I was looking for possible H.P. Lovecraft hair and I was pleased to find that the free generic M4 Hero Hair<\/a> is about right and that it shows up nicely in Poser 11 in real-time Comic-book Preview mode. The hair requires only slight teaks to give it a tight fit from all angles on a Michael 3 head…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In Smooth Shaded display mode + Comic Book it even shows quite nice hair-strand lines, which is excellent. For a comic one would just need to fix the front inked hairline in Photoshop, which would be easy if one had ink-lines and colour-flats as two separate renders.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This look is had without applying any of the MATs made for it. Applying a MAT turns the hair back into Hair Room ‘strand hair’ in Preview, which is no good. <\/p>\n

Without a MAT, in a colour display-mode the default hair colour is green, but that’s easy to change in the Material Room…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The hair can also look good, showing the same brushed strands, in standard Texture Shaded display mode + Comic Book onto Colour. Here’s another Michael 3 head showing the look…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yes, this is M3 in Poser in real-time. While the hair’s strands can “bubble” in certain lights, this problem is greatly reduced when the Preview is then anti-aliased.<\/p>\n

So, M4 Hero Hair is your go-to base choice for generic male hair in Preview in Poser 11. It’s found under: Figures | ice-boy | hero_hair in your Library, not under Hair.<\/p>\n

Another choice is the ancient Ben Hair (ships free as legacy content with Poser) has sections that can be re-positioned to taste. Provided you don’t delete the invisible folliclebase<\/em> base section the hair-parts are attached to, the Ben Hair shows up quite nicely as dense stranded hair in Preview. Perhaps that’s the secret — Hair Room strand hair shows up in Preview if it has connection to a normal hair base?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Poser users could do with a pack of hairs specifically made for the real-time Comic Book mode, especially as M4 Hero Hair is “non-commercial use”.<\/p>\n
