Character FX

HAIR & FUR

Hair and Fur play a key role in adding Character FX to your shots. Houdini includes a comprehensive toolset for creating and grooming both hair and fur on characters and creatures. You can add the hair and fur to move with the underlying deformed geometry or simulations can be set up using the Vellum solver for added realism.
