That would make a perfect jewelry box. Can't tell without a pic, but this
may look better in a close up than other fur textures.

No, it renders quite fast and gives acceptable results even with the default
media settings but there is still a difference between a few seconds and a
few minutes.

Perhaps I'll make one :-)

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.
