Thank you!
@Markal, in the sixth posting of this thread I wrote how I made these "hanging things". Since it's not (yet) possible to create populations onto objects I had to place the vines
before I exported the model as obj-file.
Thanks for the compliment, but I think no one looks like an amateur here. Even beginners deliver beautiful work since there's a lot of information available (though sometimes tricky to find the ones you're looking for).
OK, just for you I'm a little bit ashamed:

Enough?
