@n647 Your character is turning out wonderfully! The lighting looks nice, the fur looks nice, and the dents/dings in the armor are 👌. Can’t wait to see what you do with this character. My one note is to bump up the contrast a touch: Slightly brighter highlights and slightly darker shadows.
Hoping to see your LM soon.
PS: Yes you can control length of hair particles with weight painting a vertex group. Also with texture.
