CUSTOM HAIR FOR METAHUMANS
With the unveiling of Metahumans by Epic Games, being able to develop custom human avatars has never been more accessible, but with this comes the challenge of having custom hairs for your custom Metahuman characters. Our tool of choice, XGen, allows our artists to create intricate and realistic hair designs for virtual characters. With this technology, we’re able to provide personalized hair grooming solutions tailored to each Metahuman’s unique style and personality, bringing their digital personas to life.
Starting from simple reference images (pictures) of any hair style you could image, our artists are able to develop detailed hair solutions to accompany your Metahumans digital doubles. This is also well-suited for bespoke digital characters created in your studio, including 3D scanned models.
Having custom hair grooms for your Metahumans characters will enable you to create and showcase your stunning visual results in Unreal Engine.
We are able to create intricate braids, flowing locks, and realistic hair physics, and we would welcome the opportunity to work closely with your team, providing input and reference materials to ensure the virtual hair perfectly matches your vision for your custom Metahumans characters.

3D HAIR GROOMING FOR REAL-TIME & VFX
Currently working with major 3D scanning companies around the world, we are able to create a wide range of hairstyles for both VFX and real-time characters. 3D scanning is one area our hairs play a major role in. We take the scanned heads of characters and apply hairs, eyebrows, eyelashes, and vellus hairs/peach fuzz. We supply the 3D scanned model back with a complete hair system, ready for production.
Hair creation and grooming can be a time-consuming task, and our grooming artists excel at this. We create highly optimized hair cards for real-time projects like game development. These real-time hairs are also suitable for augmented reality and virtual reality projects.
