Hey Johnny

Thank you also for taking the time to leave such amazing feedback. These are my first ever tutorials, so it means so much to hear they have been useful 🙂

Eyes, teeth and clothes are a big weakness for me – why most of my models are naked and don’t smile much 😉 To start with the eyes, do a search for the ‘Clear Cornea’ material in the database and use for the eye reflection and eye moisture. I then load an iRay material in for the eyes and auto-convert them. The ‘tonysculptor sclera’ material in the database is also good, but a bit dark as soon as you add any texture.

Hair – I would definitely recommend the Redspec hair shader, and use them in conjunction with the amazing OOT hair shaders. This might make a nice tutorial for the future as it is fiddly

Many thanks again and best wishes

Brian

This is magnificent!
Thank you for taking the time to put this tutorial together.

BTW. Do you have any material tricks for Octane render eyes or hair? A tutorial on these items would also be greatly helpful.

Thanks again. 🙂
