Currently I am working on a scene with an old house, part of which is covered with plaster, the other is exposed brickwork, therefore two bump types are required in one texture. I had a number of ideas of how to do this in the Node Editor of Lightwave 9.6, however they where all pretty much useless. After a lot of frustration and searching the internet with no success I had a final try and got it to work.
Below is the method which I used, it probably isnt the most elegant method, but it works.
Firstly I will start with a cube.

As part of the MSc course im taking our group is creating a museum space with a ubiquitous computing suprise!
I am currently creating a cgi environment to help put accross our ideas in context.

This is the first frame of a 100 frame animation, all the work here is being done in Lightwave 9.6
keen viewers may recognise some models in this museum

House modelled in Lightwave 9.6, image rendered in Vue 7. This was my first attempt at using depth of field in vue, I am rather pleased with the results.

Finished the drivetrain, added another boiler to the top of the tank, more pipes and more details to the tank.

Still to do the wheels today, perhaps tweak the drivetrain slightly, the final boiler, whistle assembly and some valve areas toward the back.

Worked on the runners for the rest of the day, part of this involved first tyring to learn how they work and then model them accordingly

Still needs lots more work on the shape and adding all the small details, but for now i’m happy to have the main shapes present and in the right places.
The wheels are only roughouts at present, better more detailed ones will be done later.
