Yeah, looks much more stoned... erm, I mean, stone-ish now.

Floor needs work. But I guess you know already ;)

Yup. Floor has had no work at all yet! It'll be the next thing I look at, now
I'm more or less happy with the structure. Time to revisit proximity patterns
and grass population...

At least I can have a break from these stupid radiosity-heavy test renders :)

I'm working on a macro which kinda acts like the ivy generator, maybe you 
(or I) could use your scene as a test for it soon? I think it would be 
perfect, as your scene has enough complexity to facilitate development of 
the macro so that it would perform properly under most all circumstances.

I still have to create the leaf objects of the ivy, right now I'm testing 
with the moss object and core.
I'm going to expand it to do shrooms, ivy, moss, vines etc..

I havent figured out how to get it to span voids yet, but I have a few 
ideas.

I love writing abstracted macros...they are so much more useful than ones 
written for a specific purpose.

Yum yum... I like, I like. Begins to look like a place I want to put my 
hands on.... :-)

Looks nice!  When do we get to see it with the floor?  Why do I keep expecting
to see tourists?
