Sculptured terraces
Set in stone like promises
Today will soon be gone.
Scene incorporates an image map projected cylindrically.
nice, looks almost edible (I am hungry!)
The layers remind me of an image I did some years ago with TG 0.9. Nice! :)
looks sulfurous !
...or
possibly edible..
Confucius say valley not as deep as one's will to cross it. Wait - he was Chinese. Haiku is Japanese. Eh - I get confused. But an interesting terrain to say the least. I try to avoid the strata / outcrops shader due to the overly redundant and regular layers it produces. Looks like you may have a couple at work here, so it breaks it up nicely.
Thanks guys.
Rich, I didn't use the Strata & Outcrops shader. The terracing/strata is defined by the greyscale image map shader placed in the displacement part of a surface shader, and using cylindrical projection in the image map shader. I've uploaded my tgd for this scene along with compressed versions of the colour and displacement images I used so you can see what's going on. As you'll see, in terms of the number of shaders used, it's a very simple scene.
I've also noticed that I have one too many syllables in the last line of my haiku. . . . . bother!

;D ???
Very cool, John.
Thanks for the textures.
thanks John, this looks interesting!
FAbulous, John !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
