Add-ons for Blender

There are four Add-ons for Blender I’d recommend. F2 extends the native functionality for creating faces and is a charm to use for retopology. Texel Density Checker to get or set the texel density of a mesh. TexTools have a very big set of tools, mainly for UV Mapping. Node Wrangler to connect nodes ultra fast.

F2 and Node Wrangler are inside Blender, you just need to turn them on in the preferences, Texel Density Checker and TexTools can be downloaded and installed.

Hair

The Hair Particle System that comes with Blender was used for the hair, beard, mustache, arm hair, and sweater. To use this you just need an Emitter. The Particle System defines the roughness, length and how many hairs per strand will appear. The new material Principled Hair BSDF has the melanin concentration option, giving a range of natural hair colors to choose from. Depending on the concentration you can have a dark, red, blonde or even white. Adding strands one by one gives me a lot of control over the total hair form.
