Wow! Big, bad tree.

Here is the tree with branches that don't contrast.

Henry,

Yes, North America. It would be cool if some of you folks suggest other trees, perhaps native to your part of the world.

Marc

Not quite native to our part of the world but...how about Pandora trees ?  ;D

Cheers.

Kadri,

Very cool. I will keep these in mind. Thanks for the heads-up.

If you're looking for a challenge... well, the Redwood is the obvious one. But goodness knows how hard it would be to model one of the really big ones.

domdib,

I was messing around with this. This is why it's free. I'll get to a detailed one soon.

Too me the new tree branches look wrong. But thanks for the update.

They are working well with your BigPines for a North Woods render.

I notice that a lot of birches are partially overgrown by algy, which would offset the pure whiteness of the bark. And would make the green branches look good again. Although in our 'rough birch' the smaller branches are a shiny sort of dark gray/green, not as bright as in your initial object. To get this algy, you can always put an extra (one color greenish) PF in the part shader.
