A friend of mine asked for a hair render guide. It's a bit a bit unorganized and leaves out quite a few nuances/ smaller details to consider but thought I'd share 🙏

While this guide is structured in steps, I generally think about all of these concepts while I paint hair. Enjoy!

As for lines, I generally have the rougher big shapes sketched out like this but messier, and I add lines while painting or at the end as an outline to emphasize silhouettes.
