Odd question, but Im needing to locate floral arrangements that you would find "grave side" for a funeral scene Im working on... (outta cash, so Im needing freestuff here...) Any help would be greatly appreciated... -Thanks Lee

I haven't seen any CG funeral flowers. They usually come in two types: the ones in water (sprays and upright arrangements) which can go to hospitals or to the wake or wherever the family designates, and the ones not in water (usually formed like wreathes, crosses, hearts, etc., mounted in florist's foam shapes). These latter often go graveside. I'd suggest making a flatttened dull green torus into a wreath by sticking it full of whatever flowers you can find in freestuff (best if you can make the stems invisible, but that might not matter depending on how you place it in the scene). You can make a cross out of two cubes and treat it the same way. Robin Wood, DAZ, and somebody else made roses. Britt and thgeisel (sp?) made some pretty blossoms. Baument had a vase on a pedestal, and there are various plants at Lannie's and other sites. (You'll need leaves for outlining the various shapes.) If you want a propped up arrangement at the head of the grave, try using an easel or the plate stand which should both be in freestuff. hope this helps, Carolly
