Growing illustrations on a wall
i recently have been seeing illustrations growing on walls in video. for example like a spiral of line strokes that grow out from the bottom of a wall and get bigger, but it looks like its on the wall. if someone could demistify this for me it would be great. i have seen the grow tutorial on creative cow but it doesn’t explain how to make it look like its on a wall in video.

In the 3rd part of his series on Displacement maps, (only at Cow Podcast, not a tut yet, but coming soon, I’m sure):
Displacement Mapping Part 3
(11 min., 39 sec.) — February 17, 2006

Basically he used the “Add” Mode (he has white text, hence the Add) and dropped the transparency to 30%.
Fool around with the mode, one should help your illustration fall into the wall, and a nice little displacement of the wall (see Aharon’s tuts/Pod mentioned above, or click his head for a full listing), will make it seep into every crevice. -
Aharon’s got that 3rd Displacement Map Tut up and running see, above in the forum. Now you can download the .mov and don’t need itunes to view the .m4v files.
