Description
The hair model is Starlet hair by Lisbeth at DAZ, the texture and alpha by me.
Ok so I started playing with hair settings when I was finally fed up with the flat, lifeless look that most conforming poser hair has. It's just....unsightly to have realistic skin in an image, and yes the hair looks like dull plastic or something. I do, as stated in the image, strongly recommend you create a bump map for the hair to get the proper results. :]
Go have fun now! :D
