Here's a new version of my weathered brick. Each face of the brick is a
separate mesh2 object, and the surface displacement is now radial rather
than perpendicular, so it can handle quite deep texturing in conjunction
with quite sharp corners / edges (unlike the previous).

Parsed in 54s, rendered in 11s on an aging 0.9GHz AMD with a mere 128MB RAM.

Should come in handy...

Nice work, I like it. I hope you post the macro/functions sometime :)

Hmmm..... Do some more work, and you produce a dry cheese, something like 
original Italian Parmesano cheese. Actually, it is just a question of the 
texture and color, I think   :-)

But in any way, good and interesting work!
