Mike: Yeah thats true a friend in the office pointed that out so am gonna try and figure that out so I dont have too many control curves in the brow, its a stroke on curve as I didn't want to do a poly or nurb with a map on it, but if anyone has any suggestions before I do it please let me know, much appreciated

i see that u used a paintfx stroke curves for the eyebrow.
if u plan on animation, how will u deform the curve, what is your set up. bones or blends.
i have a character i'd like to use fur for the eyebrow.. and i do not really have a set up thought out for the deformation of the face and how the eyebrows will react....
can u help if u know how?.
thanx in advance.
good job once again:p

The eyebrows will have a few blend shapes on the curve ie; frown ,worry extra the once the blends are done on the face for the expressions I will just use Set Driven Key option so the EyebrowFrown blend on the Face will drive, for example, the EyebrowFrown on the Brow... easy hope this helps. As for the rig itself I have my own setup which involves various expressions and other scripting to help it along, but thats all a secret!!!
As far as the clothing goes I'll probably use a wrap deformer on the Jacket and Top, weight them on the Lo res versions and tweak some blend shapes for those too, as for the trousers and boots they'll just be standard soft bind with some nice weighting on.
If you want some more info on wrap deformation check out Steve Stahlbergs site at https://optidigit.com/stevens/ he's got some great stuff going on in there with his figures, some of the best in fact and he is s pretty quick too, check the tutorials section for the wrap stuff.....
