I already tried that earlier over a large distance and it was distracting, 
but now that you mention it, it may actually work quite well if just the 
distance is very small. I'll try that out.

Yeah, I'll work on that.

Hmm. Brushing metal is something done intentionally to make it look nice, 
right? I don't think that is done to girders (thanks Alain for pointing out 
the word for them), which is what this is supposed to look like. Normally, 
girders are made to support tructures, not to look nice. So I'm trying to 
get a "new, but not polished" look. However, I'm not sure what that is, 
exactly...
