Monkeycloud I use billboards becuase of the polygon count.

Imagine trying to put 12,560 trees in a scene if they were each 50,000 polygons each.

That would be 628,000,000 polygons just for the trees.

Opposed to 25,120.

I would say you do the math but I just did. :-)

Here is another render with some new tree textures I photographed and built today.

Also fine tuning a swampy grass texture for the grass area. Even has puddles.

Thanks go out to BionicRooster for the help he has given me on my textures and the patience to help me learn Posers shaders.

Thanks Jeff!
