I don't know how you did this, but this is the best computer-generated
hair I've seen second only to Final Reality (the movie).

Final Fantasy, perhaps?  Actually the hair I'm using is pretty cheap,
it needs tweaking yet, I doubt it'd hold up to a close-up.

It's Kozaburo's Alice hair, right? Kozaburo's hair holds up quite nicely in
close-up :)

I think Kozaburo has a photoshop tutorial about painting hair on his site.

It might hold up nicely in close-up, but probably not just dumped
directly over from Poser with no correcting of the texture's
properties inside of POV...as it is I already did some tweaking,
but will go in later and see how much better I can make it.  I
think one thing I did that makes it look better is using a bump
map (which I just slapped the texture map on as a bump map too).

That, too :)

I'd really appreciate some insights into how you did it anyway, if you
feel like putting up the time to do that.
