Hi Oli,

many thanks for your work. Thank you for your work and that you share it with us. Some days ago i had problems. Today i tried it again and these links are working fine.

Would it be presumptuous to ask what technique you use. I would like to make a contribution.

Wow! Thank you! This is a huge timesaver! "meticulously deleted all the sky"is an understatement... Laboriously... PAINSTAKINGLY... ouch! I've done this sort of thing in photoshop before(for single shrubs) and it is a huge pain! Thank you for sharing this!! especially for sharing the PNGs!
I hope the thank yous have caught up with the download numbers.... (on ShareCG my average is 900 - 1 or something like that.)
Thanks!

Thanks Oli, Native English trees are very much appreciated, I tend to use tropical plant components far too much!

Oli,

Thanks for the images. They are fantastic.

I haven't used png's in a while, could someone point me to a tutorial that shows how to create the shadow effect shown for the treeline? That's what happens when you don't use a technique for a few years...sigh.

Thanks,
O2bwln

olishea

the image is rendered.

you can not achieve shadows like this in sketchup....sketchup will just give a rectangular shadow.

unless you trace around every single leaf, twig, branch etc!!

so get rendering!!

Gaieus

You can make a very rough tracing for SU as these are really in the background and do not need to be very exact/detailed...
