Nice work. The first seems to have more volume, if you follow what I mean. The second seems more menacing.

you should use the altitude offset function in clouds to better define the position of the clouds in the 2nd render!

nice work!

Cool work Ulco.
I like the first version the most as it has a real sense of motion.

I don't really see what you mean here. You mean the clouds should be taller, so more depth?

I meant to say that using altitude offset function might make it look like the clouds are following the the terrain and not cutting through it......

The 1st one is quite nice, very realistic look to the dust (the rest of the scene is rather unfinished/simplistic, I'm guessing intentionally at this point).

We put a "secret ingredient" in the latest version, and I guess it might be addictive... ;)

Yeah, it's just playing around and never finishing, because another idea pops up. So I got loads of unfinished tgd's in file, but cannot really delete them. Luckily they're just small text files.

I have hundreds of tgd's in various stages of development. It's too much fun starting from scratch... ;D

Looking good Ulco. You should be here in the Phoenix area during mid July through early September when we have our 'monsoon season'. I never knew what dust was in Chicago until I mover here in 1987. I swear I can literally sweep up 20 pounds of dust each time one of these dust storms move through our area. Have a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TH_4lL_DjE
