Any other suggestions? I was thinking a few simple marks.

Post by: AdamAtomic on May 15, 2008, 04:01:32 am: this is a pretty good start! his fur should be 1-2 pixels long at most, those long strands look very odd.The brightest color in the piece if only what, 50% bright? You definitely need more range than that!

Post by: TrevoriuS on May 15, 2008, 01:42:07 pm: You could however, make the fur 'layered' as if it was 'cartoon shaded' - so you just shade it like a smooth skin, without dithering, and then add a sawtooth like edge (which should look natural above all) to simulate fur. It will look about as long as it does now, but with premises that make it convincing.
