Has anyone tried any of these.

If so I was wondering how you rate them?

Maybe a scale of 1 to 5,  5 being the best.

1: produces unreal junk, waste of money.
2: fill in the blank
3: fill in the blank
4: fill in the blank
5: very useful, produces very real looking materials, well worth the money, glad I bought it.

If a scale is not a good way for you then just tell me what you think of it.

I'm making a list of vue rock materials and clouds, atmospheres related things for when I someday might have money again. One can only hope:)
I'm just being careful as I have no money to waste. I wish to supplement the skimpy amount of mats that came with my V8C.

Here' my whole list so far. you may find it useful. I'm not doing this list on behalf of any sellers. I'm just mentioning it as a resource and as a way for me to find out if this stuff is any good or not.

If anyone knows of a good resource for high quality free procedural mats or free high quality solid growth plants, please let me know. My favorites are procedural displacement mats.

I do mostly landscapes, no poser stuff. I'm looking for high quality (highly detailed stuff that has much bang for buck)

Thanks for any help
