Great looking renders Dave. i love the grass. I've always used scatter for grass (since i'm on max 7 and don't have the hair and fur plugin) and it can really bog the system. do you have a quick tutorial on the grass? I know it's just alpha maps, but i haven't really worked with them before so anything would help.
Thanks
Phil

just make a map with a few blades of grass on it, then make an alpha of said map and place it on a plane and do like the wire shows ie copy it over and over :)
