Yeah, I figured that much out. I don't want to go through all of that, but I think I got a pretty good wet dress out of it anyhow. I am running a render and I'll post as soon as I get it done.

The map I made is just a test. I saved all the GIMP files so that I could redo it fairly easy if I am not completely satisfied with how they turn out. But I looked at the render that is about 2/3 of the way to completion, and I like what I am seeing.

I think I may have to include a mask on her skin shader so that the water droplets don't come through the dress and look fake. I would have to remove the water from the cycles shader on her body where the dress is covering her.

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
