ICM, "have you done any mask rendering and layer the image together in a 2D application?" Yeah, like I said, PaintShop. "If not that method, you might also try a space image Mat on a booleaned sphere for your space enviroment." Booleaned Sphere??? Huh? "If you're interested I can put together a couple of different ways to make sky/space backdrop." I certainly am, I'm always interested in different ways of doing things. Tell on! pakled, I do have a cold, but I don't feel bad enough to throw up spaghetti - yet. gg Still, nice to be lumped together with "some of the best artists" however remotely.
