Title: How to create feathers on a wing with Corona Hair?
Post by: johnnyswedish on 2020-02-21, 12:43:35

Hi Forum!

I am trying to create feathers on wings using Corona Hair. Is there a way to manipulate the hair to follow the wing instead of just pointing straight out? Many Thanks, John :-)

There's just one little trick (took me some time to figure it out) - in order to "bake" the state of your hair into the model, you have to use "Simulate" -> "Hair Edit" -> "Set as Dynamics", otherwise the hair might get reset when you change the timeframe
