i have loads of stuff i'm working on that i need your help with. I saw an advert in a magazine from Saturday's paper. Basically it for some wireless lights, they were solar powered. The advert said that they were waterproof and could be used in ponds or water features. This intergrued me, the picture provided in the advert wasn't the best (cheap paper and fuzzy looking) so I decided to have a go at re-creating the lights in Bryce. I'm trying to go for a mystical/spooky look. Er... the sky preset I've used had too much mist so currently the scene is above the mist level, I may drop it back later. Basically I want to put trees or bushes on the far edge of the pond but the bushes I used were based on a volumetric texture and looked wrong I've tried to create bushes in the tree lab with no success. I want the plants to cover the horizon. So basically..... too many basics, sorry... I need ideas on which way to take this project and how to put in some decent vegetation. All help will be gratefully revieced. John
