been working on this since last week.

this is based off a previous project that has gone through multiple iterations, going back at least 3 years now.
with new features added to TG2 and new shared terrain clip files available, i've come back to it once again and seeing what interesting terrains i can get.

comments & critiques welcome.

Nice effect! I like sharp ridges of dangerous_03 image.

I rather like these. A good ice surface setup working in some of them. And very interesting terrain forms.

it starts to get more dangerous in this version, sharp rock formations!

i had to build a observation deck to avoid seriously injuring myself.

That ice is something else.  Brilliant!

it might be a surprise, but on the previous iterations (excluding the first) the ice surface layer had neither a reflective or lambert shader, just regular surface layer with luminosity turned on.

Now I understand. :o
If that terrain is luminous, its even more hazardous than I thought!
The only thing I would change in the later ones is the size of the clouds, they seem strangely small to me. But its supposedto be a strange place. so what.
