Hair for me has always been a tension between too much detail and too little. It seems now to me to be one of those instances where it takes a certain number of passes and, as Tim says, a variety of brushes, plus a certain requisite amount of paint. The best mental construct for the action for me has been likening it to "weaving"--there's just a lot of back and forth. Then, when I step back and it looks overmodeled, as always, I hit a couple of places with my thumb to soften the excess rendering and fussiness. Wish I could get it right from the beginning but I can't.
Nice job, Tim.
Happy New Year--TE
