I only created that brush specifically for it to be messy - the general technique would work for any of the "wall" blood sprays and runs, as well as on objects - you can paint it dripping off of objects to the ground or on another surface. You can make a cleaner brush for generically running blood, or one that's really spread wide for a loose "splat" kinda thing for the gunshot splatter, and paint more concentrated in the middle/epicenter. Yeah, the blood pooling directly on the ground is harder to do. What program are you using - Vue? Bryce? Poser? If it's Vue, you could create an Alpha Plane with a painting of blood for the "color", and copy the image to use as the "alpha" so it remains just the painted pool. Rotate it 90 degrees to be flat to the ground, and click the "drop" icon to have it rest directly on the next lower surface (in this case the ground). I can't remember if Bryce's "drop" does it to the next surface or takes it all the way down to ground level regardless of what it passes. And I have NO idea how to do that in Poser but there must be a way. Either way, you could do the same in those and "lay" it on the ground surface. Good luck- -Lew ;-)
