Absolutely brilliant! I must admit I don't remember much about cosine trigonometry from school.
Though it's never too late to re-learn it. There is no excuse, since we all have access to the 100% free "Khan Academy" if we want to learn cos, sin and other trigonometric functions.

Again, I'm both very impressed and also very thankful. I've been fruitlessly working on a desert scene for a while now. You are nailing the look I am looking for.

Btw, in my own dune scene, I've also implemented giant sand dune mountains, similar to "Big Daddy" in Namibia.

I'll share it with you, though I don't think you need any help. :P Besides, I've got some rendering issues due to having been using the "intersect displacement" functions. I've been trying to implement star dunes as well, that's why I've used intersect.
