Very nice :)....I hope you have that all set up with IK :) I really like your textures...you make them all or do you have them pre-made? I have found that I do like to make proceedures I just dont have time...most all my stuff is just the basics. ONce renderosity gets its act together and the store works I will probably go buy Clints shader pack.

Yeah, nice job on the mailbox, I think the flag is oriented the wrong way tho. Brent, i bought it, its going to serve as the basis for many new shaders as well as being used often as is, certainly worth more than $24 Z

I make many of my textures, or modify stock ones. The galvanized steel is modified from the brushed aluminum stock texture. I replaced the image map with Eric Winemiller's noise procedural element. I really love Eric's shader elements. (Check out Digital Carver's Guild -- digitalcarversguild.com -- they're free! and he has some cool stuff for purchase) The flag might be wrong, but it's how I remember it from the mailbox when I was a kid living in the middle of nowhere....
