Hi Shawn - What I discovered is that different methods work on different figures. A lot of it depends on the bump maps. Some figures do not have any maps while if you use certain materials for changing the skin, etc. they make use of maps in all sizes. What you are describing works nicely on some figures, but on others working with the bump maps themselves gives better results. I have been experimenting with Victoria 4 and 4.2 and various Skin materials.
