@maqs - Awesome, brilliant character. Very wrong thread for it though. Deserves it's own.
About the grass, well...very easy to make.
Did a quick how-to image for those who wanted. It's just Indigo instances with a grass texture.
Ps. Here's a high res rendering.

You mean how i did the strands? I used Hair And Fur modifier in Max, but it was just the quickest way. You can take the strands as a bunch of splines placed next to each ohter. 1 strand = 1 spline.

Agreed, I guess they are waiting too see the UVs subdivision bug fixed... ZB can generate a lot of seams depending on the UV layout used, a good study case I suppose
Welcome back maqs, I wish I could bang his head... ooops was it me !?
Very nice grass suv, indeed.

These two images are to witness my first attempts in using ENV maps.
The first picture is a simple subject placed on an oren-nayar plane; in the second one I added a simple component of a grass patch (a present from bbb when he still was among us) instanced around to get a maqette-grass feeling, don't know if I got the effect: you tell me guys
One thing that stroke me is the sharp shadow I get from the HDR (easily spottable in the first image): I could not get any sharp shadow at all when using HDR maps with other rendering engines! Is that a feature of Indigo or is it only a matter of HDRI? I post here a low-res jpg just so you know what map I'm using.
Cheers!

Actualy fryrender gives sharp shadows aswell.
And i guess it depends on the hdri image aswell, cause in the one you used the sun shows pretty well.
Looks very nice tough

yes, it is very strong related to the actual dynamic range of an HDRI!
There are a lot envMaps around where the lightsources/sun in the image isn't bright enough compared to the rest of the image to generate a sharp shadow!
Because of this there is the request for EnvMap + Sun possibilities in Indigo. The idea is to set the Sun position at the same spot in your viewport as it is represented in the EnvMap...
The sIBL archive you got your EnvMap from actually has a file that stores such information, also sun color etc. just open it with a texteditor...

Pib, I'd reccomend you add materials to that first scene.. it looks photorealistic already,materials can only make it look better.

The leaves are very nice. Just a diffuse transmitter?

@Whaat
Looks very good. I'm also interested of how the leaves are made?
