The Mecabricks material system upgrade includes the possibility to assign some sort of roughness values to each element. Rendered images are much more accurate to real life parts however it will take some time before all pieces are assessed one by one.
New Images done for Code, really great to work with this guys!

The semi-nocturnal, furtive movements of the early morning landscape photographer are often fraught with unlikely hazards. In the equally unlikely (ok - make that massively improbable) event that a film were made of the same, the opening certification would warn of scenes containing mild peril. Some of you, the audience, would scoff at this odd declaration - yet those of you who tread before dawn in search of the photogenic know it to be true. In point of fact, this mild peril often starts even before leaving the house...
Picture the following if you will.
Having spent an enjoyable first day's holiday with my wife, inlaws and her grandad somewhere in Wales, yours truly is itching to get out and explore what delights there are to tempt that lens. Late that afternoon, under a flimsy pretence of 'getting some air', I head out in my wife's car (cheaper than mine to run while away although as it's a Beetle Cabriolet there's barely room to pack camera gear, let alone non-essentials like clothes) to scout the area. Painfully aware there's a curfew in place for my return to enable us all to go out for dinner, I nevertheless discover a couple of locations that validate my previous research. Ashamedly, I'm unable to resist rattling off a few test images, and as a result arrive back at our holiday cottage later than agreed only to be met by my wife standing in the doorway slowly tapping a rolling pin in the palm of her open hand. Never have I felt such kinship with Andy Capp... I take in this harmonious scene of domesticity as I hurriedly pull up alongside the front wall to the cottage, before cursing as I have to scramble across the car's interior and out through the passenger door (despite Beetle Cabriolet's having infinitesimally tiny boots, they have gigantic doors impossible to extricate yourself through unless you're parked several yards away from any solid objects. Walls are pretty solid).
Having had a lovely meal and made some plans for the next few days together, I decide to head out early the next morning to do some shooting - figuring I can either be back before anyone else is really up and with it, or else arrange to meet up with them once they head out in my father-in-law's car. This plan becomes even more promising once I realise fog is forecast for the early hours, coinciding with high tide...
10.30pm and I'm off too bed so as to be up for 4.45am.
12.00 midnight and I'm lying awake, unable to sleep and filled with anticipation at the prospect of photographing my ideal conditions in a completely new location. Yes, I really do get that excited!
2.30am and I'm wondering if perhaps I had dropped off at some point. Surely I couldn't have really been laid awake for four hours listening to the settling sounds of an unfamiliar house at night?
4.45am and my alarm goes off. Judging by my initial fuzziness I must have laid awake for at least four hours listening to the settling sounds of an unfamiliar house at night. However, it takes only moments for my enthusiasm to take over and I'm stabbing quickly at the off button on my alarm so as not to wake anyone else.
Casting aside the duvet, for once grateful that all holiday homes seem to have single beds - there's less chance of disturbing my wife as I push myself from the mattress. My first footfall on the bare wooden floorboards sends a creak through the room, and I remember the unequivocal natural law that states all sounds occurring before dawn shall automatically be multiplied by the power of ten in relation to their day time counterparts. It's right up there with the one about that tree falling in a forrest somewhere with nobody to hear it... Tentatively sneaking across the room by the glow of my phone's screen, testing each board before laying my full weight on it I remember I have a whole room, landing, double staircase and hallway to cross like this. There might as well have been tacks on the floor. There lay the problem with the cottage we were staying in, rustic and full of character charm it may have been, complete with quaint paraphernalia guaranteed to enhance your stay, yet not a silent carpet anywhere to be found. Reaching the clothes I'd laid out I quickly pulled them on (marvelling at how much noise an innocuous sock can make and ruefully aware I could quite possibly be putting my t-shirt on back to front), I try to ascertain whether opening the door quickly or slowly will render the least sound. I try both ways. One causes my wife to moan and turn in her bed. The other causes her to moan and turn the other way. Reaching the landing, I creep hesitantly the half mile to the bathroom, pausing with one foot raised upon hearing halted snoring emanate from one of the bedrooms. It picks up unabated, and I thread my way on to the sink, where I ease the tap slightly open and listen as Niagara Falls splashes into my cupped hands and waiting face. Wash complete, I remember to leave my electric toothbrush off as I brush (clever lad I am), before knocking the toothpaste tube over - it heads to the floor in slow motion and I break it's fall on the stone slate with my foot, flicking it back to an upright position in the cabinet as I mop a bead of perspiration from my furrowed brow. Ok, I lied about the last part. I don't perspire.
Twenty minutes later and I'm congratulating myself as I head through the front door, shoes clasped in one hand as I ease it closed behind me. The fog really is thick, I can see it eddying about the occasional street lamp and the air has that curiously leaden, heavy taste about it that only comes with such atmospherics. Slipping on my footwear and metaphorically rubbing my hands with glee, I press the keyfob to unlock the car and cross to the passenger door remembering the wall blocking the driver's side. Sliding my gear on to the back seat (not wanting to be fooled by the Beetle Cabriolet's infinitessimally tiny boot), I slide in and over the passenger seat, ready to slowly drive off and leave everyone none the wiser in their beds.
Suddenly, the car alarm sounds. Lights flash blindingly reflecting from the metallic surfaces of other cars nearby, while the horn triggers deafeningly as I freeze in disbelief just as I'm falling into the driver's seat. Stabbing again at the unlock button on the keyfob I manage to deactivate everything and drive off hurriedly, laughing to myself at the ridiculousness of it all. Some thirty minutes later, setting up ready for this shot, I remember if entering the car by any other than the driver's door the alarm is only deactivated if you depress the fob twice.
Scenes of mild peril - just as I told you.
On a separate note, I'm pleased to have received an Honourable Mention in the International Photography Awards for my entry 'Sand, Sea & Silence', a set of five related images.

