        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

                        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!!

                        oli

                          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...

                          Gai...

                                      Hello Marcoapela,

                                      Here is a noob question 😄 :

                                      Do you know where is that option in the previous version of SU/Vray ? I use SU 7.1 and Vray 1.05.30 and I dont got this option in the diffuse tab 😕

                                        Wow these are great! I use a similar method where I import a jpeg and project it on to a curved face for my background. I leave the sky in, may I ask why you removed it other than the obvious you can change the sky.

                                        Do you add your sky in photoshop? Anyway thanks a bunch as I'll use these a lot.
