I'm trying to recreate an archaeological site. This site is a Dolmen, dated from 5.000 BC, which is composed of a narrow passage leading to a burial chamber. In the chamber there are a number of very simple and symbolic black and red paintings. I've worked this paintings in PhotoStyler. I used a Scanner to get the drawings, and then I filled the area with a stone pattern. The problem I'm having, is that in 3D Studio, when rendering, the paintings look like they were made yesterday, not thousands years ago. I tried to used a bump texture, but I only got the stones to look more real, not the paints. How can I get this paintings to look older? Thanks in advance Best regards Alvaro Nobrega
