I could get one, please let me know  ;)

Nice color scheme and scene as a whole. I like it very much.

Mr. Lamppost has released grasses a long time ago, Walli has too, and I have some (free) at NWDA. Searching the forum may help you find them.

I find Ulco's (Dune) single grasses to be incredibly versatile, but due take awhile to populate. His clumps are very nice as well.

The grass you have in this project looks rather nice, very soft and "rolling". The ground texture in the right with the grass particularly draws my attention. It's nice.

Very nice render! Smooth and peaceful ambience.

The problem with this grass clump, is that it consist of maybe 3 single grass strands.
I have to make billions of instances  :'(

I've reworked the scene a little.

Changed the lighting, changed distribution on some of the vegetation and added some more.
Hope you like it.

I prefer the first iteration. Trees take up too much attention now, spoiling the serene mood.

You can also use the internal grass for a bit more distant than close-up. Decrease width of the stems (object x and Z at 50%), and if very slopey terrain, decrease patch from 10m to maybe 5, and use rotation, after a final compute normal between last node and pop.

Seems that I have a bit different taste: I prefer the new version.
What bothers me a little are the big rocks. They look too smooth and streched.

What I fell in love with at first sight were the snowy peaks at the horizon.


Perhaps the view could be also more interesting for Ulco if you add a kind of inconspicuous but visible story in the middle where the grass appears pure and naked?

WOW! This is fantastic! Love the update, I mean, I can literally see Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey marching out of the woods on their quest to return her in a new updated remake. Lol

Yeah, that's what the lighting and scene reminded me of. I hope that's not an insult. :O

Hahaha!

I'll take it as a compliment  :)

I like this version very much.

But now you are under pressure: what about a donkey or an ogre in the middle? ;)
