oh, its you

#

i dont like talking in dms with people i dont know, so i will talk in here

#

triangle hair is, very much depends on your style honestly

#

you could do the micky mouse route, where the cirlcles (or in this case, triangles) alwasy face the camera

#

or look at what sonic does but on smaller scale

#

where theres multiple spikes, that is visually clear on multiple angles

#

"which is the best way" is entirely what style you want to do, there isnt one specific way to do it

scarlet arch
#

I think the sonic one might be easier for me to do

#

this was my first attempt at it

ebon smelt
#

why you used tubes with holes btw?

scarlet arch
#

oh those were planes that I exuded I thought that would get the shapes on here

#

which from looks is not it

#

what shapes would even be best for like making spikey hair like the picture I posted?

ebon smelt
#

1, why not try actual triangles

#

2, if its hair with generla round shape, you could jsut pull the vertex for triangle

scarlet arch
#

I was trying that but everytime I did I felt like it wans't coming out right here let me

scarlet arch
#

I kept using pyramids

ebon smelt
#

yes, cube, cut vertex corner, add new face

scarlet arch
ebon smelt
#

i think? too small to tell

scarlet arch
scarlet arch
ebon smelt
#

could i get some full screenshot with shading on so i can tell the depth perception?

scarlet arch
ebon smelt
#

ig thats a triangle you have there

#

do you have an art ref of character you want to do?

scarlet arch
#

here he is

ebon smelt
#

do you really need triangles that small?

scarlet arch
#

I don't think so really

#

I was mainly looking at likr the ones in the back

#

but everything about that hairstyle as been a pain

#

another issue I have is just not knowing how to like

#

place it properly without making it look bad

ebon smelt
#

you know, those sonic model has shapes merged with the head

#

so it seems so with your character

scarlet arch
#

oh so use the merge tool then?

ebon smelt
#

kinda, or you shape it out of your character head

#

like sculpting

scarlet arch
#

oh?

#

hmmm

#

that latter option is possible

#

I'm guessing vortex would be easier to do it?

ebon smelt
#

dragging vertex of the head? ig yea

scarlet arch
#

how would u do it if I can ask?

ebon smelt
#

click vertex, drag

scarlet arch
#

oh I might like sculpting the head to look like the hair

#

ig something like this for example

ebon smelt
#

ig yea

scarlet arch
#

sorry if this seems super easy and I'm struggling 😭

#

I really do appreciate your help I'm just not used to something like this

#

I feel this is close to the bottom 2 (?)

#

Idk how I would get the other pieces

#

like idk what vexes I would use

#

the top one and like drag it onto itsef? for the two tone hair color one I mean

ebon smelt
#

i have no idea what you mean honestly

scarlet arch
#

when I said other pieces I meant like the hair

scarlet arch
#

and the ones above it

#

for the two tone hair one I meant this

#

did I explain it better?

ebon smelt
#

you could always loop cut or exxtrude vertex to have more vertex to play with?

#

extreme zoom in does not help

scarlet arch
#

oh sorry

scarlet arch
#

U mind if we can come back to this later I kidna want to take a break to asset everything you told me @ebon smelt

ebon smelt
#

i wanted to take a rest from the start

#

dont dm people for help btw, usually people have their own things to do, thats why i never said anything here from the start cus i had things to do

#

also if you do want people help, be more specific in what you want, jsut asking "making hair triangle" is way too vague, even i didnt bother until you tried to dm me?

scarlet arch
#

oh sorry
