What you'll learn

In this Maya tutorial we will explore the Maya Fur menu set and all of the advanced features tucked away in them. We will learn things like how to control your render settings, shadows, use the Maya Hair system to add dynamics as well as how to render fur using mental ray. This is a perfect course for those of you using fur in production and want a refresher on the different menus as well as those of you touching Maya Fur for the first time. This is a second part of a two part Maya tutorial. We'll build upon what we covered in the first tutorial. You are welcome to start here but I would recommend you complete the first course as a pre-requisite. Software required: Maya 2010 and up.
