I did a little more work on the arms. Mostly all the effort went to the left one. Still have a lot of work to do, but decided to share so you don't forget about me =)
Happy viewing and have a great day!

This is Episode 8 of the tutorial about creating a hairstyle in Ornatrix Maya for the Commander character, which was made by Samir Mir. 

In this video - I continue to work with the guides on the back of the head as well as behind the ear - in Edit Guides.

Started working on the leg details. There's still work to be done, but thought I'd post it so you don't forget me=)

Previous WIP

This is Episode 7 of the tutorial about creating a hairstyle in Ornatrix Maya for the Commander character, which was made by Samir Mir.

In this video - I continue to work with the guides in Edit Guides, namely improving the shape of the guides on the back of the head and near the ear. I talk about a new feature in Ornatrix v4 - Hide Non-Selected and you can already use it. When I recorded the video - it did not exist then, so I first select the guides, invert the selection and hide the excess. And now you can just isolate the guides you want right away - without doing anything unnecessary.

New creature from my "The Forester world"

In this video, I'll be discussing how to use the Modify Roots option(Edit Guides modifier) in Ornatrix for Cinema4D. This option allows you to modify hair roots, which can be useful when creating realistic hairstyles. I'll be demonstrating how to use this option in this small video.

At the beginning of the video, I'll explain how to use Rotate with the Modify Roots option. Then, I'll demonstrate how to modify hair roots using various tools and settings.

Towards the end of the video, I'll provide some tips on using the Modify Roots option in Ornatrix for Cinema4D. I'll also answer some frequently asked questions that may arise when working with this option.

This video will be helpful for anyone working with Ornatrix for Cinema4D and looking to improve their hair styling creation skills. I hope you find this video informative and engaging, and can apply the new knowledge to your projects.

BUY MODEL TO HELP UKRAINE

This model is a symbol of support for Ukraine in the fight for its independence against the darkness that has come to our country from the side of russia and brings only heartbreak.

🇺🇦 Supporting Ukraine 🇺🇦

I'm thrilled to share a new video with you all in support of Ukraine. As you may know, Ukraine is facing some of its toughest times, and I wanted to do my part to help.

In this video, I talk about a beautiful model created by the talented artist @luba_pepunki She was kind enough to share her model with me, and I'm excited to share it with all of you. The model is stunning, and I hope you'll love it as much as I do.

But the best part is that 80% of the proceeds from its sale on CGTrader will go towards helping Ukraine. These funds will be used to support various organizations and initiatives that are working hard to make a positive impact in the country. By purchasing this model, you're not only supporting the arts but also making a difference in the lives of those who need it most. I set the price as low as CGTrader allows, so that everyone can support my country.

Let's come together as a community and show our support for Ukraine during these challenging times. With your help, we can make a difference.

This model was shared with me by pepunki_creatures. She shared all the photos with me, and the renderings of the details - I do myself.

____

The model depicts a watch stork holding a shield with the coat of arms of Ukraine in its left hand and a war lance in its right. The model may have a wreath of flowers on its head, but can also be without a wreath.

Let's support my country together in the fight against this darkness.

This model has a free perpetual license for any personal or commercial use. Not only for printing, but also for making casts. The only condition is that you donate a portion of the profits from Stork to the Ukraine. Any portion that is convenient for you, large or small, is your choice as to how to help. Second important point: please check carefully the organizations for your donations, contact people who know the situation well, so that you don't give your money to scammers or ineffective organizations.

As for you, you can post this on your instagrams if you want, and if you are a merchant, I encourage you to do so! To make this charity idea spread and work.

So fill free to sell physical prints and copies of this model, or your paints, and donate from it to Ukraine!

Here are some specifications and printing recommendations for this model:

The full scale from base to lance tip is about 139mm. I think you can scale it up or down a bit and print this set larger or smaller if you like. I chose something hopefully average and appropriate for many of you.

Recommended material: PLA or ABS.

Recommended print resolution: 0.2 mm or less for more detail and quality printing.

The model consists of several parts, which must be printed separately and then connected.

There are two variants of hats for Stork in my set of finished parts. Hat and Hat_Crown, you can choose which one you like better. I find both options cute :)

In some parts of the model, it may be necessary to use support to get better prints. A version with support is also included in the archive. It can be downloaded separately.

After printing, all parts should be thoroughly cleaned of residual material and connected to each other. We recommend the use of plastic glue or other similar adhesive to bond the parts securely together.

Archive also includes Lychee Scenes for Lychee slicer.

Thank you and wish you peaceful skies! Glory to Ukraine!

In this video, I show how I created a complex hair painting in Metahuman using the Ornatrix plugin for Unreal Engine 5. I use the Vertex Hair Paint feature to paint the hair color directly on the hair model, allowing me to achieve a more accurate and realistic result. After finishing the painting, I demonstrate how to enable the display of the hair color in a special shader. This allows me to achieve a more realistic and natural look for the hair in my projects.

Throughout the video, I explain each step of the process in detail and provide tips to help you create your own Metahuman hair painting using Ornatrix. I also discuss some best practices for working with Vertex Hair Paint and shaders to help you achieve the best results.

Overall, if you want to learn how to create a beautiful and realistic hair painting in Metahuman using Ornatrix and Unreal Engine 5, then this video is for you!

00:00:03 - So, I finally received the welcome kit from Autodesk that they are sending to all Expert Elite members.

00:00:10 - And right away, I would like to thank Maureen Higgins and Dmitry Mukhin for their time and effort in resolving this question. With delivery - in my region.

00:00:23 - Well, let's move on to unpacking.

00:00:26 - When I opened the box, I saw a lot of nice goodies.

00:00:29 - First, there was a certificate of membership in the Expert Elite program, with congratulations from the Autodesk team.On the front of which is written this text.

00:01:56 - Next, I saw such an interesting package - ThinkBoard X2. I didn't understand what it was at first and unpacked it with great interest.Inside was this glossy paper with borders and the Autodesk logo and also - a towel and marker. It was later that I realized it was a great drawing and scribbling board. For which, there is a separate RocketBook app that allows you to quickly scan and send your art to Google Drive - in PDF or other formats. And the washcloth, exactly - allows you to quickly erase what you wrote or drew.That is - it's such an unlimited paper for creativity.

00:02:34 - If you go to the website of the company - you can read about this technology in detail.

https://www.think-board.com/pages/thinkboardx

00:02:38 - And - they have boards of different sizes.They are self-adhesive on any surface.

00:02:43 - Next, in the package was such a notebook with another marker and the badges - which we'll talk about later.The notebook also has the Autodesk logo on the front page.

After - comes a transparency film for tracing paper and it has the same - glossy endless paper for sketching and taking notes. And the marker that comes with it has a great rubber that allows you to quickly erase what you've written.After the magic paper are the usual tear-off sheets, which can also be useful for sketches.

00:03:11 - And the last thing in the box was a warm sports sweatshirt with deep pockets into which my arm would go up to my elbow, and the same breast pocket.Why am I emphasizing that?

Because - often there are sweatshirts in which you can not hide your hands, and for me - it is very important.And of course - there are Expert Elite and Autodesk patches on the jacket. And in addition - I attached the badges, which I promised to show again.

00:03:36 - And this is what the jacket looks like on me.By the way, black is my favorite color. Autodesk reads minds and grants wishes.
