How to do realistic battle damage
Posted in
Custom WorkstationI am working on a Batman battle damaged custom. But there is a major hurdle I am trying to cross. I don't know how to make it look like Batman's costume is torn and he is cut underneath. I am not talking little tears in his costume but large tears like his shoulder. And while I am on the subject how do you make realistic tears in his plastic cape. Any advice would be MUCH appreciated.

Please wait...
