TIMELINE:
0:00 - I show the question thread and the Artstation works, from which I was asked to create the tail. I didn't aim to replicate it exactly as it would take more time. However, I managed to demonstrate the basic techniques. We'll improve and finalize it in the next episodes, although the result in this episode is quite good too.
0:07 - We start with quickly creating the base geometry of the tail.
2:19 - Next, we must do the UV, retopology, and so on. We also close the holes. I didn't show all this to save time.
2:20 - Apply the FurBall preset to create the basic shape in Ornatrix.
2:39 - Add the SurfaceComb modifier to set the approximate direction of the hair.
4:01 - Then we add Edit Guides on top to edit the shape of the new guides.
4:27 - Enable 100% hair display in the Viewport for convenience. Be careful, though, as this requires a good graphics card. I have a 3080 with 16 GB.
4:43 - Next, we configure 2 ChangeWidth modifiers, one for rendering and one for the viewport. This is also very convenient.
5:09 - Increase the number of hairs to 100,000.
5:18 - Add the first Clump.
5:56 - Activate the Clump Index Channel for SubClump.
5:59 - Add SubClump.
6:50 - Add the first Frizz to the ClumpId.
7:09 - Configure the Surface Comb again.
7:46 - Remove the empty spaces.
22:12 - Add another Frizz for fluffiness.
22:55 - Edit the guides again as the shape isn't finished.
47:03 - At this point, I realized the allocated time for the first episode was ending, and we needed to render the result.
47:20 - Set up V-Ray render to then render the result in the new Chaos Vantage through Link.
48:53 - Make the basic hair settings.
51:42 - Add HDRi.
53:33 - Since you requested Chaos Vantage, I decided to show it in this episode.
56:53 - Render the final result.
57:35 - Subscribe to the channel, Artstation, and check out other videos.
