        I do not have or use Maxwell, I was wondering if you had a demo tree to upload so that someone can test as maybe the few maxwell users here do not have a tree to test with.

        just thinking.

          Actually, what exactly is what you are asking? Maxwell renders any model and it doesn't cough if you have many polygons. πŸ˜• Or you are worried about materials? Maxwell "knows" sss for dingle faced geometry, so you can benefit of that for leafs.

                Hi Tom

                Maxwell render 5min - used the single sided sss on each material - seems fine.

                The level of detail for Maxwell is not enough to warrant creating a material for the leaves...

                Regards

                Andre

                          Wait, so is that one of Tom's trees or not?

                          Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

                                Yeah, Solo mentioned that, and in the 5th post, Tom posted links to his free models. Your renders are great, now try it on one of Tom's models, see if it works πŸ˜„
