I just want to show you the technique I used for grooming for my upcoming Renderman hair shading tutorials.

[@anxhelo7383]

when are u planing to upload those renderman hair shading tutorials!

[@jaaypeso]

loved this and looking forward to the renderman hair shading tutorials for sure!

[@emimihalache3800]

Woww, big thanks! Keep it up!

[@Monkok3D]

The dudes on the thumbnail are so chill with their gorgeous hair, that's hilarious

[@andrews9615]

Honestly working with models that aren't judging you all day is a very underrated part of working in 3d.

[@anr3d]

hey Arvid..great walkthrough...but how would you setup curling on the finer clumps when going from fine to big clumping setup like you have now...
wouldn't it be easier to setup the big clumps first to get the curling working?

[@RMAFIRE]

Terrific !!💫💪

[@WestniShiit]

Hey Arvid! I was wondering how to setup colormattes with arnolds GPU rendering. Doesn't seem to work for me. It just spills the color id from the object to nearby objects. All works fine with CPU rend.

[@TheOmariHimself]

Hey is it possible that in katana you can code your rendering lighting and lookdev the binary way?

[@prashantverma9628]

what are the benefits of using groom bear over standard guides? Can anyone please tell me.

[@FaddyVFX]

Thanx for the video

[@rupambayen4223]

please make a material study video on the compound eye / insect eye

[@BOXINGandMODDING]

In which programm you paint hair flow? Looks like pureref with paint ability. But it's something atop?

[@arvidurs]

oh this is just epic pen on top - but you can also use windows snapshot tool. lot's of options

[@vvvarvfx]

Where is node GroomBear?

[@thana3270]

ahhh that technique using pureref to predefine where the guides should be is something I should

[@arvidurs]

yeah, it's really helpful to get started

[@QuiteDan]

Is that a Houdini feature to have reference pics just floating there? Or was that another program?

[@arvidurs]

that's pureRef - I have a dedicated video on that one

[@QuiteDan]

@@arvidurs Thanks, I love it!

[@LordLuigi_Rigs]

✅✅✅

[@jacksonc2956]

Wind sim?

[@arvidurs]

yeah easily done with vellum and siming the guides.

[@raimuhammaduzairfareed7628]

Full tutorial ??

[@arvidurs]

you can play half speed to get a full tutorial :D

[@raimuhammaduzairfareed7628]

@@arvidurs thanks brother

[@gtatak9805]

Maya realistic car Arnold High quality render look like a real make tutorial

Wow! I wish xgen has that drawing guides feature easily

[@JimmySahlin]

I wish xgen just worked effortlessly to begin with xD

[@TruckerChaser]

thanks hair look real in houdini than xgen in maya

[@arvidurs]

if it's a question, the answer is it's up to the artist to make it real not the software

[@prashantverma9628]

are you kidding me, some of the most insane hair works I have seen are from xgen. It's just because xgen is more user friendly than houdini. Although as Arvid said, it depends on artist not software. There is a famous houdini cat hair tutorial which is quite insane as well.
