I can't believe this has not come up before, but I've searched and can't find any relevant threads... so here goes...

Body hair... as in what a guy has on his chest, forearms, thighs, calves and of course, his pubes. How do the rest of you deal with it? I'm only aware of a few texture sets that really have any to speak of, and some of them (insanely) put hair on the chest, but none on the arms and legs.

I'm aware of Jepe's Hairy for (fill in the character) I own these sets. The issue with them is, they require a transparent conforming figure to attach themselves to, and even in the case of M4 (where you actually load a second copy of M4 and conform him to the original!) there are morphs and poses that just DON'T WORK.

So here's the question: How do you add hair to an existing skin map? And please... don't give me the fool's answer of "What Photoshop." I'm THAT smart! :) What I need is to know how to go about creating the hairs. Is there a set of brushes for photoshop that can be bought? Once you have them, how do you install them? How do you apply the hair to the texture? How do you keep from getting too much? Those who've suffered with my questions before know I need you to keep it simple.

Can anyone help?
