Darcy II

Here's a quick photo of Darcy II. It's very similar to Darcy I except I took off some of the flexy on the back and added tipped/burnt colors. This will be the 2nd style at the Hair Fair. It is also my first male style. I'm not sure if how many male styles I will make in the future but who knows.

Hair Fair 2008

I only took a few photos quickly so I could update my blog a bit. Hair Fair 2008 is coming up, so anything that I do make in the next month and a half will be for that.
These new styles will come with another hair pack. It was suggested by several customers that I should add some tipped/burnt hair colors and thats what I'm doing now. The total color choice will now be 50 hair colors. One other minor change also suggested by customers was for a "black" color. Nearly black will still be there but Ebony will be replaced by "black" which is much darker. Nearly Black and Ebony were very close anyways.
The style in this photo is complete. It's 100% sculpted. It won't be up until the Hair Fair.
I've been a bit slow making hair and updating my blog. I've been putting 6 day work weeks at my regular job. That will change after this week as I will have two weeks off from that job. I will be using much of my free time to make more hair and catch up so I can put up 5 new hair styles for the hair fair. I don't want to rush either. I guess I'm on a hair mission now!

Fleur

This style took a LONG time. Two main issues I'm seeing. I'm taking longer and being really picky, almost too picky. I'm also doing a lot of work in Maya. And maybe a third, experimenting.
This style is an updo style. It's a bit messy on top and flexy mixed together with torus. The main part and bangs are sculpted.
The long curly bangs took a while to figure out how to make them and it was difficult (Maya). I was happy once I uploaded them though. They look natural and its something that couldn't be done with regular prims at all.
So being that I'm not good at updos and I'd rather make the long hair I'm used too, I'm happy with this one for now.

Darcy - Hair

This is possibly the shortest style I've made in quite a while. I was almost even thinking of making a mens cut out of this too since it was so short.
Anyways just because of its length does not mean there isn't a lot of detail in this hair. It actually took me 4 nights of making this to get it just right and I've been rather picky lately too.
The entire thing is sculpted except for the strands of hair in the back that are flexy prims. Almost every sculpt is individual so there are no repeating prims. I wanted to make this look completely natural.
Take a look. Demos are free so it doesn't hurt to take a look.
I was thinking of making this into a men's cut but need to decide on a few things first. I'm always looking for suggestions. Even if someone dropped a few ideas on me it would be great. I might not seem to take them but in the long run you never know.

Audrey II

Uses same textures as Audrey one so that is the reason behind the same name. It's also longer. For some reason this turned out well. I rarely like my own hairstyles. I maybe have about 5 favorites and thats about it.

Audrey Hair

Made a new hairstyle this weekend but will put it up tomorrow. I didn't have enough time to put it up.
This one is different than some others. The hair textures I made are produced differently than the ones I made before. I don't know how to explain it but the texture of the hair actually follows the hair itself better. Basically it is an improvement. So I tried something else this time and I think this hair is wonderful. Most of the hair is in the back and side. A few strands left on the right side. All of it curly and the non-curly are all sculpted. I was surprised that this ended up being 80 prims or somewhere around there. I don't remember. A lot of times I end up around 100-120. So that is good.
So by tomorrow morning this should be up.
I will also try to reorganize the hair a bit. I'm running out of room and I keep saying I'm going to do something about it.

Drama......Hair

Ok finally it is done! I never want to try to make this style again. Maybe I was just having bad luck. Ugh! At this point I do like it enough to sell.
Everything moves correctly now. The hair looks natural. The bangs even turned out nice and frame the face better. I general preferred darker colors myself but as always it will come in the regular 42 colors.
I will be putting this up later. I'm just really tired and need to go to bed.
Thanks for looking.
