this script shows you a way how you should not do a pot with some cacti in it :D i forgot to place markers for the cacti (tried to improve later on by deleting the cacti-layer and placing new ones with markers, but when i loaded the arrangement as a multimarker it displayed ALL of the faults :D), goofed up all placements and so on... anyway, i hope you’ll find a few ideas in here helpful.

I've always wanted seaweed in a pot..Just kidding,I love the pot very photo realistic.

[juandel]

thank you, my friends! :D

hehehe... there exists a seaweed cactus variety similar to the one i made, drkwarrior (i knew only because a huge one grows at a friends place :) i always liked it’s un-cactusness :D). just searched the net for a proof and came up with this pic (http://members.tripod.de/kakteen_kaktus_haus/kakteen_kaktus_cereus_peruvianus_monstrosus.jpg). methinks it is called cereus peruvianus monstrosus. :cool:name, hmm?

This is a good little image. With your last image and this one, perhaps a ZGardening section could catch on. Just keep an eye open for Robo's Giant Smoking Caterpillars.

lol, Ed! that was what i originally set out to do: an eggtus! looks like you are another scripting-guru... what did you change?

Ron ;) : i assume that you are kidding, but just in case: from v. 1.23 on there is a script palette including a load-button. you download the scripts (like the above one), save name under a name you will remember (i suggest to save them in the z-scripts-folder which comes within the zbrushfolder), hit the load button, browse for that script, hit the appearing play-button and watch the show. this is most fun and very informative with the ones available at pixologic.com, a lot of those around here at ZBC and of course the default-ones that come with the soft. to record a script of your own all you have to do is the end-record button in the script-window before quitting the session, as the recording starts automatically upon the start of each session. for more info, check the scriptthreads in the QuickLinks!

doc: cant wait to see what you’ll come up with!

edit: Hi, Dave! :D yeah, let’s do a gardening thread! :D
