Description
Building my first MJT. One of my Mojo new years resolutions is to learn and use MJT a lot more.
I am using various photo's on the net to work from. At this stage I am pretty happy with the trunk. I think the canopy could do with some more variation in terms of meterials and branch controls. Also the tree is very 'healthy' at the moment so I would like to add some elements of dead vegetation to it but am unsure of how to achieve this the most efficient way as the canopy is already quite dense (a lot denser than any free mesh model I have found).
Rendered using fast shadows.
Any suggestions are very welcome.
Thanks for viewing

Excellent first tree Lewis. is the canopy made rom a mesh or from MJT leaves? You can add "dead wood" to the canopies material by using a texture driven parameter for the occurrence of a child. The trunk IMHOP needs to be a 3rd thicker & displaced to effect the bark. It may already be, hard to tell. Mats are excellent. Excellent start Lewis look forward to more:)

The palm is excellent and I really love the amtosphere. I feel the need of having a "neutral" environment like this one in Mojoworld, to test imported models and such. All available atmospheres are very much "biased" and not reliable for testing. May I ask you some hints about how to make such a neutral atmosphere and ground?
