These new "Feather Formers" let you define a feather and burn the barb texture in seconds!
Yes, "seconds"!

The throat and head feathers on this hummingbird were burned in less than 4 minutes. Throat feathers are around 250 lines per inch, while the top of the head was burned at 130 lines per inch. There are 60 different Feather Formers available from 40 lines per inch to 250 lines per inch.
