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!

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!

Excellent image Alvin. You can almost feel the humidity and I think I want to enter that forest for an adventure. This looks so like some pictures my friend took whilst in Taiwan.8)

This looks very similiar to a picture I saw in a travel magazine. At the time I didn't give it much thought other than thinking if I could do something like that with Bryce.....LOL. Well, I can't but its obvious you can! Awesome rendering! v

A relic?!!? This is the best foliage work I've ever seen in Bryce. Gotta check out your coconut freebie. This image is so engaging, I'd expect to see a prehistoric creature come out of that darkness. AMAZING!!!! vote.
