Tennis Ball Fur improvement?

[eldee]

at first glance it seems a little too 'combed'. the length looks about right, maybe a tiny bit on the long side, but it seems too directional in places.

Wow! It looks great! Length seems fine, but I don't think it's curly enough. Tennis balls have a very tangled look to them. Maybe if you can get the little hairs to be more curly?

Thats a good looking texture, How did you do it?:thumbsup:

i'd have to disagree here Eldee and say this actually adds to the realism if it's a used tennis ball as the fibers would be flat in areas from constant forcefull contact with the court.

Thanks for all the input fellas... I'm going for a new tennis ball, so it hasn't been forced or matted down at all. Once I get this down I'll probably do a used one as well.

I'll try scraggling it up some. I think the length is +\- a point or two..

Thanks again. Big help. :)

I think this would hold up under most circumstances/animations. CC welcome as always :)
