No, they're not furry. They are, however, from Norway and made of
wood. I have three of them (named Control, Alt, and Delete) which perch
near my monitor. This right here is Control, attired in suitible form
so as to be able to grace the front of my seasonal thank-you cards. The
render time, however, was atrocious. I will merely say it was over half
a week. I blame it on the individual hairs of the ruff. ;>

P.S. No points for guessing the exact texture and pigment of the red
part of the hat. ;>

They could probably be done using media, not sure how realistic it would
look. I am using individual hairs and fibers for my fly images, even
making a macro to construct feather tips out of many cylinders and
cones. I will probably run out of memory before I run out of processer
power.(I have a 266 G3 with 96MB RAM)
BTW, I have modelled the vise and a spool of thread for my fly tying
desk, as well as a fly box, maybe I will post an update soon.
The floor is interesting...crackle normal?
Will we be seeing Alt and Delete later?

BTW peaking of memory my system performance has greatly improved since I
allocated a permanent 1600 megs for swap at the start of the second partition.
I can't remember who told me to do it though.

Hrm; media is an interesting idea. The scary thing is it _would_ be faster.
I never though the day would come..
As to the render speed, methinks the real culprit is my CPU; I've got 128MB
RAM and 400mhz, but in an AMD K6-3, so there go the floating point
calculations.. O for a better processor!
> The floor is interesting...crackle normal?
Bingo. normal {crackle bump_size 2 scale 1/20}
> Will we be seeing Alt and Delete later?
Depends how many copious free processor cycles I have.. ;>

1600M seems a bit overkill to me... Unless you wanted to
say 160M?

Very convincing textures! Especially the fur, it's the best I've seen
sofar. Individual hairs? Hmm...

Nope, 1600 Megs. If I run of of disk I can always decrease it, but in light of my
recent spiral forest I like to be certain *anything* will have enough room...

Hi,
Cool image! Do you know what the ruff reminds me of? The fur on the polar
bears in the CocaCola ads. Very cool!
