Why make Chewbacca? Is easy I wanted to practice the hair style. The hair Is a speciality in itself and is something complicated to control.
The Colors
Well, first we have to organize the hair in the model. I use the different colors of the hair object as in ZBrush. This way we can to see the parts of hair in the model to easy form.
With this personal project, I learned to use a hair preview that is best than view the guides. This mode is similar to hair preview in ZBrush.
The Tousled fur
In a second moment we have to configuret the shaders of the hair of Chewbacca. In the Chewbacca white version we can see the imperfections or fails of the hair shader and is a good mode to repair these drawbacks.
Well to finish this post I will have to say that Chewbacca was made in a three days, with a little rig for make any poses. And the most important, this character is basated in Skottie Young sketch of chewbacca. And is my tribute to Star Wars 40th Anniversary.
