Dalek's funny? Careful - that's fighting talk that is! :-)
Many thanks for your comments. I've actioned the changes to the tweezers
and the big brush you mention and it makes a big difference, thanks for
those.
To answer your other questions, the lighting is just one all-encompassing
IBL. The tube was quite easy. It's just a cylinder that's been swept a few
times and the sections resized to give the right shape. I used UVCow (fast
becoming my new best friend!) to set the UV and apply the texture and then
applied SDS to the top unsquished bit. I then used Wiggledy from CP2 on the
'squished area'. This area has a bump map of random blobs and squiggles
applied to give the creasing. To enhance the effect I also repainted that
section only with Faceted selected in the Material Editor to give more
defined edges. Hope that makes sense.
Best wishes
Kate
