      The details are incredible. Are these 3d? If so they must be a bit large.

        Nope, they are 2d.

        The detail is second to none, I have never seen such crisp vegetation before, you can use them for extreme close ups or massed.

                Stu,

                I just chatted with Andrew Dale, the guy who made the trees in my original post and guess what?

                Yup, he also made the ones for Ozbreed and is commissioned to make more in the near future.

                      Solo - If you are chatting with Andrew again be sure to suggest that a collection of less tropical species (such as pines, spruce, aspen, cherry, oak, poplar, maples etc) would be popular.

                      Your render is sweet. πŸ€“

                        Thanks Ross.

                        We discussed that this morning (morning for me at least in the US, as he resides in Oz) and decided that as soon as his current obligations are completed to look at Northern hemisphere vegetation including most of your suggested species.
                        I would like to even go one step further and possibly put collections together according to growth zones and continents.
                        I could only imagine how beneficial a collection based on ones zone could be at these resolutions and detail.

                        I will keep you informed as things progress.

                            Thanks Fredrick.

                            I have an island scene with the whole collection on them that I wanted to render in Echo, but I have not had the time to learn how to use it correctly yet. (my brain cannot handle another GUI it seems)

                            I will get to it (the learning) as soon as I complete a Wall-E modeling job thats overdue.

                                    To be honest, the quality and fine detail is better than everything I have seen so far including X-frog, however the range is limitted right now. I believe that when he has a comprehensive range of the same quality then he will have the best thats currently available.

                                      Sorry Pete, I thought I was actually telling you that πŸ˜„

                                      [there is a link on Andrew's site to the OzBreed site.]

                                      As I understand it, Andrew is a New Zealander and the plants on his site [Cordylines, Phormium etc.] are native to his country.

                                      He has been promising for a long time now to come out with with a collection of Australian native plants, so lets hope he doesnt shelve that in a rush to try to compete with ImageCels, Ambient Light, Got3D, etc etc.

                                      Scott,

                                      Ambient Light puts out good stuff but I would think Envirographics cut-outs are superior. And I would imaging that a lot of time, blood sweat and tears has been lost in their production.

                                      As great as they are, I'm not sure the quality would be noticed in most renders unless they are in the foreground. You might have noticed that a lot of suppliers are offering high res. branches as foreground framing of renders, which is sort of admitting that a lot of images dont work that well close up..but then they dont need to.

                                        Thanks I Will have to look into them some more.

                                        Stu,

                                        I completely agree. More times than not you can get away with a medium quality image if it is not in the foreground. I would just like to see some more high quality images for foreground work than just using my same few, but then again for 80-90% of my work I do not do exterior renderings. Not too many office spaces that require high quality foreground plants. For the price though, these are worth looking into.

                                        Does anyone have any experience with http://www.vbvisual.com

                                          you are indeed correct - I am a New Zealander 😲 .

                                          The Australian project was announced about 7 months ago and in between I was contracted by Ozbreed to work on their 30+ free plant library (which are all Australian). Nothing has changed in terms of my commitment to completing a nice range of Australian natives and in fact I am working on a Kings park special right now.

                                          I also have to be realistic about the economics of supply and demand, NZ and Australia is a tiny market compared with the rest of the world. At the end of the day I still need to eat like everyone else (feel free to order the trees πŸ˜† ) - so if support is lacking then I will find a new market, or run away and join the circus.

                                          So no, I won't be shelving the Australian project.

                                          Andrew

                                            Andrew, good to hear from!

                                            Firstly, it great stuff you are putting out!
                                            And I'm glad to hear the Oz plants are still on the way.....can't wait to see the King's Park Special.
                                            There is a real need for local native plants but I do understand we have a pretty small market down here.
