This isnt what my backyard looks like (although I wish it did), but a good exercise

I need a suggestion here....the grass on the left is imported OBJ and the grass on the right is TG2's native grass clumps

which one do I use??..


Also this is Work in progress so there is a lot more stuff coming onto this....

I say use the grass on the left. Looks good too. I look forward to the finished image. :)

I like the one on the left most, just wondering what it would look like if you did a mixed population of both grass tgos  with a little breakup on each to give some variation of high and low grass patches for realism. Just a thought.   :P

The grass on the left looks a bit too busy, and TG2's grass looks a bit too flat.  Try using populations of each mixed together, with each individual population having a lower object spacing, but totaling the same density of grass.

I agree - mixing the populations could produce a cool effect, and would certainly make the grass look more real (more texture, size and shape variations).

It's really coming along.  I think all you've got to do is add a little bit more detail here and there and you will have an awesome render.

Nice.  Nice.  Take your time to make it beautiful. 
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?
