@ Lighting: well I didn't really break it, I meant it is just not working anymore...somehow. The magnetic strip works fine but the chip which allows me to make electronic transfers, for paypal for example ;), doesn't work anymore...

I don't remember from who the other grass models are. They're called "Lush Grass"...perhaps they're yours! ;D

Very nice render, Martin.  I still think that the background mountains don't quite look right to me (maybe because of a lack of mid-range features?) but overall, definitely a good and accomplished image.

awesome at large scale...agree about the background mountains...but still the foreground more than makes up for it!

Congrats on the outcome Martin!  What makes this for me is the Plants and POV. Would love to see a version with no vegetation so we could see your displacements and surface work.

That can be arranged :) You'll be surprised how ugly the foreground terrain is without vegetation :P

It's a pity many people don't spot/notice the ivy on the tree...

no i did how did you do that?

well, it's not that difficult :) Ivy Generator. After converting the Xfrog model to .obj and running it through Poseray I import it into IvyGenerator. Since it is a high-poly model the ivy growth process is fairly slow. Also, the controls aren't really intuitive at first, so it took quite some fiddling to get it look a bit decent :)
It's just that, as far as I know, I've never seen anybody using Ivy's on trees in TG. I can be mistaking of course!

??? Pardon? How can you miss it? You'll have to excuse the lack of attention, we were all smitten with the overall quality (kinda like enjoying a really good strawberry smoothy). ;)

LOL  TU is so dedicated to the details, he didn't realize how blown away we were by his artwork.  Ha!
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Martin,

I came back to this threat simply to let you know that in my eyes, this is the most beatiful TG2 render ever made by anyone! A matter of personal preference of course, but to me it really is. Even in case someone wouldn't fancy the scene as such, one has to bow to the exceptional use of and lighting on vegetation and the overall quality.

And as a side remark: I've noticed the ivy first thing!  ;D

Cheers,
Frank
