Superb vegetation and grass that a style magazine would describe as "to die for ".
Always good to see a ZBrush scene.
Great picture demonstrating alot of skill, patience and hard work.
Look forward to future scenes which I’m sure will only get better and better untill - their the betterist.

That’s a great looking picture ,Bas…stunning, but i don’t like the position of the tree in the center,…it looks a bit to stiff …and its a very clean scene,…but it’s a WIP and i think in the end it wil be a toprow picture

I made this flower (Horseflower we call it here), I have to make also other kind of flowers, to put in my ‘never ending’ WIP (Thistles). Exept the color, I don’t like this flower because it’s stinking like a horse (wrong side of the horse). The leafs are good to eat in a salad, also rabbits like it! Here we call the leafes ‘Rabbitleafes’.

Wonderful Nature work! Thanks for shareing this with us :)
Ask just about any gardner and they’ll tell you the same thing - forget about soil preparation, it’s all about the fancy placement of zspheres.
You have green fingers indeed Gardener Bas.
The Flooze
Are you using the native zsphere functionality or a zsphere utility in creating these fine models?
This nice day with snow and sunshine I stayed home, ZBrushing. I’ve added some flowers in the Thistle-scene, the little spider is looking now where to make her web, and a stroke of barbed wire is protecting my digital meadow. I’ve worked at some flies too. They have to fly into the scene, one close in front. The tree in the middle is gone, Jantim did not like it. He was right, it was interfering too much. It is nice working on this scene, it feels like shrinking down.
Boozy, what you mean by ‘Are you using the native zsphere functionality or a zsphere utility in creating these fine models?’ Do you mean using ZifClick? Creating the tree I tried to use it, but there were too much ZSpheres, so only a part could made by this script.
Now it’s time to shut down.
Bazzzzzzzz zz
I hope Bas your rest is complete and not to Zzzzzzzzzfilled.
What you described sounds wonderful. We are being teased here and there now with a warm day and sunshine which adds to the wanderlust of spring desires. Almost broke down today and got out the bike, but still too much salt on the roads.
In any event, my picnic blanket and basket are awaiting your masterpiece.
Bas, thanks for the reply - ZifClick that’s the one, I couldn’t remember it’s name.
BZZZZZZ
very nice image
Here is the final piece of this thistle. Always in the evening near the river this flies come to feed the fishes. I hope you like it.
Love the last image in particular. My only negative comment is that on the placement of the bug closest to the viewer where its head is tangent to the barbed wire. To enhance the occlusion effect (overlapping perspective) I think it would be better if the bug was overlapping much more.
I just love the material effect on the abdomen in that last image. Very translucent. Looks like he is ready to fill the gut up with hemoglobin.
This is a beautiful image!!! I loved your thistles before but with the mosquitoes and flowers and that great barbed wire this is simply wonderful. What an inspiration to us all! Keep up the fabulous work.
…country-style image
And fine modelisation

yesss, i like! lots! thats one wonderfully done z-scenery, Bas - with a lot of @#!-stingy details (thistles, flies, barbedwire… ouch!)
i love the fly-model/texture/movements in particular. and among all the marvelous foliage/vegetation the fantastico grass you did. how did you accomplish the latter? is this a single model of a grassleaf placed a zillion times? some picker/orientation magic that did allow you to use a spraystroke without the single strands interconnecting? anything else :)? any info on this would be much appreciated!
getting picky: for some reason (i assume its my uncalibrated monitor) the dandelion flowerheads shading doesnt really “work” for me… more brightness? for me they dont look like they are lit by the same sunset that reflects in the flies eyes.
this said: squared!
That’s great Bas!!!
Almost missed the little spider! Great touch!!
