Time to chat about character hairstyles. Tantz did a newspost about them a few weeks ago and I spun the topic off into a fashion subject for a Quackcast, but something really basic and simple like hair has a lot of potential in its own right. There are lots of things you can consider…

-What does the hair style mean for the story and the on screen action (messed up, neat etc)?
-What hair we like to draw on characters?
-HOW to draw different hairstyles?
-Characters with the best hairstyles?
-To manga or not to manga hair? Manga hair styles are pretty weird. Either clumpy and spiky or weirdly coloured and super glossy.
-Bald is beautiful? Pinky was going to be bald at one stage…
-What's up with beards?
-Body hair?

It's just endless ^_^


This week Gunwallace gave us a musical theme to Wrota Metro - It bounces along like the rythmic, mechanical pulsing of a complex machine, keeping to a time and purpose known only to itself and it's creator. Following its progress is lulling and mesmerising, one could get caught up in it and keep going for days!

LOL!

I think it can. But making a creature with lots of pubic hair could be quite scary as well.

@Banes Hair today!

Ozoneocean at 5:06PM, Feb. 15, 2022

@Jason does the lack of hair make them more monstrous?

Ozoneocean at 5:05PM, Feb. 15, 2022

@CD body hair is another subject haha! Need to delve deeper into that XD

The hair apparent

I find myself drawing a lot of creatures that are hairless and naked in my comic. They are abominations with no reproductive organs so it's not like they have any "goods" to show.

I actually look at some southern hairstyles, to modern metro cuts of northern cities for my SINs and their children. Unfortunately I use their hair style to just that they are different. Sometimes I do this with the eye shape as well. Still need a few more eps. to figure out what to do with body hair. For now just hair on heads and faces.
