Gnome Valley Proving Grounds

Nice render, some of the regularity as pointed out could be addressed. For me, particularly the regular looking ruts seem too artificial, I'd vary their depth and width. Then maybe extend that dust trail. Usually, on these roads a vehicle throws up quite a plume of dust that lingers for a while, even at fairly moderate speeds.

Great pix! I would like to drive that car there

I would like to do that as well. Thanks for your visit.

Nice one Bob.

Otakar has a point, so if you want to have another go at it, Bob..... it's possible.

Thanks Richard, appreciate your visit.

Thank you. Agree with your suggestions. I may give those suggestions a try.

Thanks Ulco, his ideas are interesting. Maybe some additional tracks and heavier/larger dust plumes. I'll give these a try.

You can use the same tracks output from the file, Bob, add another small scale warper (warp shader + vector displ + fractal), and merge the now two tracks by merge shader. You can use more merges if needed.

great stuff Bob, looking forward to the next one!

Thanks Ulco, hoping to get this looking more realistic.

Thank you Jason, will give the additional tweaks a try.

Ulco, I see the warp shader + vector displ; but, where is the + fractal?

Just sent you an update 

[choronr]

Thank you sir, I will be digesting this. Need some sleep soon; and, will continue tomorrow.

Excellent image, I love the way you've assembled all the models and the landscape together.