When this moment unfolded we were rendered speechless, and this photograph cannot hope to do justice to the show put on by the heavens in this moment. Right at sunset the northern sky turned this magnificent lavender color that was otherworldly beautiful like nothing I'd ever seen. I promise this isn't manipulated or oversaturated and if anything it is less vibrant than what it looked like to the eye in real time.
This panoramic view taken from Skyline Drive looks down upon on Saint Louis Bay and the busy Twin Ports of Duluth and Superior. The bright incandescent bulbs pierce the gathering darkness as a Proctor Yard crew starts up the ramp to Collingwood with a load of limestone they picked up from CN-Hallet Dock 5 as seen in this shot captured only twenty minutes earlier: flic.kr/p/2pdwX8o The train is led by a pair of rebuilt tunnel motors bracketing an SD40-2, BLE 903, IC 6261, and DMIR 408 all in CN dress.
Across the bay can be seen the General Mills and CHS elevators, and then seven miles to the east jutting out into the water are the massive ex Great Northern Railway ore docks and present day BNSF's Allouez docks. At left center is the real prize in this photo, the Queen of the Lake, the mighty MV Paul R. Tregurtha at 1013.5 ft the largest vessel currently sailing on the Great Lakes. Launched in February 1981 as MV William J. De Lancey, she was the last of the thirteen 'thousand footers' to enter service on the Great Lakes, and was also the last Great Lakes vessel built at the American Ship Building Company yard in Lorain, Ohio. The MV Paul R. Tregurtha is the current flagship of the Interlake Steamship Company's ten vessel fleet.
We watched her stream into the bay beneath the John A. Blatnik Bridge and then spin herself around entirely unassisted. She is now backing into position to tied up at the Midwest Energy Resources Terminal where she will take on a load of coal and depart the following day for St. Clair and Monroe, Michigan.

Corner eaves tile with Achelous’ head.
Achelous was the god of the river Achelous in Acarnania in western Greece, to-day called Aspropotamos, which was the greatest, and according to tradition, the most ancient among the rivers of Greece. He with 3000 brother-rivers is described as a son of Oceanus and Thetys (Hes. Theog. 340), or of Oceanus and Gaea, or lastly of Helios and Gaea. He was animated in various animal and human guises in literature and was usually rendered
as a bull with a human face in art.
Achelous was a competitor with Heracles in the suit for Deianeira (Sophocles, Trachiniae 507–30), and fought with him for the bride

ps - yes, it transforms.
This is Rock Cruiser. When The Kestrel came to Rock Homeworlds, they meet Rockmen assault ship that hailed them. It seems that Rockmen want to help but they will help only to those who are worthy. So The Kestrel's Crew was invited to a challenging fight. After wisely damaging several systemless rooms, Rockmen surrendered and considered The Kestrel's crewmen worthy of their help. And that's why Federation received blueprints of one of the toughest, bulkiest, most badass ships in the known universe.
