Aye, I am thankful for all the input on this one! I agree with everything said, and have indeed already incorporated some of these ideas into this next render.... I added a bit to the house, it will force a change in the Point of View, but that is acceptable. There is a lot of smoothing and blending to be done, for certain... I'll definitely put in a path leading to the modeled path, that's a great idea! I added more shrooms and shrunk them all, I didn't like them as big as they were in the first post. But I plan on adding characters, and the characters will determine the scale for the scene. That's what characters are for! More flowers, though, and more foliage, and woo hoo! Also, some smoke out of the new chimney... This scene, simple enough, has really sparked me and broken me of ruts I thought I was stuck in! Thanks again for the input, more news at 11...
