Into the wild

Really pretty, but do tell, how did you get that fur to render so finely? Is this an insanely high poly model?

The models, with fur, are quite large indeed. Momma Bear is about 890MB (exported as .OBJ from DAZ Studio+Look at my Hair plugin).
Look at my Hair allows to export strands and set the root/tip width of those; so I usually export root/tip with a ratio of 2:1, so that with antialiasing, from distance, they look very thin and "fluffy".

Thanks for responding. Yes, that qualifies as insanely high poly . Looks great, probably the best fur I have seen rendered in TG. I guess for a single model (or two) with enough RAM in the rig it is still manageable depending on what else is in the scene.

Insanely high poly?

Yeah!! that one completely blew my mind.

Yeah, that one was even more awesome. Viewed quite a few times as well

Right. You are definitely pushing the limits. Great that TG can handle it in any case. The more realism (in objects) the better.

Oh man. This should be an animation! This is a movie, its just not moving yet.
