Yeah the 'trial'. I don't get why companies don't just give away all their really old software for free. I mean, who the hell is gonna pay for a copy of MAX 1.5? They should just be available free for download.

Yeah, that's nice. Well, not nice - actually, it makes me feel kind of sick, with that aqua/greenish colour. But that makes it a strong emotive pic. Good. :nod:

Ohh, ****! :jaw::yes:

LOL that render was actually made by my 10-year old brother using Bryce; I don't know what he did in there, but it turned out pretty good, so I decided to put it up here. He sucks at both 2D art and games though, so I have an edge over him there. :D

No kidding. The thing is, I know Bryce artists who have been working the prog for months and DREAM of being able to do landscapes like that. I guess he got lucky.... tell him to keep practising. ;)

I wish I could do ones like THUNDAR!!!!

Isn't that what Stanley Kubrick did for the move 2001? :p
