here's a challange for someone. ive been fiddling around with it myslef for a while now but i cant seem to get it right. maybe cuz its not possible i dont know but is there someone out there that can make a BONSAI tree in bryce a ONLY using the tree editor? if so please show me how. thanks :)

I don't see how you can make a bonsai in just the tree editor. There just isn't enough flexibility to make a trunk like that. This is a bonsai that I made completely in Bryce. The trunk is a sym. lattice turned up and the branches are many trees with the trunks set to zero, placed at the appropriate positions and angles. It really isn't that hard. Hope this helps.

I just can't get the hang of making tree trunks in a symmetrical lattice (and believe me, I've tried many times!). Any chance of showing us what the lattice looks like, just so I know where to start? Great result you've ended up with there! Huge thanks if you can manage it! Jo

Here it is. Generally, I paint at higher elevations and then use the lowering tool reduce the height. There are some other examples of tree in my artist gallery in the earlier images. Patrick Tuten

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Erm...I'll give it a go in the morning!
