  • rengenerating limbs with a displacement map?

    Hi i just saw the tutorial for underskin bugs using a displacement map. I was wondering if i had a foot or hand shaped mask would i be able to create a limbe effect growing out of the body? so basically instead of bugs crawling underskin, a new limb shape would appear in one place and grow bigger?

    It’s certainly doable using ther same technique but there will be limits as AE is a 2D application. If you keep this is mind when you visualize the effect, you will have a better idea if AE will be able to pull it off or to go to a 3D applicatio nshich is what most professionals use for such effects.
