dh has created some cool stones. Here is a render based upon a few small changes...small changes.

Very nice, Calico :). Those few small changes that you made really add a lot, I think.
nice rocks
thank you calico for giving me the credit and I love the stones!
very very good....
have you tried using a slight brighter color for the stones??
DH - I "lost" your stones while playing around. That distinctive shape is missing. As soon as I get that back, I'll repost something with better colors.
Here is what I've come up with so far.
Three things:
1. I want to increase the color realism
2. I want to increase the amount of displacement.
3. I want to mask out the ground so the boulders appear to be realistic.
Otherwise, I like this better than my first one.

as per color realism....I guess it all depends on what type of overall atmosphere you are trying to achieve....

Try adding a negative Y displacement to the redirect shader and stretch it....

yea...I am having a LOT of trouble doing that....I might have to redo the whole thing again....
dh - Thanks. I think your work is great. Be careful if you feel like getting rid of anything via disappointment in what you can't yet see. You've done a good job and maybe you just need time to think about it. Don't assume because I participated that your work is sub-par. I'm totally in learning mode.
As a matter of fact, I leaving this work for a few days to think about some other stuff and come back later. I work better this way.
