this type of hair!

[NeoNautica]

It would probably be best to make planes with opacity maps for the hair... although you could model all the hair spikes if you wanted to...

[bugo]

is there an example for that?!
thx!

[Ancient-Pig]

look in this guys tuts

http://www.comet-cartoons.com

he has a tut on opacity mapped hair

[bugo]

Thx Ancient-Pig, but i know how to do that, I just need some ideias, on how to do this spikes, or if it needs to be one mesh, or if i need to do some mesh above the spikes, such things like that!

That's pretty much a Final Fantasy 7 looking character.
If you look at the way they make their models, You would get the point

What I would sugest, is you getting a mesh over the guy's head, and pulling up verteces, in the places here you'd want the spikes.

You should watch out for the polycount though...

Tha's all

thats the way to go if your concerned about poly buget

you could even combine that with alpha maps.

[bugo]

dont know, coz this is with the same mesh...
I will do some spikes with alpha mapping above the front hair!
