Title: Winter Sky
Post by: old_blaggard on March 15, 2007, 11:41:33 PM
I was on my deck looking up at a tree set against a nice sky.  I tried to reproduce it here.  Comments and critiques appreciated.

That's TG2TP?  No way!  Very good.  I like the lighting and the clouds are completely believable and beautiful.

Anything can be done in T2TP. I like the picture - it is by far the most realistic Terragen-generated image I have ever seen. I would have had no trouble believing you if you had told me that that was a photo...

Thanks, Dark Fire!  I always strive for realism, so that's the highest compliment you could give me.

The tree is the sweet birch from the free plants made available with the Tech Preview.  All I did was set the opacity of the leaves to 0.

That's a clever way of getting rid of the leaves. I wonder what some of the other free trees would look like without leaves...
