Nearly three weeks past the deadline, and this is as far as I got with my IRTC
"Winter" entry. I need to move on if I have any hope of getting anything done
for the "Dreaming" round, but I am obsessed with fur at the moment.

I modeled the wolf from scratch in Anim8or, textured it in UVmapper and PSP then
re-exported the furry parts of the geometry to use with the pcm macros. I had to
create my own create_mesh macro to use a hair object that sized with the
geometry like the cones do in the pcm distribution. The eyes are just CSG.

When I turned this radiosity test render loose last night, I don't remember
leaving some of the colored parts orange, but I obviously did. Comments and
suggestions are welcome, particularly if you have any suggestions for improving
the fur. . . it has some 'directional' issues.


P.S. I noticed something weird too. The smaller post is a screenshot of the
image opened in PSP and as POV displays it. Anyone know why the file version
would seem so washed out?
