Hair, how it angers me so...

I was wondering how you would make some hair… I dont need a lot of texture, its a cartoon, I just need a block of hair, that has the shape you know? Only thing is, I am not sure how to do so. I know I can make verticles with cntrl left click so maybe I shoud draw it??? Only if I do, I just make a line, and I cant make it become hair… :frowning: Can anyone please help???

—the simplest way to do so is to:
first- “draw” the lines (hair lines i mean) in your model
second- in your material settings turn ON shadeless, this way your “hair” will render as lines

You MUST draw poly-lines NOT planes

—if you have a little more time take a look at my signature, i wrote a tutorial for hair -warning- it is not a simple task but you can have terrific hair

BUT------ DON’T WAIST (edited: the word must be WASTE not waist %| )YOUR TIME. Do a little effort to learn how to use the new particle system it is GREAT
