Here is another heavy scene, all physical geometry and completely assembled in Keyshot. Man would a proper in scatter/instancing feature be a god cent. Displacement mapping would be a big plus too

[rfollett]

how did you create the hedges and grass?

[KeyShot]

Very cool. Displacement mapping is coming in v8 (already working in our dev builds).
How would  you like the scatter / instancing to work? I assume you know of the pattern tool for copying
geometry?

First comment re: How did I...  The hedges are model download from Turbosquid, textured and manually placed. The grass is also a purchased model, a 3'X3' patch. The pattern tool was used to make a larger patch then placed as needed. The patter tool makes a repeating pattern so a bit of Photshop to remove that.

Second Comment re: How would I like to see scatter/instancing work... The patter tool is great for just that making unified repeating patters with a single object however it lack the finer controls for randomization like Trees and Grass. It also lack the ability to instance on assigned objects. i.e scatter grass, tree, plants on a terrain with contours. Applying fur, hair and many other instances to specific objects. I know Keyshot was initially designed for product specific work but as you can probably see, Keyshot users are pushing the boundaries. It is such a powerful program but lacks a few features that would in my opinion put it ahead of renders like Maxwell, Vray and Octane just to mention a few.

Another great shot! Glad you're sharing your work here. I've seen it on your site before. Ver nice.
