After some time i've been offline.. here is my new pic!
It's morely an image done to test soft shadows, but also the populator.
C&C are welcome! ;)
very nice.....try increasing AA
Hmmm .... AA was my first thought before seeing the image. But on closer inspection I can't see any technical flaw on the populations and lighting. It is very, very good.
You might want to add a 'Colour function' into the leaves' Default shader, add some details to the ground and take your time for the clouds. But you reached your goal. (thumbs up!)
This is very nice. I agree that the ground could use some texturing and the clouds could use higher numbers. It does look good, though.
I agree with Volker. Nice image, there's a lot of potential here.
