oh man, images of the “week” im looking forward to it…

Tomorrow I will be posting images of the week. so everybody get ready to critique.

Thanks Lee, lets see how many we can get everybody.

Here’s some trees I got a couple years back. They’re even labeled which is nice but due to size constraints I can’t send each individual tree already cut out. Just layer use selective color tool in PS and they come up pretty nice

Can we get people to upload as many tree cutouts as possible?

I got a bunch of stuff for max. Onyx TreeStorm which is pretty good though memory intensive depending on the amount of polygons.

Has anybody seen Vray RT the new realtime renderer? Looks really good….

Does anybody know if there are any efforts being made to cover theraputic landscapes under health care insurance?

I like the onyx trees.
