Description
"The brown hyaena has no long distance calls." - according to hyaenidae.org

Blender 2.66 + Cycles + Gimp

My second image done with Cycles renderer, this time an attempt at outdoor lighting. Originally intended as a picture for April Fool's, but as usual, didn't make it on time. The Cycles renderer brings out all imperfections which were not noticeable under internal rendering. The hair is especially badly affected; I tried to patch it up with some quick hacks. But these took so much time, that would be sufficient for a complete overhaul. Well, it happens... The hair needs an overhaul anyway, not only for the error fixing. The setup is very old and even somehow lost its compatibility with the physical simulation engine. And knowing more about 3D hair in general, I should be able to make vastly improved version.
