a number of occasions!

Karen, Thanks for that. Consider me foxed, and now suitably unfoxed. That's exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. Chloe

If you just want to change the colour (not the texture) just change DIFFUSE COLOR to whatever color you want. But make sure you change the color for all materials of the hair like karen1573 said. France
