PhilC, Total genius! Worked like a charm. Took me longer to find the Patchwork Filter than it did to make a chicken-wire image. LOL. I don't remember ever noticing it before. All it needed was a bit of Unsharpen and it looks perfect. Well, great.... now I can give my neighbor back her mesh and the hens will be safe from foxes again. Thanks mac PS Yes, TCSP. For rendering in poser. That's the next thing. To see how it looks.
