I will just retopo it. maybe group the loose dreads a little more, but i just have to make a blanket mesh over the majority of the head. Then I will just retopo the back hair, and i can definitely drop some strands there. there are already countless strands hidden in that knot. I think i'd rather detail them as they are though, to keep the projection a bit more realistic.

i've never projected something so complicated on to a single mesh though, so i should probably do some test runs first

about those dread i would make 1 straight uvw it etc, then place it in the same way, or reuse geo from the ones in the head, then for ao i just use ao from the low with the dreads , that way you spare uvw space and it has teh same effect ^^

johny i'm not sure i fully understood what you were saying. to clarify what i was going to try, i was just gonna retopo a single mesh across the top of the hair, project detail, and normal map it. i already tried it and it seemed to work fine. you're saying to AO bake the low poly of the original dreads? si es mas facil clarificar en espanol, puedo entender

ralusek

sorry for delay, have way too many side projects at once.
