# Velvet Fur Comb: motion graphics style

> Fur text effect: the word is magenta plush made of thousands of strands. The cursor combs the nap like a fingertip on velvet, leaving lighter trails that settle back. Ideal as an interactive, animated website hero title for tactile brands.

## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Make [TEXT] out of dense magenta plush fur on a dark plum velvet background: thousands of short strands with fuzzy edges and a soft drop shadow, all combed in the same direction so the letters look evenly dark and rich. The fur behaves like velvet: brushing the nap against the grain makes it lighter and pinker, with the strands leaning along the stroke. At rest an invisible fingertip drifts slowly over the word, drawing faint lighter trails that settle back. On hover the pointer becomes the fingertip, combing a wider path whose strands lean harder for faster strokes, and the brushed trails slowly relax back to the resting nap over a few seconds. A press ruffles a patch into tousled strands that catch the light. On touch screens the finger combs the fur.
```

## Visual DNA

- Thousands of short magenta strands form fuzzy plush letters
- Velvet sheen: any stroke off the resting grain leaves a lighter trail
- Strands lean along the pointer stroke, longer for faster strokes
- Brushed trails settle back to the resting nap over a few seconds
- Press ruffles the fur into a sparkly tousled patch
