Thanks for the link, Will . In fact, i knew him ! When i first saw that character, months ago, i remember i said to myself that's one of the 3D characters i've seen who has the more personality . So maybe i've copied without even knowing ... In french we call that "reminiscences" . How do you say in english ? "Vague recollections", says my english/french dictionnary . I'm downloading the movie right now, so i can copy even more :) Ppowellaa, i don't use Anything Grooves yet, but basically i can say it deforms an object with a texture map . Just like a bump map : the bright areas are higher than the dark ones . But, when a bump map doesn't affect the geometry, Anything Grooves does . It creates a new mesh that is your basic mesh deformed by the texture map . So with it, you can add some real wrinkles or spots on a face, for example . But for a face like this, i'd suggest to model the main wrinkles by hand and add the little wrinkles with a bump map . This way, you'll be able to limit the poly weight of the final mesh more easily . litst
