The hair worked better than hair had been done before, and even then, they took the easy route out by making the hair black. Hair is incredibly difficult to model. Fur isn't *as* difficult - see "Stuart Little" for confirmation. Pila cilia as in Lenagh's illustration ougtn't be anywhere near as difficult as hair. In theory, it could be done. In practice, I'm not the one to do it, so I can't say totally for certain. :) Julia _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
