Since the render time is only a few minutes, I believe that this method is
worth the time in some cases. Your fur has a distinct look from other fur
methods.
The only problem I can see is on the csg items. If you used union, then
merge would probably correct the problem. If you are using merge already,
then the method has a definite flaw.

Sorry, but I can't see the problem. Could you please point me to it.

On your rounded box and rounded cyl I can see the outine of the individual
CSG objects. Might just be an illusion or compression. I'm not sure. I
wonder if a superellipsoid would show the same effect.

I've used merge so I think a superellipsoid would give the same effect.

It really is more velvet than fur; you can tell straightaway.
Incidentally, that edging effect on the rounded objects I think occurs
in real life too. Should check that...
Excellent stuff!

Hey, I didn't even know what fur means. I just saw that all the others were
calling this fur and thought that it would be the right word but now where
I've looked it up I agree with you that it really looks more like velvet and
not fur.

Looks great either as short haired fur or velvet.
I would never have thought of using a negative IOR.
To quote Vroomfondel on this: 'I think our brains must be
to highly trained, Majikthise'
But if the POV developers allows fysically impossible
values, who am I to complain.

If I were you, I'd market your texture as -the- definitive velvet of Povray.
This is really a great texture!

It doesn't look like fur as such, but it's still exelent. It's more like
velvet.

If the rendering time is not above 5 minutes, I'd accept it.. Looks good,
but media is said to be too slow.
