dForce Jimmin Hair is a morphing dForce strands model of choppy layered hair, short at back and sides and longer on top, with a soft kinky perm. This style is a long time favourite among Korean “K-pop” Idols.

The dForce hair is grown on a skull cap “scalp” base which is fitted for Genesis 8 and 8.1 (.DUF) and auto-follows most character head shapes. Style and Movement dial sliders help fit your figure poses beyond the 10 sample hair presets provided.

Iray and 3Delight diffuse color presets are included. You can modify the tints by changing the diffuse color of the hair.

Characters, clothing, and environment not included. Please see notes below for “Additional Products used in Promo Images.”

• Usage Tips:
  • Use the dForce clump adjust preset for short length option to ensure good scalp coverage.
  • Use the dForce preset poses and/or hair bones or ERC sliders to pose, with or without dForce simulation.
  • Use dForce wind node to create further movement in the hair.
  • You can easily modify hair colours by selecting your own diffuse colour settings for the hair.
  • After posing, use the style and movement morph dials to match you figure's pose and also ensure fitting.
  • You need at least one light in the scene that will provide the specular highlighting!
