Canardia Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 You can create an alpha channel with GIMP or Paint.NET. The POM alpha bitmap must come from a high poly model from Blender or 3DSMax.

Canardia Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 You need to manually paint the places between the stones transparent. You could also photograph the stones on a green or blue paper, then it's a bit easier to fill the green or blue are with transparent color.
