I've been experimenting with simulating murals painted on a brick wall with displacement maps in Elements. I think it would be handy for "selling" your image as well as making a more realistic looking maquette on computers. Besides which it's kind of fun. [Smile]

If you look in the "window" of the mural . . . "there's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowing down to take a look at me . . ."

Likes the effect indeed, and when it is painted on a brick wall it sure gives a business a beautiful image way better then panels on a brick.

Hi Kelly,

That looks great and yes clients would love it!
Where did you get those images I would love a copy to study if that's possible.

Thanks Bruce, the images are Cigar Labels that I copied from the internet. A few years ago I had some health issues and was having trouble sleeping at night, so I have quite a collection. I can send you a copy of these but they aren't a high resolution.

I thought they were and just googled cigar labels to find lots of beautiful layouts and styles. Thanks for offering I am set with the internet sources but that butterfly one really has my eye.

Somehow, "Croaker" seems to be a fitting name for a tobacco related product...
