N2 - Feathers, like hair and fur, dramatically alter the appearance of a surface. However, unlike hair and fur, feathers have a wide range of colours and patterns and a well-defined branching structure. The variety of individual feather structures and patterns contribute to the surface appearance. Thus, it is important to model the complete range of feather types found in a feather coat. Since a feather coat can consist of thousands of structurally unique feathers, it is desirable to automatically generate most of the feathers, while maintaining intuitive control over the coat design and the creation of a wide variety of feather types. Previous work on feathers [Dai et al. 1995] does not address the intuitive generation of such a coat.
