I've made a teddy bear in Maya. He's made in Polys. I've bin playing around with Maya Fur and it just doesn't look all that good. So I'm thinking of doing the teddy fur in Paint Effects. However I think you can only make a 'NURB' paintable for paint effects and not a Poly :O

Anyone got any suggestions?

:grin: make the base curl and tip curl values greater than 1, Length=15, Base Curl=10, Tip Curl=5, Scraggle=0.1, and Segments=100. Polar and Inclination are both set to 1.0. This should give you a pretty good teddy bear quality fur. Play with it a bit:wip: The feet seem kind of long to me though. Usually teddy's just have nubs, not real feet. Just an observation. Keep us posted if you figure it out. Oh, and don't forget to enable fur shadows on your lights, that always makes a big difference.

i noticed the feet were kinda big to, but I modelled it according to an actual teddy that i have, he's got big feet :) but then again, if it don't like right - change it.
thanks man :) I'll keep trying with the fur like you said :) if anyone else has suggestions about paint effects or anything then let me know :)
