Does anyone know the best way to make skin perspiration (besides exercise I mean) eg using photoshop on a texture or bump map. I already know about making the highlight lighter in the materials editor and also about using the plastic wrap filter on photoshop. but I would like to get that same look that colm achieved with his beach baby texture on the runtime dna website. I don't have poser 5. I just have poser 4. Love esther
I aim to update it about once a month. Oh, and it's free!

Try this http://www.renderosity.com/homepage.ez?Who=dalinise. It's for tears but might be adaptable.I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

Colm took pics of her with oil on her skin. So unless you do that you won't get the same look. 8^) Marque

Don't know what to tell you, It is real easy in p5 using the anisotropic node, an effect like this usually requires raytracing. Good luck. Christian

I think a combination of a bright and small-ish highlight and a strong bump map produces pretty good sweat right in Poser. Then you could deform a few spheres and make them transparent and shiny to be sweat drops. Just a few, strategically placed to sell the illusion.

Anisotropic node? Could you offer an example?

I havn't used it in P5. But there is a similar Shader in Truespace. What it does basically is changes the way an objects reflectance or specularity looks from different angles. I'm not sure how this would apply to sweat though. and if the P5 shader is anything like The TS one It probably increases render times substantially.

I used the anisotropic node on the barbarian skin (with some post work) and on volptuous Koshini's skin under her shower. It is a Poser 5 feature. As you see, it is better for simulating wet skinned seen from afar. With a little tweaking, you can get better results (see the tutorial on CL's site) http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=409242&Start=1&Sectionid=0&filter_genre_id=0&Form.Se http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?Form.ShowMessage=1267460

Although it was more for a "just-outta-the-water" wet look, we got some nice effects using bumpmaps & highlights in this thread: http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?ForumID=12356&Form.ShowMessage=994739Irish posted Thu, 05 June 2003 at 5:34 PM

Thanks for all that. I would buy beach baby for V3 like a shot, only Colm doesn't sell the dry one for V3, and my V3 can't go around wet all day every day. I wish I had the texture converting thingy but they don't make it for a mac. Love Esther
