Ronen Bekerman has a great short tutorial on using the Hair & Fur modifiers in 3d Studio Max.  Based on his use of the modifier on a “furry chair” from a previous image, he writes up how he did with with full screenshots and details.

In my 3d interior visualization scene ‘Bedroom Concept’ I had one chair with fur which many people asked me to write a small tutorial about. Here I will try to explain the process of making it using 3D Studio Max internal Hair & Fur modifier.

I used poly modeling techniques for creating the chair, but I won’t elaborate on that any further since I’m focusing on the use of the Hair & Fur modifier I applied on the chair after I finished it’s modeling.
