Another interesting use of "hair" is that of creating grass.

These pics show the Poser7 hires prim.plane selected as the hair group and the "hair" colour changed to suit.

Its a great way of making 3D grass and very very quick to render.

The "puppet" I made was for a kiddies show and again the Poser7 hair room came to the rescue with almost believable "straw".

The curly fella was jus for fun and consisted of over 100000 hairs!
Even the opengl card had fun when rotating this in the preview window !!
A normal games card just froze straight away.

Thanks Believable for this thread!!  :)
