Description
After having been giving close examination of several rock and stone shaders provided by the nice folks at Planetside and using that knowledge along with a couple of TU's stone shaders I have arrived at this scene. I am not very good with all the 'Fractal Breakup' nodes yet and I am unhappy with my flat rocks and the distant mountain rockface, but never-the-less, I am still learning and having fun on my personally built New Vista 64 bit QuadCore computer that I put together from the remnants of my burned up 3.2GHz Dual Core.
As always Thanks So Much for your viewing!!!

You got nothing to be ashamed of, Mark - top-notch work with lots of detail. I want to get this good - !
Wow this is the best terragen landscape I've seen. Awesome work.
Magnificent Terragen art! Bravo!
Looks pretty dern good to me! I certainly couldn't do this kind of work! Btw, I just bought a new 64bit Vista system myself, must be upgrade time for lots of people. (To 64 bits)
It's truly a very beautiful landscape of dry rocks and cool mountains. I love the contrast between the warm tones of the rocks and the cool hues of the distant mountains and sky.
Amazing artwork! :) i love your 3d art :) and noo, its just a plain olde flu :) so im ok:) hugs :)
Very realistic atmosphere and textures. Excellent work. Congratulations !
If you back up 5 more steps, you'll be on my porch. ;) Nice one, Mark! ")
Excellent!
Fantastic landscape and great lighting!
You may not be totally happy with this, but it's a delight to these eyes. Very photo realistic. POV and those rocks perfect!!!
Absolutely Fantastic!!
ooohh you are a perfectionist lol... I think that the depth of this image is superb, the rocks are very realistic and the foliage is terrific.. all that is missing is the injuns and the smoke from the gun fight, oh and perhaps a cart wheel or two and a few snakes hummmm,,, and a coyote, a mail coach and some 'osses .. excellent work Mark.
excellent terrain mark...:)..great to see you post again..
Interesting work on the rocks !
To me it looks very realistic! Great work! I just took a little view in Terragen, but it's to complex for me. But the result is great. Very photorealistic. You did a great job!
Nice image....very well done... Is this the new Terragen or the old freebie?
exceptional work
even with all the points you mentioned that you are unhappy with, this is a totally AMAZING image Mark! if you are just in the learning stage, I can only imagine what kind of work you will produce further down the road...OUTSTANDING!
that's very cool render my friend!
Very beautiful and very nice picture!
You do very nice Terragen work and this one captures such a distinct mood.
Awesome stuff dude! and oh yeah... did I ever tell you, that would be cool to drink a cold beer together or 2 or 3 4 etc! lol Have a super week and yeah the good ol weekend too!
