How to make a hair only pass?

I want to add some hair details to a character’s skin (like peach fudge) and I try to find a way to render only the hair to a transparent layer.

Currently I have found nothing about it so any help is welcomed.

You could put the hair on its own layer and set up a render layer just for that layer

Hi Richard, when I have various parts of the model separated?
e.g. I have the head separated from the torso and the arms as well.

This brings this problem as seen in the image.

I don’t know if there’s a workaround for this, perhaps I might merge the meshes together but I hoped I would make the body parts more reusable that way. :slight_smile:
