The Walking Trees of Kepler-452b

[Dune]

Started as a test to see how the scalefilter in the fractal warp works. I first made it a kind of alien landscape (which needed some weird but logical trees), but I didn't like it, so made it earthlike again. The latter took 76 minutes to render.

Both are wonderful Ulco!

The first one is very other worldly. The effect of the lighting looks neat. The second one is wild as the trees seem to compliment the look of the terrain in an interesting manner.

[Kadri]

Looks interesting. Both of them.

Stonking! Those cliffs are something else.

The second picture of the grass is very good .  Is a program or object .

[Dune]

It's just the internal grass population, with ground colors fed into the default shader through a transform shader set to world position. The grass object itself with X and Z reduced to 50%, blade length 0.5 or so, less blades (3000), and slightly sunk. And rotated with terrain.

2 amazing scapes Ulco...your tree as always are strange beyond belief almost...

1 further query, what are you plugging into the Scale on the FW shader? Thanks for starting this thread and as a consequence kick starting me.

Good question, Bobby. Try a PF with not too small smallest size (I think I used 100m or so), and colors ranging from 0.5 to 1. Where the fractal is white you get warp, where it's grey, it's less. If you increase the warp you can get some nice 'quarry-like' areas.

Thanks Ulco, kinda what I was playin around with but hadn't done B&W...for some reason I used 2 actual colours...sigh...it was late at nite here is my excuse....

 Thank you dune , I trying to you set up in the grassclump .

[Dune]

I made you a quick file (old version of TG).

[Hannes]

Great, Ulco!!!

I made you a quick file (old version of TG).

heh heh, quick for you...I've been trying since I first started and have come no where near this...thanks for sharing. I shall consider this a tutorial of sorts.
