I don't think it would be a significant enough improvement to make it 
worthwhile.  There is just too much else that falls short. The hair can 
look better but the density and coverage has to be balanced very 
carefully. Out of testing time, and in order to guarantee an entry at 
the last minute, I had to overdo the density, effectively nullifying the 
usefulness of my technique. I may rework that composition just to 
improve the technicals and rerender or I may upgrade the whole concept.

(While the open setting is very pleasing and came off way better than I 
expected, the original idea involved a more oppressive sense of the 
jungle, like described by Ferdinand Celine.)
