GLFurry - an interactive 3D fur modeling system

Modeling and rendering of fur and hair has long attracted the attention of computer graphics researchers. The different approaches to this problem can be broadly classified into categories: geometric and volumetric. The geometric approach models each hair as a geometric primitive (lines, Bezier curves, etc.) while the volumetric approach renders a sample patch and repeatedly apply it to cover the entire surface of the object. We present GLFurry, an interactive system for modeling and rendering fur on 3D objects. The system has 6 main parameters which allow fast generation of many different furry effects
