I'm working on a building, and it happens to have stucco on the outside walls. The problem? Well, I'm envisioning a close fly-by, and perhaps some of the stucco breaking off in small chunks and powder... I'm still a horrible noob, but as I understand it, a bump map just wouldn't be very helpful in a situation like this. So, my real question is: What is the easiest way to create a stucco object (in other words, a 3-d model of stucco instead of a flat picture)?

P.S. Is there perhaps a plugin where I could "spray-on" the stucco as part of the mesh???
