3DS Max - Mental Ray - forest pack - Photoshop
Here's a foliage test done using mental ray. I've got the high quality (2000 px wide) images rendering out in 30 mins. C&C are welcome. The point of this project was to see how much I could optimize MR for exterior scenes with lots of vegetation.
I would like to thank James Insley for his work with MR vegetation. Your grass post in the cgarchitect forum was very helpful.
