Hello there,
since I can now use the fast PC of my very patient girlfriend,
I thought I make an image with some more stuff in it.
I used:

-Cedar & Bigpine trees by JCinBAMA, Pinebark by Mr. Miley
-only two bushes of old blaggards Bushgroup, because I am using the free version of TG,
-planetary grass shader by dandelO, that shader is great for all purposes
-the water-rippel-image from Sonshine777s two canoes and his floating logs
-the beautiful Nina by bobbystahr
-Tasmania terrain and everything else found at ashundar
-My own all-purpose rock-image that you will find in most of my images

I hope it doesn´t turn out to dark, (on my -not my girlfriends- Screen the water turned nearly black, it isn´t supposed like that.)
And most of all that some of you like it.
If you don´t, tell me why!



Best Regards,
Jan

I like this. You did great with the nearly vertical cliffs. Mine always look like straight paneling.

Pretty ground, the scene is well built, I would have perhaps put the lower camera!
I find the vegetation a little sparse but especially too small (size)

The sand looks good, and the cliffs, but the boat seems too large (or, as Phylloxera says, the trees are too small).

I thought they (the vegetation) was MrLamppost's, so the size is right. I sometimes have large scale variations in a population. Helps break uip the uniformity.

Thanks to all!


@njeneb: The cliffs are a result mainly of my exaggeration of the hight of the Tasmania Terrain, they are not procedural. Another point is that my imagemap is projekted as Plan y, not by camera.
I didn´t understand your comment about mr Lamppost making the vegetation right. Did you mean, if it was his it would be supposed to be bushes, not trees?

@dombib: You are right, there is some problem with scale.
I liked the vegetation as it was, but didn´t want to loose all the detail on the boat by making it smaller.
I put in the logs on the beach in order to indicate that all the tall trees are gone, leaving only the small ones.


@Phylloxera : Same problem as allways , I should make animations. There is allways some nice detail one would lose by zooming in on another.
If I lowered the camera the "tidepool" or whatever it is wouldn´t be visible, and I like it much.

Maybe there is a compromise, but most of all I need more resolution, but can´t afford the full version at the Moment.
Maybe I make some detail renders to go with the overview ;)

Best regards,
Jan

I have a old monitor which shipped free with the computer. The color is not right, and Dell has not made a Vista driver for it. So, looking at things is a little weird, even at 1280 x 1024. I thought you may have used Mr.Lamppost's Brush Pack. I like it as much as Walli's Plants.

I thought TG2 had been pirated. ;D Cool image, maybe a slightly lighter atmosphere shade would be good to bring out the colour of the veg.
Figured out how to do clicky signatures

I like this, especially the water and shore  :)
the only thing I dont like is the title, cause it reminds of the torrent/werez website of the same name.
