Tom's 2.5d trees + render apps...
-
Yes Gaieus, correct. After exploding one can make it component and it should work fine.

Tom
I deleted the shadow plane and played with the transparencies and textures.

Beautiful, Pete, very painterly!
Sepo, Gai, I exploded the image png and the file jumps from 132k to 161k...how much that affects the drain in SU remains a puzzlement? I suppose making folks aware this needs to be done for some render programs isn't much hassle...?
-
I do not think it is biggy.
-
It'sobviously due to the geometry created. Rendering apps however can (generally) handle much more poly and file size (think of the heavy, high res images) than SU.
-
Cool for me. Had another thought: do these apps render edges...ie. can I build branches with edges only, or do I need a skinny face out at the end?
-
No, edges are never rendered. I can firmly say that for Podium. Pretty sure the other do the same. You need skinny face.

This is my latest work. After 2 or more weeks finally I found a normal way to create trees in sketchup and then render this in maxwell.This is not final render. Here you can see almost 3000 real geometry trees. All teritory will contain almost 14 000 real geometry trees. All trees are exported to maxwell as instances so actually used is only 8 types of trees.
There is also 70 houses of 5 types and each type has 4 different facade types. Su model size almost 110 Mb.
CPU: e6750 overclocked @ 3.2 GHz with 2Gb ram.

Aidus, that's a really impressive and beautiful model/render! I only lack one thing in fact; there are trees (and they are very convincing and look real) but there aren't any bushes/shrubs. It wouldn't even be striking in the foreground (as you look at that area more from above) but in the distance, the field is so "clean" from any other plant. Actually, I first didn't know what is bothering, it is so little strinking.
Nevertheless, as I first said, it's a stunning picture for sure!
(and of course, much-much better than I could ever make 
) -
Gaieus actually I'm working on this
When I finish this work I'll publish it here.PS. Sorry about bad english
