Furry Torus

The furry torus has 1250 hairs, each modelled with a paintstroke whose quality level is automatically adjusted to 0 or 1, depending on the projected screen thickness. The average quality level was approx. 0.3, yielding about ten tessellated polygons per paintstroke. Rendering time at the size shown (256x192) was 12 seconds per frame on a 200 MHz 604e Power Macintosh.
