Wild Shroom

[Linda McCarthy]

Having a blast playing with power fractal displacements!  Thought I'd post a small, low-res version of what I'm working on.
The plant is a dry shrub by Walli: http://www.nwdanet.com/buy-packs/details/34/8/object-packs/dry-bush-bundle-pack
Suggestions for improvement are always appreciated.  Have a beautiful Sunday.    Linda

Sure looks like you're having fun. That is one wild and wonderful maasif, Linda. Looking forward to the full size render. You're gonna get some (how-on-earth-did-she-do-that) requests for a tgd on this one.

John's right, you better write up a tutorial.
This looks great. I am looking forward to the full size render.

Very nice terrain and clouds - look forward to the final version, plus any tips you'd like to share 

[Linda McCarthy]

Thanks for your comments!

@ njeneb and domdib: Well, no tutorial or specific tips from me, but I have included the .tgd for this full-size, higher res version.  I don't know what the heck I'm doing- just having fun playing with numbers.  Feel free to use and abuse the file any way you want.

@John:  It's all your fault, you know.    seriously, I not only have used and re-used your tutorial, but have been inspired by your funky "Bollard Outcrop"  http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=8439.0

My settings are a little different, but not much.

Tips/suggestions always received and mostly used.

Thanks Linda for the tgd file. It will be fun pulling it apart, seeing how you do things. Much of the work I do with Terragen 2 is 'what if I try this?'

[domdib]

Thank you - as njeneb says, it's always instructive to analyse others' scenes.

Superbly constructed scene!  The clouds are well done and draw you in, and I just love the strata in the foreground especially!
