Still having fun with Chris's fur tutorial. Figured I'd try it on this bird.

..hehe very nice. With this smudge technique you can paint fur on all photos/objects:

It's not that long, it takes maybe half hour, fourtyfive if you rrrreallly want to fluff it out good maybe? I was chatting with friends in im's so I didn't check time. Someone sent me a cartoon of a bird that got fluffed by fabric softener and I was like...CAN DO!

@CHris: I'd totally drive a fuzzy car like that. There's this guy here in the US somewhere that planted a lawn on his VW Beetle. Maybe you should gimp a lawn on a car next.

sparrow looks like he just had a blow dry

ek22: really cute

! i agree with akky about the blow drying - maybe even a blow-dry with a hint of teasing and hair spray...
