Description
I am having too much fun with the K2 terrain file thing, courtesy of eponce (many thanks for all images associated.)
I am trying to go for realism in these shots and was appearently succeding.
This one is on one of the summits.
Enjoy

Beautiful Atmo and Lighting!
Excellent picture ! Nice snow and lighting ! Yes, you succeed in making a realistic picture ! Bravo !
Holy Smoke ! This IS realism ! At Himalayan levels the snow is much rougher, more frozen and icy, wind making ribs and edges in it, and not this friendly, 'ski-piste' like .... that's the only thing I can say except 'Beautiful !'.
Apparently you're not succeeding... You need a couple for surface layers, some bump mapping would be nice. Good lighting though, and I like the terrain.
Beautiful colors, and i agree with crashcowboy but this kind of snow is impossible to make because tg can't make so much depth surfaces
mmm,,this is good, but i would say,,less snow,,another snow layer with a rougher bump map,,better rock surfaces, and, well, i usually prefer crissper images,,,but thats just me. Other than that, this is great
Tolle Surface und Himmel.
Beautiful dusk lighting. Great image. :)
nice image with a great snow surface
Beautiful smooth snow. But Crashcowboy is right the more icy snow in the himalayas. I like the lighting and the plain blue sky. Very simple but good.
This is reasonably good. But I agree: you need more layers on your surface. This is definitely moving toward realism.
