I was doing a layout for a product photo-shoot & my customer "may" want to go with this comp instead. My main problem is with the cheesy looking net, can't seem to get a fairly realistic chord. I tried making the spline into a mesh & added thickness to it but the texture just maps to the outside & inside faces of the "net" with nothing in-between. Besides, it would still look like square roap. I'm not about to do this as individual strands of roap unless someone knows an easy way. Any suggestions? If not, it's back to the photo studio!
