Currently I am putting together some "moody" sky presets in Bryce. I think that they're pretty enough that maybe Hotoshop users could use them as backdrops or whatever the imagination might make of them, in their artwork. This is a sample of the sky presets. If you think "backdrops" might be a fun product, please let me know, or give me your input. My friend, an avid photoshop user, suggested that the backdrops be high res and to have at least 10 in the package to play with. The titles of the presets shown are 1. Grey Ice, 2. Deep Green Moods, 3. Dracula's Blood, and 4. Aurora Gold.

They look great! I use Photoshop mainly as a tool in combination with Poser, Bryce, Vue, etc... I don't know if Photoshop specific "backdrops" would be of interest... but if they could be sized to be appropriately used as backdrops in Poser, that may be something else entirely.... Or, a combination...hi-res PSD files and the same files on a smaller scale (500x500?) as Poser backdrops... I might be interested in something like that.... just thoughts...

Also, for the backdrops, if everything involved in the backdrops be on separate layers to ease the pain a little bit. Personally, I'm not interested in them at all, but I could see how some people would be.

It's a great plug-in. I'm just offering something to spark the imagination. s

Nope - I don't have that plugin, though it is quite possible you can do this with a filter. The skies are created in Bryce and the scenes above were created in Bryce. However, I have rendered the skies and taken them into PaintShop Pro as a .psd file where I do a slight bit of additional touch-up and re-sizing, turning them into backdrops for use in PSP, PhotoShop or Poser. Take a peek at what Buddha has done with them so far. View Sihn Test One and Sihn Test Two.

NO sorry for the confusion, the filter shown at http://www.ruku.com/rf4seasno1.html is what I was talking about....your skies are very nice...you were clear that you created them in Bryce...:-)

those look cool, most ppl would prefer to make theyre own, but for those who dont have bryce.... i would do this, but take the foregrounds out, just leave the terrain, maybe thats an idea? just a thought
