Hmmmm the bread still smells good over here though. Though the same texture settings that i used on the ground, is also used on the leaf/branch versions of the snow covered trees.... the big difference is in the lighting. I love lights... I love lots of lights... Actually there are quite a few low powered omni's and spots scattered throughout the terrain, down near the ground, with a few that are the default white, but most are tinted with light blue or an amber, depending on if i wanted to warm up or cool down an area. Was to intent on just getting the effect of snow on the tree to do the same there as well - and it does make a noticable difference. Intend to finish this up with something in the center to add a bit more focus, but haven't decided what that's to be. Will work more on lighting the branches then. As to the clumps of snow around & in the plants. There are six terrains used in the image, overlapping each other, worked on and tweaked, to enable me to get the effect here.. and quite a number of rocks, some duped in place, textured different and offset... Easier to do then to explain. Nothing done was of a very difficult nature, just been doing it for awhile. Any particular part you be interested in, let me know and i'll try to remember what i did - memory ain't what it should be.... best, hewsan
