Looks very nice considering it was build in 10 minutes.
Maybe add some cirrus clouds and your done.

Great looking scene for such short time! Maybe some clouds and smaller bushes would make it even better.

Have you tried out the new lighting options? This would be a good scene to work them out with.

What did you do to get the texture on the trees to show up like that. I know this is talked about often, I just cant remember right now.

I forget to save sometimes also.

The fog looks much better in this version.
Title: Re: Pineland 3
Post by: Zairyn Arsyn on April 23, 2012, 11:36:23 AM
the fog in the next iteration is a little less noisy, and less dense.

Try and add some displacement to the tree bark if you can.

Post by: Zairyn Arsyn on April 23, 2012, 09:20:47 PM

I can't see any. The bark still looks to flat to me.
