question about the application of the Fur material

[mattwilsonVelatura]

I began playing with applying Vray Fur to a surface and noticed that the fur strands appeared to be getting their shading from the growth surface itself (in this case a sss2). The only option I could find that worked to apply the VrayFur material to the strands was to duplicate the growth surface and apply the material to that surface, which fortunately was hidden within the main due to displacement.

Is this the method, or is there some way to attach the material directly to the fur itself?

If not are there any doc pages anywhere on working with the fur materials?

thanks,
Matt

Hi mattwilsonVelatura,

You can apply a material directly onto the fur strands to make a separate shading for them.
