Hi Philip
I've been busy at work (texturing a soccer ball for a Nike ad) so there's been little progress on the terrain. Thanks for the nice comment- as far as I remember you live close to Dover (or are atleast an English native) so I am listening closely to what you say. It's good to know I'm on the right track... and yeah, I checked out some 'burnished' fields and I see what you mean there.
Cheers-
