The stylized fur shader I use in my animations. You may have seen it on my characters in my videos.

Key Features

• Procedural Shader: The shader itself is fully procedural. Just plug in your own texture, a solid color, or any procedural setup into the Color input and you are ready to go.
• Universal Rendering: Works in both Eevee and Cycles render engines.

What's Included?

You will receive a .zip archive with two files:

1. StylizedFur.blend - The source file featuring Tomas's rigged tail so you can study the setup in context. It includes:

   • "BlendNormals" node group (Geometry Nodes)
   • "StylizedFur" material node group
   • Optional Kuwahara compositing node tree for an "oil painting" look

2. ReadMe.txt - Step-by-step instructions on how to append and apply this shader to your own characters, along with a brief explanation of how the setup works.

System Requirements

• Software: Blender 5.1 (Recommended) or higher.
• Hardware: "Will my PC run this?" If your computer meets the Official Blender System Requirements, you are good to go! (Tip: Fur can be heavy on older systems. The ReadMe includes optimization tips, such as hiding the fur in the viewport while working.)

Important Note for Cycles Users:

Light Tree MUST be disabled in your Render Properties. If Light Tree is enabled, the custom lighting calculations for this shader will not display correctly.
