Now there's something I hadn't thought of. I could just take some
pictures of plates and thus collect all the characters and define a
height_field for each. Thanks for the idea.

I saw a green/purple version of this, looked stunning.

Hi all!
Dunno who it was, but I saw very interesting metallic car painting a year
ago or so, maybe more. It was rendered in MLpov, the paint colour was
AOI-dependent. Moreover there were some fine metal particles visible in the
coat. Tried to search the POV-Ray Newsgroup to no avail. There was also
quite nice animation - the futuristic car speeding through the city. I
thought that stunning procedural paint would look cool with this magnificent
piece of model. Does anybody remember that thread and possibly give a hint?
Excellent modelling Jaime

All right, many thanks.

Erk? Gotta play around some with this...
I thought from some way back discussions in these newsgroups that finishes
in layered textures always ended up being the last one used.
I've been making layered textures with a finish only on one texture. You
mean that I could have been layering finishes too?

It has room for a lot of playing... depending on the colors to mix,
you will need to adjust the specular and the transmit values.

No, that was normals. The tutorial even warns about not confusing it
with finishes... :)

Hmmm.... yes, sorry... ;) (I've suffered such "subconscious
assumptions" sometimes, even with the most obvious things).

The only thing I found was Tek metallic paint macro, searching for
pov+metallic+paint. Thanks for the hint: I had borrowed some bits from
Tek approach.

Thank you very much, Jaime. Now I have a very beautiful metallic texture
for my big truk. :)

Wow! I'm glad to have contributed to that ambitious project: the
level of detail is amazing! I will have to ask you for help when
designing my first truck (I would like to do a "busy freeway" scene in
the future).

I think these paintings are called "pearlescent" or "luster"
paintings. Some car manufacturers call them "mica" where mica
is a low refractive index material used for one of the two
or three layers these paintings have.
