Wow ! This is one of those ones that I could open up and just stare at like a dog who just got shown a card trick ha-ha, right over my head. Awesome work though, just astounding really. Smile

Bob, I'm totally amazed!!! Excellent Work!!! Smile Smile Smile

This is only your second filter??? I thought it was hard enough to create one leaf.....then you create a vinyard like drinking a glass of water Smile

Can't wait to see what you come up with for your third one Wink Smile

I am completely blown away. I had no idea this kind of thing was even possible. It really gives me a lot to think about. Very nice work.

Woo! Thanks guys! I was going to submit this on Friday but i got the 0kb (which i am NOW aware of) crash on my final save and lost all that days work! But as usual when i must redo stuff after crashes, it turned out better than it was before. I did have a cooler shadow solution before but this will do! Fun stuff! Big grin

I hope that you get 5 HU and never leave FF, you filters are amazing! Truly, you have the green thumb of filter forging.

I had a mini-review but it got wiped by a "Service Temporarily Unavailable" message.

In any case, BenBeckwith, you sound like you've got a good spirit of growth: a guy who knows how to take a setback and turn it into a comeback! Hahaha.

But seriously, this filter caught my eye when I first saw it. I've been a cautious-yet-openminded skeptic when it comes to plant filters in Filter Forge, and I've got to try this out. I just hope it runs reasonably fast too.

I, too, like the above praises, encourage you to keep on keeping on and creating more in this line — with your focused and continued persistence, you'll be recognized a master of flora in our community! (Don't let that stop you from branching out, tho!)
I'm enjoying using Filter Forge to create http://torley.com/textures

Pun intended? Big grin It's certainly not the quickest to render, but it's not meant as a quick filter for photos so it's forgivable i hope Smile I definitely love emulating real word stuff, specifically plants. I've had a good Mayan style brick wall texture around long before i made these 2 filters so i hope to get that up at some point.

You are already amazing at creating filters; however, the more you create the more shortcuts you will learn; so when you re-visit your old filters you find ways to make them quicker and quicker. So I imagine that after awhile you could make this one a little bit quicker. And if not, who cares it is awesome.

Do a good turn daily.

Freaking genius idea Very well done, it impressed me very much which is very hard to do. Instant editors pick.Smile The render could be much faster though. Sad
