Agree; when you check out the link that Ulco posted, you will see an almost endless variety of these plants. And, the details in these things are beautiful. Nature is amazing.

Thanks Jason, I'm working on a scene that's going to take awhile.

This is the a re-work including the suggestions made. I had forgotten to mention some credits here. They include: Dead tree model by dandelO, Hero rocks clip file by FrankB, Dry shrub model by Walli; Dry grasses from a friend; and, the three Lithops models by Dune. Next image coming up will be a close up of the Lithops.

Interesting note: The final render of this image was 7.57 hours. When I looked at my computer clock, it read 7.57 PM. What are the odds of this ever happening again?

Great render, it's all looking good. I realized these lithops are quite small, aren't they? Perhaps you need something to give them scale, like a lost pack of cigarettes, or a rusty can?

[choronr]

Good idea. I've already completed the next project with them but haven't rendered yet. I will try adding something.

Jo, thank you very much. Keep an eye for my next image which will be a close up of these beautiful plants. I'm close to doing the final render. Dune has done a fine work of modeling on these.
