Hello Blender Artists,

This is Lightning using Blender 3.6 Eevee and Hair geometry node techniques.

I won’t let anything stand in my way.

This must be the most awesome presentation I ever seen here!
The hair looks fenomenal! A perfect blend of realistic with stylized! Loved it!
Great light work too! Nicely done!

Gorgeous work, as usual. Her hair turned out particularly well.

I’m curious about the lightning. How did you approach it? Some kind of geonode wizardry, or are they transmapped planes or something? Or applied in post, but they look like they’re physically in the scene.

Thank you very much,

The lightning is basically a spline mesh distorted with noise modifier with some procedural shader and mask gradient to get the effect of glowing lightning in real-time.
