Mesh painting

Yes Plot Paris

The 'Texture Spray' method you describe could work like the 'clone' option in Photoshop.
Point the area of a photo you want to clone from and then spray it (various strenghts and opacity) to the textured 3D geometry. Awesome idea !

a great idea.
quite handy would be a small thumbnail of the spraytexture (something like this...)
a checkbox to only use the texture spray on a specific material (or more precisely: on faces that are coloured in a specific material). thus you could for example apply rust only to faces with car paint, but dirt on top of everything...
of course you could use different brushes similar to photoshop.
another very interesting option would be a function that increases the spray pressure in corners and hollows, because rust and dirt will concentrate in this places of an object (in places where water is gathering easily...)
and of course we needed an eraser tool to reduce the texture opacity in places.

@Plot Paris how did you come up with that picture?
P.S. what tool is that one with the Homer Simpson on it?

Wow. That would be fantastic. Awesome simulation of how it could work!!!
you always seem to have a good eye on these things .
Google, are you watching this? ... -

Ray, that's the famous Homer Button!

Thx lol

A Mesh Painter would be GREAT!!!!

I thought the Homer button was the button to get you a beer?
Excellent simulation, Plot-Paris do you work on interface designs?
If not you should. Google, just hire this guy he's got it on lockdown.Jim has all kinds of cool stuff over at his site, i check it out a couple times a week.

oh, cheffey, I am flattered
no, I am not working as interface designer (if I would, I would redesign SketchUp to look like the iPhone
). I am a mere student, currently working in london.my only goal is to give our beloved Ruby Gods ideas for their amazing plugins (well, if the Google guys were inspired by it and we find some nice new tools in SU7, I won't complain
)
