Ostrov - Game Characters

[ChristophS]

I am currently working on some characters for a school project. Recently I've been trying to make some creatures.
These creatures were designed to have short fur but I am not sure what would be the best way to get this effect.

this was my first attempt:


There the fur is entirely in the texture but I'm thinking it might be better to include some of the short fur in the initial sculpt.
Does anyone know a good process for creating short fur in zbrush.

I also started working on one of the human characters in the game. I could use some feedback on this one. Especially for the face and shirt.
I'm thinking this still needs a good bit of work.
