Achieving Wet Fur Material for Curve Fur in Blender 4.0.1

[Amal_nanthu (Amal Nanthanan)]

Hi everyone,

I’m working on creating a character with wet fur in Blender 4.0.1 using the Curve Fur system. I’ve set up the base fur and adjusted some material properties, but I’m struggling to achieve a realistic wet fur look.

Could someone advise on what material properties are most important for creating wet fur (roughness, transparency, etc.)?

Additionally, are there any specific nodes or techniques recommended for achieving a convincing wet fur effect in Curve Fur? Any pointers or resources would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Wet fur material in Cycles?

Hi, how do you make a wet fur material in cycles? For the moment I use two Hair shaders - one Reflective and one Transmitive - and mix them using the Intercept value from the hair info node. In other words the basic setup :o Now I want to increase the glossiness to make my fur look wet but can’t get it to look right. I’ve tried three things: 1. Added another mix shader and mixed in a basic glossy shader to the said shaders. 2. Set the colour of the Hair glossiness node to white. 3. adding a m…

Blender - Wet hair look?

Hiii! so, I saw an animation the other day and I noticed the animator masters a really nice look on their models by giving them a sweaty hair look that sticks to the characters head, I’m not sure if this is just a texture or hair cards that is possibly shrink-wrapped or just placed close to the face. I was curious if anyone knows how to somewhat recreate this? or has some learning materials/resources that comes close to what the animator has managed to do. - I am fairly experienced myself just …

I think the challenge is not only the wet material but also the different look when short or long hair gets wet… so:

I don’t understand how to do this yet. I don’t know if anyone knows how to do it. I haven’t seen any tutorials online. I don’t know what to do, Nobody helping me

Wet hair style (cycles).

Hello there, I’m using cycles and I try to get a wet effect my character’s hair but I don’t succeed. For the shape, that’s not really a problem, I use the clamp setting, but the problem is more with the shader itself. I use as setup for my nodes the same as the tutorial of andrew. http://www.blenderguru.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/13-580x201.png Some help would be welcome

Wet hairs

Hi. Is it possible to use some shader to make hairs look wet (or at least shiny) in blender cycles 2.79? If so how to do that?

Wet hair and also fur just looks darker and more shiny…

Or in general wet surface ( ten years old answer… but stil valid ):

How can I make a surface look wet in cycles?

Also as i mentioned: the wet deformation depends on he length of the fur or amount of water.
You also didn’t mention any technique you are upt to ( hair-cards, particles ) or the style ( cartoony, realistic )…

The key is using the Cluping either in GN-Hair or Particle Hair…
That Brings the strands together at the tip…as if wet.

The shader is two-fold, you need to darken the roots and Highlight the outer surface ( use the roughness in the Principled Hair BSDF)

This is Human hair but the idea should apply to fur as well…
