Ron stuff, I just read your text/article/tut and I find it fascinating and well written. Wish I'd known this months ago. Thanks also for these examples. The main 3D app I am learning is Cinema4D, and I've arrived at Normalmaps (bump on steroids, based on color info in stead of only greyscale, and something totally different from micro-poly displacement). I hope that MPD will be included n C4D9 (Tomorrow we'll know more...) Mods: I find Ronstuff's article should be added to the mustread articles/tuts on P5. What do you think?

I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now I'll be mad. (Rumi)
