Interesting modeling, looking forward to seeing it textured and used in an project of some kind.

Heya, i found the bump mat viewer,
but i can t draw wrinkles, it just bump the polys, so its kinda strange...
How can i push/pull like the draw tool, but in really small portions? Like for the monkey on the pic before...
thx, i hope you understood me, although my english is baaad
Bye

thx to let me know what d'you think about it...

To use the bump viewer material most effectively, you should create a fairly high resolution texture, and paint it in Texture Master (with the bump viewer material applied).

Otherwise, the detail you add will never exceed what you could have done without the bump viewer material.

Does this make any sense?

The bump map you create is resolution dependant, and without specifying any texture dimensions, you're effectively working with one pixel per polgon. You want more than that.

Hi Ryu your model is working very well, you can in small portion of the model fine details if:
1.-In the transform palette you add noise to your draw brush
2.-You make small mask portion, inverse and then pull/push a little bit with small draw size or in that area you can add noise
3.-You can use alpha and dragrect with Zadd or Zsub and add this way folds to your model
4.-Increase tha H and Vdivide(High Polimesh) you can also manipulate in detailed way specific areas.

But I suggest to way for the expert team...be sure they have the autorized response.

Congratulations
ps:if you have a script or tutorial of your work i will appreciate, your modeling touch is fantastic and I want to learn bromyou, if it possible.

[Ryu]

Thx everyone for the kind words !!
andreseloy, could explain a little more about the number 3 and 4 way?
Concerning the zscript, i don't have one of this, but it's really too much from someone like you!! i m so glad you like the img I'll make a script of my future work...
Ctrl-Z, thx a lot, i effectively didn't realize that, so now i'll be able to really use this mat...But once the bump made, if a change of mat, will i keep the bump?

Thx again everyone, and cya soon with more brushhhhhing
