I didn't want to just put water on it this time.

# Hey
will you point me toward that displacement map tutorial you used please?

# Of course :)

# Ah, got it. Ok, thanks :)
I've made floors (and a few skies) using a similar method, but I didn't use them as displacement maps at the end.

Edit: No, I just mean generally really. I wanted to know if I was missing a trick basically. There are always other ways to do stuff. It's pretty much the method I've used before though.

# Yeah
to be brutally honest with you, I've never really understood what this is. The reflection's great though :)

# It's a robot bear.
The clue's in the filename.
But it didn't work well and I gave up on it, so I thought "Fuck it. I'll just cut its head off and reflect it". So I did.

# That sounds like something that could go into a Hawkwind song.
With the tune/speed of either Damnation Alley or Urban Guerilla.

And I envision it more as a Space Ritual-style space-poem
