Cool. No imported objects at all? Maybe I should search for some Greyscale-to-hight tutorials.

This is excellent! Looks like I'm missing some fun in that editor!

Done completely in terrain editor.

Pidgy you need to post a tutorial on the way you achieved it. Tremendous work! Another great terrain editor artist is zfigure7. Check out his gallery too!

Pidgy's image demonstrates the creative power which can be achieved by using the terrain editor. I also love experimenting with the terrain editor. The object image here was created (this evening) by applying a variety of textures on several modified versions of the grayscale image (at right , which I designed in Illustrator). The total time involved . . . . about 30 minutes!

Humorix, you did it again. Fantastic image. I feel like a newbee next to your image :)

Well here's a face (which I used in my image "The Gladiators") created with the terrain editor. I first rendered a Poser face as a height map and used this image to get my grey scale reference. Using this image as reference, I painted/created my face in Photoshop and then imported it into the terrain editor. I emphasised the nose and eyebrows with metaballs. The eyeballs are a pair of spheres. For the mummy image I have provided an explanation of sorts in my gallery. The setting of the mummy image has been created directly in the terrain editor. They are a number of terrains grouped together. The body of the mummy was painted in KPT GEl and then exported as a height map (PGM file) which I reconverted to a greyscale and touched up in Photoshop and brought it back into the terrain editor. You'll find some good tutorial to model with Terrain editor at deeptextures.demon.co.uk. Check out the Orcan Farmer! Do let me know if I can help in any other way! Take care, Avi

this is my first contribution for using the terrain editor. these maps were painted directly in the terrain-modeler. (the maps are original size- maybe you want to use them) built with symmetrical terrains. unfortunately you cant edit the symmetrical-border-line, to make it round. i did this in photoshop. i think for this picture the set of light is almost more important, than the modeling.
