Making realistic welds

[hellnbak]

I know I read something about this somewhere here but dang if I can remember where.

All I want is a quick and easy method of making realistic welds. Don't ask much, do I.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Yes, I saw something about it too.
The idea I think was to model a simple cove with follow me and apply a texture.

Ah. here is the topic

Yeah, I think that's the thread I was thinking of. Unfortunately it didn't really provide any useful information. But I've been experimenting and I think I can get it done.

Look forward to see what you come up with. Been following your car thread, crazy good, or as our pushpullbar mates would say... 'Craquer!'
