Description

This one's a relic from last year. I thought I lost this one. Ever saved something, and then you look for it and can't find it? That's what happened. I recently recovered it. Having lived in a tropical island most of my life, I know real coconuts (Cocos nucifera species) don't look like Bryce treelab coconuts (they look more like a Coccothrinax alta subspecies). Frankly, I think Vue coconuts resemble the real thing much better. I decided to make my own with Bryce spheres (leaves), and cylinders (trunk). Having made the coconut already, this image took about an hour to assemble and probably 30 mins to render. All other plants made in treelab. Lighting with cylindrical lights: infinite, volume, and gel. A little postwork in Photoshop. You can download it at freestuff now, thanks greatly to Agentsmith! http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?ForumID=107&Form.ShowMessage=1685174 Not quite perfect but it works well with front lighting, I need to work on it a little bit more. I'm not supposed to be onlne, I'm supposed to be studying but here I am, yay! Sorry I haven't checked my IM's and e-mails lately. I'll find time for them. Thanks for veiwing and a great weekend to everyone!

I can't decide, shall I stare in awe, vote or just download? Resolved: Do All of the Above. Most excellent work! Now back to your studies, Alvin! (I know too well, how Bryce addiction fits well in a procrastinator's lifestyle).
