Hello,

now, as "Jan" is born, I decided that it's time to stop working on this 
picture (although I'm not completely satisfied). The fur in this picture 
has been created by combining 

[1] J.T.Kajiya, T.L.Kay: "Rendering Fur with Three Dimensional Textures" in
Proc. SIGGRAPH '89, Computer Graphics 23/3, July 1989.

and

[2] K.Perlin, E.M.Hoffert: "Hypertexture" in
Proc. SIGGRAPH '89, Computer Graphics 23/3, July 1989.

More precisely, the lighting model of [1] was combined with the hair
distribution of [2]. Some noise and gravity has been added to create
waves and to let the hairs hang down. The fur actually consists of two
media containers ("hypertexures") one with thick, short hairs and one with
longer hair. The container of the latter is modified by a noise function 
(and therefore is described by an implicit function).

  I barely understand the technique, but the result it's impressive: I can 
almost feel the softness!

Stunning!

May I ask for the sources? And, I'm not asking too much, a quick note on the
implementation details and strategies?

Very impressive!

I too would like to ask for sources or a pointer to the technique.  This is
very good.

Beautiful fur, but I think the limbs are too small for the body.

Shouldn't that be 'bear-ly'?

I'm glad you ask. The sources (alpha quality!) are at

That's how this looks with noises of newer version of POV :-)
Sorry for large size but I wasn't interested in loosing quality.

is that media? the effect is just great unless you have black spots under
the right arm.

this looks good! Only the texture could be slightly more realistic. (don't
know how)
