Description
This is for photoshop but i also made some psp tubes that paints hair for you JASC users...
http://primalstuff.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/primaltruckhairpsptubes.zip
i tried to keep it very simple, and if prog or pjaj or seacrystal or any of the great ones who paint hair would like to add anything to this it would be wonderful....
it helps to know your photoshop program somewhat.
to get a more real look you can very your colors and add multiple layers of strands with about 80% trancperency,,starting with darker colors and working your way toward lighter hues. blurring the outside edges and around the face gives it a softer look,,adding a little shadow to the face is nice too.multiple layers make it more editable also.
i learned most of this from prog and crasher and beachadonis,,but i know that antje and a few others have fantastic tutorials,and it would help to read them..and thank you so much for this info,i find hair painting to be a wonderful stress release..very calming and fun to do..
and thank you Elfy and the rest for getting me to do this and helping me test my tubes.

Hey!! Wonderful job on this!! I'm always fascinated to see what the little differences are in eveybodys approach!! This is pretty close to the Crasher method that I always use, with a couple of little twists!!! You really do a fantastic job of explaining this in a simple, yet complete way!!! EXCELLENT!!!

Bill, thanks so much for this tutorial. I've been struggling mightily with handpainting hair (in PSP) using finer strands. This helps a lot. I think this should go straight to the tutorials section on Renderosity. Thanks again
