my problem was : 34 hours to render that... so that means 34 hours not doing anything else on terragen... hard time buddy

and you were right !!!
the grass is much too basic :) but when i rendered it i didn't expect it to last so long ^^

what were your settings...I am suspecting that the long render times are due to the clouds..

Great feel to this one, very nice scene. It looks a lot like TG 0.9 aside from those outstanding clouds. ;D

Fantastic. Is the terrain made with Terragen also?

Cool. One suggestion I have is to try and create some kind of shore area otherwise landscapes like this tend to look like they've been suddenly flooded and don't have that natural sense of scale either that a nice shore area brings.

good idea ^^

I love the colors, and the lighting is awesome too. I actually kinda like there being that much grass on the hillsides.

Excuse me, but should there be gaps when the cloud cover is that dense? To me it looks a bit like Thor shot holes in the clouds...

Reminds me to a loch in scotland, and then with a lake, there is no shoreline needed.
Like that!!

Seth, very nice.  It does remind me of Scotland.

@Virex - I've seen plenty of clouds like that.  Depends on where you live, I guess.
