Bump mapping on Car Paint Phen?

[Leoni_kou]

Hello to everyone.

I was wondering if there is any way of mapping a texture as a bump map on the existing Mental Ray Car Paint Phenomena. ???

This shader is fantastic!

Unfortunatelly I am not far into the great depths of Mental ray yet...Please enlighten me.:eek:

You can add a bump to a car paint phen using the bumpCombiner node written by francesca luce:
