Two Questions about Lahr the Lion

I just picked up Lahr the Lion HD for Genesis 9 (on a really good sale!), and I have a couple of questions.  

First, is there any way to change the opacity of the body fur?  It's rather thin and transparent, I'd like to make it thicker/less see-through.  Opacity slider is already at 100%, so that doesn't help. 

Second, I would really like to make his hands and feet more paw-like.  I don't see any morph packs yet that have creature morphs, but I'm wondering if I missed something.  Are there any characters or packs that have geoshells geographs for that, or morphs?  Either one would be fine.

Bonus question that isn't really that important, but I'm kind of curious:  If I have him, is there really any reason to get Niketa the Lioness HD for Genesis 9?  If I remove the mane, and dial the body to a female one, is there really any difference?  I can't see any, but once again I may be missing something.

    First, a quick way is that you may increase Additional PR Hairs Density (cm^2) property on Fur surfaces, as well as PS / PR Hair Seed. As for the color, add some yellowish to Hair root... (screenshot 1 ~ 2)

    Second, as he's a sort of lion-man, I presume the hands / feet are not that paw-like in the original design. I found no dedicated morph with the product either. However, if you know how to sculpt (in Blender , ZB...), you can make it yourself. If you own some characters from OSO, some toe/claw morphs could be also used on Lahr Lion. Well, a geoshell should not be related to this sort of paw morphs...

    Bonus, Niketa is a Lioness with characteristics of "female" with its original design (head / face shape, hair, fur, skin texture... etc. ). Technically you certainly can do what you mentioned but it's just not a Niketa, IMO..So, it's up to you loh...cool

    Oh, that looks much better in your screenshots!  Thank you! Now I know which settings to play with.  And I don't know why I typed geoshell, I meant geograph, lol!  At least I think that's what I mean, where you add things like wings and tails and stuff to the figure (I have Covid brain right now, remembering things is really hard XD)

    And I didn't notice that she had different materials, but that makes sense.  And you are right, her head shape is a bit different.  So I guess it would add some variety and individualization to the lion family to have both.  I think I'll be alright for my needs, though.

    Thank you so much for your help!!!

    I didn't notice that before, that might be just what I need.  I'll keep an eye on that product to see if it goes on sale, that could be really useful for a lot of things!  Thank you for your help!!!
