Title: My Experiments
Post by: Werth on December 18, 2007, 08:29:14 PM
I discovered the fascinating world of Terragen 2 like... a week ago. I've gotten to the point where (most) terrain creation comes out as I want... but coloration and textures are still killing me.  :-\

I don't really know the rules of the community here, but I'll welcome the gallows if need be. :P please don't actually send me to the gallows...

I just started reading up on the stuff in Documentation. So hopefully that (combined with the expertise of viewers like you) will give me a jumpstart. ;)

Nice imagination.  I wish you well on your Terragen adventures.

You know you can use a power fractal as the color function on a surface layer, right?

Don't worry. They haven't sent me to the gallows yet, and I'm sure you deserve it much less than I do.

Thanks for all the comments.
I'm still keeping it simple for now. The only post-work here was a little bit of darkening. I'm happy with it. :D
The grass is still a little iffy to me. ...

This is very good for a silhouette-type.  I would have liked to see those white patches on the mountain be clearer as to what they are.
