I was flipping thru Rudy's Web site yesterday and saw some of his tutorials, very impressed. Then I happened to come across his sun rays one over at 3Dtotal.com. Excellent tutorial but really the thing I got out of it the most was utilizing Photoshop to create deeper, more immersive textures. For those of you that are texture freaks like me and want more realistic-looking images, check it out. I enjoyed the lighting portion too (the main reason for the tut...haha)...very good tips and can't wait to use the techniques. MD
