first off, displacement maps are black and white images (like bump maps), map that to displacement map under the shading group (any other questions don't hesitate to ask). also, I had to rush and get this composite in for this showcase at school, so here it is, with the latest divx codec, without it's mouth properly colored, and a simple brownian as a bump. it's already been turned in so it's too late for that, but critiques for the final shot in my movie would be much appreciated

it's a .mov, I guess I forgot to put on the extension...

nope, just my little 4 minute movie titled "The Tyrant"
anyway, here's a new shot I've been working on, kind of an homage to the rex foot coming down in the mud in JP. the squashing of the foot was done with a cluster. tell me what you think! and does anyone have any ideas on how to match the floor reflections...? thanks in advance

the only thing I can think of is if you don't have divx, cuz that's what they're encoded with, or maybe it was 3ivx.... nah, I 'm pretty sure it was divx

ok, here it is with sound, divx codec. I'd also would like to say that with this piece I won Best Visual Effects at the School of Media Arts Showcase at the the local City College. Anyway, here it is!
