The more things change, the more they stay the same    

(I think I should start charging royalties for my rendering methods...   )

I've known about it but have no clue how to implement it. (P.O.S. Ts!!!)

[Bobboau]

in the little material reticel (four spheres) the lower right one is displacement, select bump map, then select the map, just like textures.

now I just have to wait for setekh to figure out the layered reflectence.

Here's another one for you... I'm in the mood for a few short thingies.  

[Taristin]

...Cut it out. It's not fair.

Bump-mapping. I just had a go at it last night, and here is what I came up with...

     


Another 10 minute render     I'll use some better lighting on the next one...    

Now you have to make a true bump map, coz there there's also bump on the white drawings and all, and it's wrong

I was in such a hurry I forgot to explain why I made this one. It was a misadventure into trying to implement reflections... it kind of looked like snow, and I played around with it further, and came up with that. Rendered a foggy snow scene, and there you have it.

Get out those de-icers, pilot!  

[Fineus]

I thought you were showing us the textures on that Myrmidon, which look decidedly battle scarred, like something out of Mech Warrior 4 or something. It looks great!

no no no i'm saying i've known how to do the explosions effects for over a month. i've known about bump mapping for way longer.

[Setekh]

Sorry, who are you talking to?  

 

Play of light and shadow is beautiful. And that thing in the bg is meant to be a black hole of sorts...

i was rephrasing my previous statement about knowing how to make those explosion effects (using the photoshop screen option) because snipes thought i was talking about bump mapping.

so in summary: sorry to dissapoint you Steak, but you weren't the first to employ that explosion making Technique.

[Setekh]

What? I did?

I thought it was a galaxy of some sort  
Ok, let's say it's a white hole (someone to imagine how such a thing could work?   )

White holes just spew out stuff  

Don't know much about them, haven't really been interested. Just figured they were black holes working the opposite way, spewing stuff out from a singularity.
