Looks like you used live trace.
i took a photo of gravel and used live trace to make a one-colour texture object from it, but otherwise it's all hand drawn and the textures were built up in layers.

Once again, I assure you that i only used live trace to create a black and white texture object from a photo of gravel. I don't appreciate the implication that i've cheated somehow.

using live trace is not cheating - its saving time - who cares if you save time - its smart, thats the beauty of technology

your last few subs with textures have been great - i almost wish there was something different in the light bulb though

you know.. a lot of people on here are saying that Leon used Live Trace...

however, you can tell by the fine detailing and delicate texturing that he made this in Mario Paint... probably using the Power Glove.

Congrats on the score, Leon!

Careful what you wish for, because if you wish you were a butterfly stuck in a lightbulb, and it came true, that would suck.
