Hi Christoph. Thanks for the fast reply and link to this thread. Although
it's already an older image the only thing that strikes me as odd in this
image is the depth of the rings on top of the stump. I haven't seen this in
real life (not seen is ofcourse not the same as not possible). All stumps
I've seen usually have a flat top (except for the occasionally higher parts
created by multiple chops or near the outer rings, parts where the tree
broke off in the end). But I haven't seen rings with depth yet.

But anyway .. it's way beyond my capabilities for now. I will try making a
plane covered with grass first :)

Best regards,
NumbC
