Please notice this model:

Circa 1963 Coca-Cola Vending Machine 

It was done by a Freelancer in Maya and then uploaded and rendered in the Sketchfab site.

Now, I am trying to figure out how to replicate this in 3ds Max:

Have a Coke

This is what I have done, intuitively -and probably wrong.

(1) Created a surface, colored it red.

(2) Next I have tried to apply the two attached files in different combinations.

This is not working

TIA,

Those 2 PNG files were delivered to me by the author. I have no idea whether he actually used both.

TIA,
