aight it's 2am. time to sleep I'd say. Here's a look at the fur model when it's not.. furry.. Sonic Team used vertex colours to determine fur direction and vertex alphas to determine fur height. you can see how the model is displaced on the in-game screens I posted earlier.
movie sonic from sonic dash.. model looks interesting - would fit a modern game much more than the facebook AR model seeing as it's more stylised. I'll still be using the AR model for the 06 mod though.
