Congratulations on your fame! And remember that to a child, 21 is "old". I've experimented a little with fabrics in 3DS. For a magazine article I wanted to reproduce the loose weave on a skirt of mine, so I inspected the skirt for about an hour and came up with a repeating bump map for 3DS. Then I made a grid and put a little wave through it. Unfortunately when I used the weave on the grid, I got big Moire patterns through it. I made the weave bigger to get rid of the Moire but then it looked like a baby blanket. So I decided to do an article on how to make a baby blanket rather than a skirt. <g> Using 3DS for cloth is an area that's still new. A few people are experimenting with clothing but I haven't seen much in the way of images yet. This is a great opportunity for you to pave the way. Michele
