Looking For Fur

I'm looking for a fur shader, but I'd rather not buy one from the asset store because I'm not sure whether I can even finish the game that needs it. Are there any free ones available, or any other tips for getting an obscuring cloud of hair to cover a simple body?

 

The basic idea of Fur(or grass) is simply over drawing the same semi transparent texture as layers and it will give you the illusion.
Here is a very old post about how to do grass, you can alter the shader to act like fur easily.

I'd love to use that for a fur shader, but the shader gives the error "incorrect number of arguments to numeric-type constructor".

 

Well, its an old shader. You should write something new from scratch, and the math in that shader can help you with the fur part.
