The
creation of eyelashes is one of the
most complicated tasks of a human model,
there are different ways to create them,
but the one that I am going to explain
is the method which I feel most comfortable
with; in addition, to this the result
can be very realistic.
Select
the edges that will be used for the
start point of the lower eyelashes.
Click
the "Create shape from edges"
button and set the "Shape type"
to "Linear"
Make
the shape renderable with a thickness
of 0,5 with 3 sides. It is advised to
use between 4 to 6 steps for distant
shots and about 8 to 12 for close-ups.
Now
Right-Click in the "Snap"
button and check "Vertex"
in the options dialog.
Use
the "Refine" command to add
extra vertex points to the shape. It
is important to remember that the centre
of the eyelash is more densely packed
with hairs than the outer areas; add
the vertexes accordingly.
