Thanks,
VRay users could use the Dirtmap - and it also has the option to vary spread by a map, so you could just use a procedural to break up the map, which you could animate.
If they're using VRay I'd also look at any distortion maps (like footools' Distort, or I think BerconMaps has one), that way you can distort a bitmap a bit with another map and give it a bit of life.
It's possible to take it quite far considering it's just a fake.
Hope you had a great Christmas and have a wonderful New Year.
Cheers
Steve
