how do you mean, "put them in the scene in post production"? you mean adding them later?
because the scene is inside a giantic forest so thats kinda hard.....and I need like huge pines, and there isn't a pine brush.....
Do you know a place where I can download brushes, or do you know how to make them on you're own??
anyways thanks for the help, and I have maya 8.5 at the moment
not to happy with the change in the interface, but Im getting used to it. Then I will grab that version of vue as you said gingerbloke, it just cost me €25,- so why not.....
