Hi, I am needing some backdrops and scenes for my renders. I am wanting to find ackdrops that look like they are in a tropical forest, and also looking for plants that I can use in my renders. Anyone have any ideas as to where to look?

Hi look at my image in the gallery entitled 'gentle giant' the backdrop was created with runtime dna's cyclo-drop. I got the plants from all over the place but i'll IM you some of the sites when I get home from work. Have fun Dave

Hi this is a copy of IM but others may find it useful..... for background try RNDA'a Cyclodrop do a search on their site for it they also do extra backgrounds/textures and judith also has some sea plants there which may give you some ideas of how to create your own a quick alternative is use a jpg of for instance a jungle in poser as a background use the import the backgrountex option from the file menu.. http://www.toucan.co.jp/indexE.htm http://www.planit3d.com/index.htm and also try Http://www.kurtz-fernhout.com (or do web search for plantstudio)for a great program for making your own realistic plants it's also now free! anyway let me know how you get on Dave
