Here is a scene made by my friend Tom (dreamlandmodels). Thanks Tom!

 

In this scene he has placed numerous examples of "billboard" trees and shrubs. These are essentially "paper cutouts" of pictures of plants. A single polygon holds an image that is used as diffuse color, and another image that is used as a transparency map (also called transmap for those in a hurry). The map should actually be called an opacity map, but let's not quibble.

In this version, the plants are shown pretty much as they existed for the photographer.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
