Hehe... Me too.
Really cool image (I too have to play around with Vue but I guess it'd take me awhile to get where you are at).
Anyway, "special thanks" for the image's aspect ratio; when resizing it to fit to the TDC article, it came out exactly as needed for the style sheet (480x270)
(I hope you don't mind me posting it there)

Thanks y'all and cheers Csaba on the Catchup mention.
I need to work on my dust particle animation skills before even attempting the animation, anyway I did another rally image.

thats awesome....what'd make it that much more awesome would be a few auxiliary lights and headlights glowing!..... would go with the time of day...

No, it isn't! It's bloody depressing, that's what it is!
I won't ever be able to model like Captain Yee-haw can.

ahahahaha I seacond that Stinkie

great images! not perfectly realistic, which i think suits skp more
small crit: the wheels on rally car would probably be turned more to the camera, the dust suggests its turning adn the normal path to follow would be between the dunes
-
Awesome scene and render but .....the car is not moving?
-
Fantastic images. The only issue I have is with the Bigfoot image. I just don't see what the flying insect adds to that picture.
-
nice work pete, vue is looking great, but rather how you deal with it. looking forward to the plants pack
[edit] hope there are some low poly trees in there (if there is such a thing!!)
-
Awesome pete...keep pushing it further because these are amazing
-
you are a painter, not modeler pete grat job

Its a device to help bring the viewer into the scene. And with any device (sunset skies, for example) it needs to be done in such a way that it brings the viewer in, but does not distract/detract. I like the bug, but it might be too visible. Perhaps it is close in the foreground? It is the only thing that is about 5 feet (1.5m) from the camera. The ground seems to be cut off about 15ft (4m) from the camera. Maybe the bug just needs to be pushed back a little bit.
Or maybe not. Maybe its just fine where it is. It doesn't really bother me that much.

Great work. My only crit is that Bigfoot is a Ford truck not a Dodge.
-
Very Nice Work!
What do you use in both pictures for the grass and sand? Is it geometry? texture? both? Is it part of VUE or part of your sketchup model? -
Halroach, it's all geometry, no images used.
All done in SU (except trees), only rendered and textured with Vue, the grass and plants are created in SU and used as an ecosystem in Vue. The ground is a node based texture with slight displacement.
-
Is that animation coming along some time, Pete?
-
what's the right answer? 
, yeah, you see...um, well, hmmm. dunno.I'll get around to it, soon-ish.
anyway, another image, I'm concentrating on terrain and integration of roads, paths, etc.
