Thanks David and Bayazit.
I’ll have to check out some of those plug-ins, and while I’m at it I have to get V-Ray.
I’d love to see some samples of 3rd party plug-ins.

Hi Hefti,
 
you can find some examples at my DA Gallery 3D Jobs folder. Most of the recent works are produced with 3D vegetation, a combination of pre-made models, self-models used via proxies and rendered with MentalRay or Vray. Hopefully, they can give some idea.
 

Question: anyone have some pictures of examples of vegetation done in 3Ds?
 

oh late night 3ds what would i do without you?

Greet links, they helped a lot on a recent project. Thanks!
 

Thanks for your photos Chris.  Deadrick street looks great!
Kevin– yes, we are installing planters over storm inlets.

i think we should have different scales and classes
 

What is the grade and the largest amount of water you are dealing with? The planter needs to be designed to handle whatever nature throws at you.  You can retrofit the drain like Chris said to become the overflow at the down end of your planter. If you have a lot of slope, check dams can hold the water and pool it to infiltrate fully. Then the…[Read more]

Are you talking about installing a planter over a storm inlet, or a storm line? 

We are designing stormwater bioretention planters for a downtown.  We want to place a planter where a storm drain currently exists.  Can a planter be designed over a storm drain and be an effective bioretention measure — i.e. slowing down rainwater but not completely infiltrating?  Appreciate any input.

sorry…rude awakening, early am….It’s not a PUN, tho – lowest form of humour, of course..So there is room at the bottom, Henry!

You would have to hace specific rules i.e. how much post production is allowed?

(Land 8 Lounge digital challenge CHAMPION) it should be i picture of a cougar or something badass like that.

I like the idea of a digital badge to put on your profile pic like some site overseers have the 8 logo in theirs

think there should be a small fee so there could be a prize? idk how this would work but i would like to put something up make things real. we should come up with a digital badge for your profile… that would be cool.
 

well, any suggestions would be appreciated… its still a concept now so lets make it great. i want some excitement…
