hi,
Peter Guthrie's blog:

it also works fine to simulate for example tiles if applied to the displacement channel

Here is a first try,

The SU Raw image:

I was comparing to Kerky lines. I can't see that the hiddenline as in your sculpture could be done, but there is a line per material option that sort of looks like this. Just not versed in using it. Is there a way in Thea that you can do hard edges only or filter the angle? It appears in one picture you have panels in the doors, but not the others? Was that an effect of this?

Pete is there a general dirt tutorial? I just can't see its effect most of the time, or will it only be more pronounced on rectilinear forms?

Cool Pete

You have quite a lot of control in Thea over which edges get wire-frame procedural. By default it is applied to all edges, but you can mark only Silhouette & Hard Inner & Hard outer edges, same way as in Kerkythea.
