I just gave it a try and made my mountains - so far so good (Tutorial Here ) Although it's just started today, I figured I'd share my technique with whomever wants to look at it. If the slideshow link doesn't work for you, just click the webshots link below in the signature block area. There should be a narrative on each picture describing what I did - and BE SURE to push the play button once the slideshow opens Enjoy [ 28. September 2003, 02:02: Message edited by: nscale_lover ]
