Hi Norbert,

Thanks, I think it looks OK close up but just does not look as much like 
moss and more like some kind of alien plant life which reminds me a bit 
of some of Christoph Gerber's images e.g.

http://gerberc.deviantart.com/art/Moon-21-336009591

I did some really close up renders of the moss (probably had a different 
texture as well). I think they are interesting but I would not guess it 
was moss at this level of detail..

BTW, your first attempt at this round of the tc-rtc looks very impressive.

Sean
