I just looked into it, those are paint effects, I don't have a lot of experience with them, when I move around with branches etc, I dont quite get it to look like a pine tree

You've just given me an idea.
I've been making some scenes with grass in but just using
a basic grass shader as havnt wanted to use expensive paint effects grass....
But I'd forgotten about the grass fur preset.
Is it expensive to render? Will it render in mental ray?

On draft?
Expensive as in, is it heavy to render? At 5 seconds for that frame it looks quite cheap (quick)
I'd be looking at like an average gardens worth of grass.... I'll have to run some tests.
Sorry for the brief thread hijack warhammer...

The fur should work for purposes in the mean time...
