here is some grass i have been working on.
trying to get a realistic grass effect instead of flat greens etc. tell me what it is looking like and how i can improve it.

the scene is going to be grass dunes slowly turning into a beach with the sea and sky in the background.

oh yeah and i got my gcse results: 5 b's and 2 a's!!

i like it, its on photoshop i suppose. i never really get in to background. water is harsh, moreover when its rainy. put the sand and coastal dirt alerady, the grass it self already stand out.

Ezekiel 25:17

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
