Yet
Another
Tree
Macro

I've been using POV-Tree and I've tried various other methods, and I just can't
get a tree with which I'm satisfied for close-ups.  So, now I'm trying to make
my own tree macro, inspired in part from Bill's weathered objects macros.  I've
only been working on the trunk so far, but I'm happy with the results at this
point.

I'll be working on this for a while, suggestions and pointers from the experts
are welcome!

By Zeus! You have done it again, Kirk!
Please go on with this excellent work. Your concerns about close up trees is 
also my concern, but I could not imagine how to tackle this. We shall be 
following your progress very closely indeed :-)

Niiice !
That's pretty convincing and a superb add-on for close-up trees!

The best POV-trunk I've ever seen until now!
I'm not an expert but my suggestion is this: on a such tree I'm expect 
now to see roots outcropping on the ground...

Thanks everyone!

Yes, I'll be working on branches (and roots are on the list, too) as I have
time.  When I'm done, I'll post the code.

Most excellent! With the current texture, it looks like the old weathered trunk 
of a dead tree that is missing all of it's bark.
The lone crack near the middle just add some more realism.
Put a few of those in front, then some more "regular" trees from pov-tree behind.

Wowie zowie!! Just incredible, I must say.

Not criticism at all, and perhaps its just me, but the landscape under 
it makes the tree look colossal.  It would look really neat to perhaps 
put some little houses around it or something like that.
