Some terragen work
I've spent the entire morning playing around with Terragen and this is what I've managed to produce. I understand they aren't brilliant and I aspire to be better but I would like to hear what you think.

Yeah I have seen some amazing ones around too. I will hopefully be able to create some really good ones soon. It is fairly easy you just need a bit of practice with it.

i like them, but to spear, the thing about terragen is that they are incredably easy to make, you make make those pics that he posted in less the 5 mins, terragen is a very nice program, just after a while you don't get any self satisfaction because it is so easy

Took a bit longer than that considering things. The second one up there took 35 minutes to render.

i know that terragen takes a long time to render, i'm saying the actual "work", only takes about 5 mins, but once you hit the render button, it takes like you said, about 10 to 30 mins. depending on the size, and the rendering you don't have to do anything except sit and watch

the rendering on it sucks bad. i am sure they are not bad pictures, it just needs a much better rendering engine.

I am going to work a bit more on it today to make them as realistic as possible and then I'll have a play about with them in Photoshop.
Thanks for the comments
