some render testing of the latest alpha build, a geocontrol terrain, with TG2 enhancements, pinus nigra bushes, I believe from Lightning (correct me if I am wrong!)...sphere object TG2 internal, and geometric object created with TopMod (a great app!)....all textures are procedural, thanks for taking time to view/comment/critique, as these are always welcome and appreciated!

Great clouds, terrain, surfacing (especially love the black and red sphere). How are you finding TopMod? Is is relatively easy to work with?

[inkydigit]

thanks dom, I was very happy with that shader myself, 2 pfs and a merge shader, with specularity/reflectivity settings.... yes, with topmod it is relatively easy to produce simple shapes, the more complex ones are obviously a bit more tricky, there are a good few video tutes that set out the basics, the rest is logic and reason!

It is a very interesting image. I may have changed the locations of the spheres and the TopMod object so it looked more contrived. But that is the only thing I have. The landscape shading is great!

The clouds look fantastic!

Jason, I really like this and look forward to seeing the next one. Your landscape is ever so natural ...keep on.

Love the SW states desert setting and those looming clouds. I can alternatively imagine the scene without the balloons, and with a pop of those TopMod grid balls depicted as tumbleweed, some of them with a touch of motion blur.

Cool, inky.  Very sci-fi.
