Here’s my cat, Oliver, also ginger, but doesn’t quite have the body type of a ninja.
After the human head, I thought this would have been easier, but I found it quite frustrating at times. The hair especially took a lot of work. I found a youtube tutorial on how to make procedural eyes, and managed to modify it to make the cat eyes.
The hair is very good. It is hard to get right for fur I find. The only bit I would try to alter is the hair going over the nose, comb it sideways? Trim it very short?
Yeah, the nose was especially problematic. I wasn’t happy when the skin was showing underneath, so that’s why it’s so long and combed the way it is. But I guess I could try coloring the skin differently and trying that.
I think it looks a bit tidier now. I decided to make a whole new particle system just for the nose hair. Also took a bit off the sides, so the head doesn’t look quite as wide.
Nicely done, and I like the eyes. This cat does look like it is only prowl, and the leaves leave a pleasing effect. The strong autumn colours lend well to this composition- whether you did that on purpose (thus planned) or not (thus instinct).
Thanks, I was looking at different backgrounds and the autumn colors caught my eye. I figured they would go well with the ginger cat.
This was the tutorial for the eyes. I originally found it for my human head sculpt, but I managed to tweak it by adding a few nodes and make the cat eyes.
