Quote - What do you suggest rather than Blinn? just a specular node? or maybe just resorting to the built-in Specular?
The hair node. It has the only specular that works moderately correctly with the billboards.
Quote - Any idea at all how to optimize either version to allow spec-only direct lights without having that degree of artifacts?
No. In fact I get those artifacts even with direct light.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
