Hi guys, I'm going to make a bunch of background trees, low-spreading things like Japanese maples in autumn gold leaf colors and such. Some Japanese deciduous trees in green, and other kinds of scenes. Just so we all have more trees to play with. These will be very low-polygon: won't stand up to foreground views and I probably will not worry too much about the bark details. I will make the leaves be real geometry - not alpha planes - so that they' catch light accurately. These will exist just to help fill up a scene (such as a Japanese garden), and their shapes will be accurate. Anyhow, I'll try to market them extremely cheaply - say 15-18 trees for $10.00 USD - in that range. Look for them on www.expandingwave.com starting on Saturday, February 11. Someone was pointing out to me that 'Forester' spent all her time making water, and "it was time for her to make some darn trees!" LOL!
