The Wishing Tree

Software Used: Vue 5 Infinite | Photshop CS2

Description: Based on my previous Windhamhill scene. I wasn't so happy with the previous scene - and decided to change the mountain scape. During this - when I heard the song "The Wishing Tree" from Seamus McGuire - it's a fascinating instrumental piece - and I opened the plant editor and made this tree from a standart cherry tree model of Vue. Final render took 37 hours to complete with 4500x3000 pixels. Postwork done in Photoshop. Scene contains 3 lights, 1,687,631,610 polys and 4 ecosystems. The tree texture is three mixed materials with bump-map based material distrubiton.
